IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2
Configure the Warehouse Proxy Agent using the Tivoli Enterprise Portal
This function allows you to remotely configure the Warehouse Proxy Agent using the Tivoli Enterprise Portal. You can use this function anytime the Warehouse Proxy Agent configuration needs to be changed.
For remote management of monitoring agents in general, install the appropriate OS monitoring agent. For instance, to remotely manage a Warehouse Proxy Agent on Linux systems, install the Monitoring Agent for Linux OS on the same server. To remotely manage a Warehouse Proxy Agent on Windows systems, install the Monitoring Agent for Windows on the same server.
Also, to remotely configure the agent, the Warehouse Proxy Agent itself must be added to the remote depot. The CD image contains a deploy directory where the Warehouse Proxy Agent bundle is located. From this directory you can run the following command:
tacmd addBundles -i . -t hd
- The Test Connection button is not available when configuring through the Tivoli Enterprise Portal.
- The Warehouse Proxy Agent for the target platform being configured must have already been added to the Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server depot for the configuration to succeed.
- Browsing for JDBC JAR files is not supported since they are on a remote system. You must enter the comma separated, fully qualified list of JDBC JAR files. The same as you do in the CLI.
The Deployment Status Detail workspace should show a SUCCESSFUL Transaction for the Configure command against the Warehouse Proxy Agent. The configuration file on the remote system where Warehouse Proxy Agent is installed should contain the corresponding changes executed on the configuration panel. Configuration parameters for the Warehouse Proxy Agent are set in the following files according to operating system:
Afterwards, the Warehouse Proxy Agent operates as usual when configuration is successful. Connectivity of the Warehouse Proxy Agent can be checked on the Warehouse Proxy Agent Status workspace.
- ITM_HOME\TMAITM6\khdenv
For example: C:\IBM\ITM\TMAITM6\khdenv
- ITM_HOME/config/hd.ini
For example: /opt/IBM/ITM/config/hd.ini
To enable this function, complete the following steps:
- Open the Tivoli Enterprise Portal.
- Right-click on the Warehouse Proxy Agent in the navigator tree.
- Choose Configure. The configuration panel for the Warehouse Proxy Agent is displayed.
The log file can be found in the %CANDLEHOME%/cnp/logs directory.
