Integration for Tivoli

Installing the HP Insight Integration with the TEC 28
NOTE: For non-TME adapters, the default UNIX® configuration path is usr/tecad. For
Windows® platforms, the default path is C:\tecsnmp.
8. Select Set and Close to complete the configuration process and initiate the Config_snmp.sh script. This
script amends the existing tecad_snmp.cds and tecad_snmp.oid files on the target systems with the
Fibre Channel Management and the Insight SNMP event classes and definitions and initiates the TEC
SNMP Adapter.
Configuring a Tivoli ACF SNMP Adapter
The Tivoli ACF enables easier remote deployment and configuration of an SNMP Adapter. One advantage
of using ACF with the Insight Integration is the deployment of the HP event definitions file (ins_evt.cds). The
ins_evt.cds file contains the HP ProLiant and Fibre Channel Management SNMP to Tivoli event mappings and
HP ProLiant and Fibre Channel Management trap definitions.
When using a non-TME adapter, the HP event definition file is copied to the target location as part of the
Configure SNMP Adapter task supplied with the Insight Integration. When using the ACF method, the HP
event definition file is copied to the target location during the creation of the adapter. This method ensures
that the ins_evt.cds file is always in the correct location before running the Configure SNMP Adapter task
provided with the Insight Integration.
NOTE: Although the ACF is supported on both Tivoli Managed Nodes and Endpoints, the ACF
SNMP Adapter is supported only on Endpoint (TMA) systems and cannot be configured on Tivoli
Managed Nodes.
To configure a Tivoli ACF SNMP Adapter:
1. Configure the Tivoli environment (TMR server, gateways, and TEC).
2. Install the ACF on the TMR server and gateways.
3. Configure the TMA Endpoints.
4. Install the HP Insight Integration for Tivoli. For installation instructions, see "Installing the HP Insight
Integration for Tivoli (on page 18)."
5. Create a dataless ACF profile manager and ACP.
6. Populate the newly created profile with the target Endpoints.
7. Edit the profile to configure the adapter type. The profile must include the tecad_snmp entry, location
and port definitions for the Event Server, and location of the HP event definitions file (ins_evt.cds).
8. Distribute the profile to deploy the ACF Adapter to the target Endpoints.
9. Modify the Configure SNMP Adapter task provided with the Insight Integration to set the profile as a
subscriber.
10. Run the Configure SNMP Adapter job provided with Insight Integration to amend the tecad_snmp.cds
and tecad_snmp.oid files with the HP event classes and definitions.
NOTE: The ACF Adapter is supported only on Tivoli Endpoint systems.
Deploying and configuring an ACF SNMP Adapter
1. Confirm that the TME is configured and operating correctly before attempting to configure the SNMP
Adapter (TMR server, Tivoli Gateways, and the TEC application).
