6.8.4 Setup for linkage with HP NNM

This subsection describes the setup for linking with HP NNM version 8 or earlier. For details about the setup for linking with HP NNMi using JP1/IM - EG for NNMi, see the manual Job Management Partner 1/Integrated Management - Event Gateway for Network Node Manager i Description, User's Guide and Reference.

Organization of this subsection

(1) Setup for using system-monitoring objects for monitoring

To link with HP NNM version 8 or earlier, you must convert SNMP traps issued by HP NNM to JP1 events so that the events can be monitored by Central Scope.

For additional details about setting up the linkage, see the following manual:

(a) For the HP NNM host

To perform setup at the manager where HP NNM version 8 or earlier is installed:

  1. Set the SNMP trap conversion function of JP1/Base.

    To convert SNMP traps to JP1 events, set the SNMP trap conversion function of JP1/Base. The JP1/Base SNMP trap conversion settings are the same as those used to link JP1/Cm2/SSO version 8 or earlier.

    For details about how to set the SNMP trap conversion function, see the chapter that describes event conversion settings in the JP1/Base User's Guide.

    The following is an overview of the setting procedure:

    • Set the linkage between NNM and JP1/Base (execute imevtgw_setup).

    • Set the URL of NNM.

    • Set the JP1 event destination.

    • Set the filter definition file (snmpfilter.conf).

  2. Edit the filter definition file for the SNMP trap conversion function of JP1/Base.

    Add the contents of the sample file (snmpfilter_im_sample.conf) that contains settings for converting the SNMP traps handled by Central Scope to the filter definition file for the SNMP trap conversion function (snmpfilter.conf) of JP1/Base.

    The file names are as follows:

    • Filter definition file for the SNMP trap conversion function

    In Windows:

    Base-path\conf\evtgw\snmpfilter.conf

    In UNIX:

    /etc/opt/jp1base/conf/evtgw/snmpfilter.conf

    • Sample file of Central Scope

    In Windows:

    Scope-path\conf\snmpfilter_im_sample.conf

    In UNIX:

    /etc/opt/jp1scope/conf/snmpfilter_im_sample.conf

Notes:
  • The plus sign (+) at the beginning of the sample file is a setting for loading SNMP trap variable binding to JP1 events. Do not remove it.

  • There is a limit to the size of a filter definition file. In the filter definition file, add only definitions of SNMP traps that are to be monitored in your environment.

    For details about the limitation on the size of a filter definition file, see the JP1/Base User's Guide.
