Integrating NerveCenter with HP OpenView IT/Operations - The NerveCenter IT/Operations Platform Adapter -
While the OpenView Platform Adapter allows NerveCenter to retrieve node data from IT/Operations, NerveCenter requires an additional platform adapter, called semsopca, for integrating with other Operations Center features.
You can control certain aspects of the NerveCenter IT/O Platform Adapter from the command line. Semsopca is a Open-supplied interface that enables NerveCenter to send and receive IT/Operations messages. NerveCenter setup installs the IT/Operations Platform Adapter when OpenView Platform Adapter integration is selected. The proper syntax is:
semsopca [-agent] [-v1]
Connects to the OpC agent interface. By default, semsopca connects to the OpC server interface.
Pipes semsopca messages to the UNIX shell console.
-v1 switch is equivalent to setting the UNIX environment variable NL_OPC_VERBOSE = 1.| The OpenView Platform Adapter | Using IT/Operations as a node source |
