Prerequisites
This section describes the hardware and software prerequisites you need to install and use Netcool/Precision TN on the supported platforms.
Netcool/OMNIbus version 3.6 or 7.x must already be installed on the same machine as Netcool/Precision TN in order to interoperate with Netcool/OMNIbus. However, the ObjectServer does not have to be running; Netcool/Precision TN uses libraries from the Netcool/OMNIbus installation to forward events to Netcool/OMNIbus, and for event correlation.
Netcool/OMNIbus can be obtained using your Passport Advantage account.
