Modifying the HPOMfOV Description File

HPOMfOV 2.0.1 1

Technical Note

Using the pdclean command within HP Output Manager for OpenView to clean a queue both cleans and disables

the queue. After the queue is cleaned, the queue cleaned notice is recognized but the queue disabled notice is not

processed successfully by the Event Manager. This behavior is attributed to the HPOMfOV description file not

matching the OID and generated Event Message that is sent to the OVO console. Therefore, the Event Manager does

recognize the Queue Disabled Event Message, but the message is not sent to the OV console.

The HPOMfOV description file must be updated to match the OID and generate the appropriate Event Message to be

sent to the OVO console. The following sections describe how to update the HPOMfOV description file before and

after an installation is performed on the Management Server.

Modifying the description file before installing on the Management

Server

1. Untar the HPOMFOV.tar file.

3. Edit ./config.upload/C/EXECUTABLES/hp/ipf32/hpux1122/cmds/hpomfov.s by adding

ids_dm,..1.0.10175.1.0.0.6.125.2,*.

4. Edit ./config.upload/C/EXECUTABLES/hp/ipf32/hpux1122/cmds/hpomfov.d by adding the
