226 Tivoli Business Systems Manager Version 2.1: End-to-End Business Impact Management
Event Enabler: ibmtiv9
Connection Status: Connected
Enabled for connection at startup.
Port: Default Port
RetryTime: Default
Done.
By default the TCP/IP port 4030 is used for event enablement to agent listener
communication. You can see from Example 7-4 on page 225 that when the agent
listener starts, it will connect to an event enabler running on ibmtiv9. You can
change any of the default parameters, such as the TCP/IP port, by using the
gemeeconfig command.
7.3 IBM Tivoli Monitoring modules integration
IBM Tivoli Monitoring modules, which are based on IBM Tivoli Monitoring version
5.1.1, replace most of the Tivoli Manager for products. Although they are based
on IBM Tivoli Monitoring, the interface to IBM Tivoli Business Systems Manager
uses TEC instead of common listener as discussed in Chapter 8, “IBM Tivoli
Monitoring integration” on page 249.
This section demonstrates the integration of IBM Tivoli Monitoring for Databases:
DB2 with IBM Tivoli Business Systems Manager. These steps set up the
integration:
1. Define IBM Tivoli Monitoring for Databases resources to Tivoli Business
Systems Manager. This includes defining the object types, icons, operational
tasks, and other necessary attributes. Use the installation program in the
TBSM subdirectory of the
IBM Tivoli Monitoring for Databases
CD-ROM. Run
install.bat on the Tivoli Business Systems Manager database server. The
installation will copy the uninstallation program and start the initialization
script called <component>_init_tbsm.sh, where component indicates the
component to be installed.
2. Event enablement is already installed on our system so the next step is to
modify the rulebase to forward DB2 events to it. To do this we use the
Configure Event Server task. If you have installed event enablement on this
event server, this task recognizes it and compiles the rule base that forwards
events to IBM Tivoli Business Systems Manager. You can see the addition of
a new rule db2_to_TBSM.rls in Example 7-5.
