19.2.1 Changing the Custom Poller collections export directory

NNMi writes the data from the collections you export into the following directory:

• Windows: %NNM_DATA%\shared\nnm\databases\custompoller\export

• UNIX: $NNM_DATA/shared/nnm/databases/custompoller/export

To change the directory into which NNMi writes its Custom Poller files, follow these steps:

1. Edit the following file:

   • Windows: %NNM_PROPS%\nms-custompoller.properties

   • UNIX: $NNM_PROPS/nms-custompoller.properties

2. Look for the exportdir entry.

   This entry is similar to the following line:

   #!com.hp.nnm.custompoller.exportdir=base-directory-to-export-custom-poller-metrics

   To configure NNMi to write Custom Poller collection information into the C:\CustomPoller directory, change the line as follows:

   com.hp.nnm.custompoller.exportdir=C:/CustomPoller

   Important note

   For the directory delimiter character, use a forward slash (/), not a backslash (\), in Windows as well.

3. Restart the NNMi management server:

   a. Run the ovstop command on the NNMi management server.

   b. Run the ovstart command on the NNMi management server.
