4.1 Creating an NNMi incident forwarding filter definition file
The NNMi incident forwarding filter definition file is used to specify conditions for converting NNMi incidents acquired from NNMi into JP1 events. This file defines the following information:
-
Conditions for determining the NNMi incidents that are to be converted into JP1 events (filter conditions)
-
Correspondences between NNMi incident attributes and JP1 event attributes (mapping conditions)
Only those NNMi incidents that satisfy the filter conditions are converted into JP1 events according to the specified mapping conditions and then registered into the event database of JP1/Base.
- Creating an NNMi incident forwarding filter definition file
-
There is no NNMi incident forwarding filter definition file at the time of installation. You must copy the sample file, rename it, and then edit the sample definitions in the file. If you do not create an NNMi incident forwarding filter definition file, NNMi incidents will not be converted into JP1 events.
The name and storage location of the sample NNMi incident forwarding filter definition file are shown below.
- File name
-
imevtgw_nnmi_forward_filter.conf
imevtgw_nnmi_forward_filter.conf.sample (sample file)
- Storage location
-
- In Windows:
-
-
Physical host: E-for-NNMi-path\conf
-
Logical host: shared-folder\JP1EG4NNMI\conf
-
- In UNIX:
-
-
Physical host: /etc/opt/jp1eg4nnmi/conf
-
Logical host: shared-directory/jp1eg4nnmi/conf
-
- Note
-
Each attribute value of an NNMi incident converted to a JP1 event reflects the value at the time that JP1/IM - EG for NNMi obtained the NNMi incident. Keep in mind that if any NNMi incident information is updated after the incident is converted to a JP1 event, the updated information will not be reflected with the JP1 event.
