Complete these steps to use the Manage Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Services window on a Linux Intel or UNIX computer to configure the Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Automation Server.

  1. Log on to the computer where the automation server is installed.

  2. Start the Manage Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Services utility:

    1. Run...

      ...where:

      -h (optional) An option used to specify the installation directory.

    The Manage Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Services window is displayed.

  3. Right-click Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Automation Server and click Configure.

  4. Complete your Registry Services connection details and automation server connection details.

    1. When you select Configure Registry Services connection, you must specify the correct Protocol, Hostname, and Port number for the WebSphere Application server where Registry Services is installed.

      You must select HTTPS as the protocol if you are using Security Services in addition to Registry Services.

      The following criteria apply to the User and Password fields:

      • Providing both a user ID and a password is accepted.

      • Leaving both the user ID and a password fields blank is accepted.

      • Providing one parameter without the other is not accepted.

      When the OSLC Performance Monitoring service provider is configured for a Hub monitoring server that is enabled for Hot Standby, a value must be configured for the Acting Hub Alias. The acting hub alias must match the acting hub alias configured for the OSLC Performance Monitoring service provider associated with the other Hub monitoring server in the Hot Standby environment. The acting hub alias is used to create a single service provider entry in Registry Services for the Hot Standby environment and each Hot Standby environment must have a unique alias value.

      The acting hub alias cannot exceed 128 characters. Valid characters are alphanumerics, -, _ , and period.

    2. In the Automation Server connection information section, provide the HTTP protocol and port for clients to connect to the automation server.
