Introduction

Like all OpenView plug-ins, the SMART Plug-In for WebLogic Server

(WLS-SPI) is easy to use. You should have installed the software, configured the

WebLogic Server SPI connections, and deployed the templates. In the OVO

which templates are most useful to you and which you might want to change.

This chapter will assist you by providing further detail on the templates and how

to make those changes. In addition, the chapter will also provide information on
