DX Unified Infrastructure Management

Hi,

The UIM is integrated with the ticket system that uses fields (Host Name) to register IC.

So can I count as tickets for device.

The problem is that some probes, such as (vmware and ad_server) the field (Host Name) using the operating system's hostname, but I need to use another name pattern.

I believe I'll need a script to make this change. If anyone has something, thank you.

Thank you.

Sounds like a job for alarm_enrichment https://wiki.ca.com/display/UIMPGA/v4.7+alarm_enrichment+Raw+Configuration

I thought that too, but I think it has to do with (pre-processor).

It needs to rename the "source" before the alarm go to the alarm console.

I'm trying to make a script to change the hostname, based on "nimid" but still can not.

al = alarm.list ("hostname", "ABCD")

if al ~ = nil then

    for i = 1, # al

       al = a [i]

       printf ("% s% s", a.nimid, a.hostname)

       b = alarm.get (a.nimid)

       x = {}

       x.hostname = "XPTO"

       x.nimid = b.nimid

       --x.level = NIML_MINOR

       --x.prevlevel = b.level

       --x.visible = 0

       alarm.set ( x )

    end

end

Hi,

It took a little more out!

I managed as follows:

1) Create a script. In my case I will need to set all hostname which are being monitored in VMware (hard job!). Not to need to create several preproc-rules;

2) Create a pre-processing rules according to the criteria that you want, in my case to put all VMware probes;

3) Set the script to be used;

4) Be happy!

Hi Sandro,

Thanks por pointing out the example. I`ve implemented a similar script on our environment and its working as expected.

However, and although the alarms are coming with the changed source/origin, USM does not seem to group them under the new host.

So my question is, are you using USM to group alarms with changed origin under that particular host?

Thanks.-
