Designing and Managing Behavior Models
-
Creating Multi-Alarm Behavior Models - IfUpDownStatusByType - IfNmDemand Alarm -
An IfNmDemand alarm is instantiated whenever an interface-type alarm transitions to the up, down, testing, or ground state.
When the alarm is created and transitions to the IfNmDemandPoll state, it executes an Inform action that causes HP OpenView Network Node Manager to demand poll the appropriate device and reflect the current state of the device and its interfaces in Network Node Manager's topology maps. The Inform action that requests the demand poll is made outside of the status alarms -- in a node-scope alarm -- to help cut back to the number of requests that can be sent to Network Node Manager.
