5.2.3Automatic Monitoring of the ServerView Status

The following components automatically monitor this ServerView status:

Data Collection for the MIB object sniInvCondition from the INVENTORY-MIB

The Threshold and Rearm events for this Data Collection

A reaction script for evaluating the values received, which sets the status of the ServerView component symbol accordingly.

IAll devices for which this status monitoring is enabled must be configured as Fujitsu Siemens servers, i.e., represented by at least one symbol with the symbol type FujitsuSiemens in the map. If you do not want any such status monitoring to be performed, you can undo the configuration of the nodes.

5.2.4How Status Monitoring Works

The value of the MIB variable sniInvCondition is periodically polled for each required Fujitsu Siemens server via the Data Collection.

ITo keep the network load down to a minimum, you should adapt the “generic” Data Collection created during the installation of the integration package (with the source definition “*.*.*.*”) before using it.

The related threshold monitoring is defined so that both the Threshold and the Rearm events are triggered at each successful poll.

As a reaction to the Threshold event, the \usr\ov\bin\setServerViewStatus.bat reaction script is executed. This script receives the NetView-Object-ID of the corresponding server and the current value of the MIB variable sniInvCondition as its parameters. No automatic reaction is involved in the Rearm event. It simply serves to reactivate the Threshold event.

The \usr\ov\bin\setServerViewStatus.bat script determines a corresponding NetView status from the ServerView status and the selection name of the related ServerView component symbol from the NetView-Object-ID of the server involved. The determined status of this ServerView component symbol is then set in the submap of the server using the OV_Set_Status_Color event.
