Starting the database

You must start your database as described in "Starting the database" on page 44 before starting the Netcool/Precision TN Server.

Starting the Netcool/Precision TN server for visualization

It is recommended that you first log in as root. From the <netcool_install_dir>/precisiontn/bin directory, enter:

./precisiontn

Opening an event list

To open the Netcool/OMNIbus event list:

1.Start the Netcool/OMNIbus event list using the command: $OMNIHOME/nco_event
