IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2
Upgrade existing IBM Tivoli Monitoring events to use new OMNIbus attributes
If you are upgrading from IBM Tivoli Monitoring Version 6.2.2 (or earlier) to the latest version of IBM Tivoli Monitoring, you must upgrade the existing monitoring events in the Netcool/OMNIbus ObjectServer alerts.status table to use a new OMNIbus attribute.
The task in this section should be completed by the Netcool/OMNIbus Administrator.
To upgrade you apply the itm_migrate.sql file provided with the IBM Tivoli Monitoring Event Synchronization component to the ObjectServer.
The command to configure OMNIbus pipes the SQL command set into the SQL command-line tool and performs the updates to the ObjectServer.
Update the Object Server database with the following commands:
%OMNIHOME%\..\bin\redist\isql -U username -P password -S server_name < path_to_file\itm_migrate.sqlWhere:
- $OMNIHOME
- Is the system-defined variable defining the installation location of OMNIbus.
- username
- Is the OMNIbus Object Server user name.
- password
- Is the OMNIbus Object Server password.
- server_name
- Is the OMNIbus Object Server name defined for process control.
- path_to_file
- Is the fully qualified path to the specified SQL file.
$OMNIHOME/bin/nco_sql -user username -password password -server server_name < path_to_file/itm_migrate.sqlWhere:
- $OMNIHOME
- Is the system-defined variable defining the installation location of OMNIbus.
- username
- Is the OMNIbus Object Server user name.
- password
- Is the OMNIbus Object Server password.
- server_name
- Is the OMNIbus Object Server name defined for process control.
- path_to_file
- Is the fully qualified path to the specified SQL file. The SQL files are located in the event_sync_install_dir/omnibus directory where event_sync_install_dir is the location where the IBM Tivoli Monitoring Event Synchronization component is installed.
