TEC Adapter Package Setup

When setting up the TEC Adapter package, watch for error messages, particularly failures of Tivoli commands. Most errors are likely to be permission-related. There is also the possibility of encountering Tivoli-generated errors when compiling the task library or creating and compiling the rule base.

To set Up the TEC Adapter Package

During the setup process, you will be prompted to enter configuration information. Enter the information that is appropriate for your system in response to the following prompts:

1. Type the display name.

   For example: host name :0.0.

2. Type the port number.

   The default port number is 2323.

3. Type the region name.

   This is the name of an existing Tivoli Policy Region.

4. Type y at the prompt to restart the Event Server, or n if you do not want to restart the server.

5. Type y at the prompt to restart the Sun Management Center Adapter, or n if you do not want to restart the adapter.

6. Type y at the prompt to restart the Java Application, or n if you do not want to restart the application.

During the setup process, the script performs the following actions:

• Copies files from the Tivoli Integration packages to the following directories:

  • $BINDIR/TME/TEC/adapters

  • /opt/SUNWsymon/addons/Tivoli

• Adds the event server's name to the $BINDIR/TME/TEC/adapters/etc/tecad_symon.conf file.

• Creates a Tivoli source group for Sun Management Center software.

• Compiles and installs the Sun Management Center Task Library to the Tivoli Policy Region.

• Creates, compiles, and loads the Sun Management Center rule base to Tivoli.

• If you answered yes to restart the Event Server, restart the SunMC Adapter, or restart the Java Application when setting up the adapter package, the Event Server, the Sun Management Center Adapter, and the Java Application will be restarted.
