13.13CUSTOMIZING ICONS 13.13.1 Icon Labels

NOTE

Modifications to fields other than “Label” in the Symbol Description are not supported and may adversely affect system behavior.

To change icon labels, depress the right mouse button while positioned on the icon and select Describe/Modify Symbol. Enter the information in the “Label” field.

13.13.2 Object Descriptions

To add object descriptions to the underlying database, depress the right mouse button while positioned on the icon and select Describe/Modify Object. Enter the object description in the “Comments” field. The object description might include the name of the person responsible for the equipment, etc.

Note that if there are multiple icons associated with the database object, all symbols will have access to the description.

13.13.3 Icon Bitmaps

Icon bitmaps may be modified, but doing so is not recommended. HP-UX has an icon editor tool which may be used to easily tailor the bitmap. The /usr/OV/symbols/C/EDACS registration files provide the association of symbol to bitmap. Each bitmap is composed of a pixel and mask file. The pixel bitmap is new_bm.38.p and the mask bitmap is new_bm.38.m. If the EDACS bitmaps in /usr/OV/bitmaps/C are modified, they can be restored from /usr/EDACS/bitmaps/C. Bitmaps of sizes 38, 32, 28, and 20 are required to handle various sized icons which occur with window resizing.

13.14 LOADING MIBS

OpenView comes preloaded with RFC-1213 (MIB II) and HP-UNIX MIBs only. EDACS MIBs will be automatically loaded when the edacsInstall utility is run. Please refer to the “Loading MIBs” section in the HP OpenView Network Node Manager User’s Guide for detailed information.
