26.5.4 Setting up automatic actions

1. Determine the automatic actions that are set for NNM.

   

2. Copy the action scripts of the NNM management station to the NNMi management server.

   In this case, the file location is not important.

3. In the NNMi console, from the Configuration workspace, choose Incident Configuration.

4. For each NNM event for which an automatic action is set, configure the corresponding NNMi incident with that action (Action Configuration tab).

   To enable an action, you must select the Enabled check box.

5. To match the NNMi actions with NNM actions, set Lifecycle State to Registered.

   

6. Pay attention to the following NNMi configurations:

   • You can configure multiple automatic processes that are generated when events arrive.

   • You can set up one or more additional processes for each lifecycle state (which can be In Progress, Completed, or Closed).

   • You can pass on more incident attributes to commands than was possible with NNM.

   • Because there is no need to register a command in another configuration file before NNMi executes the command, the procedure has become simpler.
