Extending ICE-Linux Monitoring

The file will look similar to the following, but not exactly:

Copy the file to a new working copy:

# cp –p /opt/hptc/nagios/etc/originaltdef.xml \

/opt/hptc/nagios/etc/newtdef.xml

Now edit the newtdef.xml file. Locate this line (it appears as one line in the file but is presented in

two lines because of spacing considerations):

<command command-type="stdout" log="false">/opt/hptc/config/sbin/setup --

batch --ihifile /opt/hptc/config/icelx/cconfig_batch_ihi.ini</command>

And change that line to the following:

<command command-type="stdout" log="false">/opt/hptc/config/sbin/setup --

batch --ihifile /opt/hptc/config/icelx/cconfig_batch_ihi.ini; addbmc

icelx1 demos-cp.example.com v2;

/opt/hptc/bin/setup_management_services --buildmgmtdataini ;

/opt/hptc/bin/setup_management_services –pushmgmtdataini </command>

Where the addbmc icelx demos-cp.example.com v2 command uses your site-specific

parameters. The addbmc command supports a –file option that could also be used here for larger

system counts. After editing, the new definition needs to be installed into HP SIM:

# mxtool –m –f /opt/hptc/nagios/etc/newtdef.xml –x force
