How do I synchronize the Analytics data dictionary table data with the NFM-P for periodic availability monitoring support?
Purpose
Perform the following steps to set the object synchronization interval for tables registered for periodic calculation, such as availability tables. This procedure only needs to be performed once to set the interval for all relevant tables.
Steps
1 |
Log in as the nsp user from the main server station. | ||
2 |
Navigate to the /opt/nsp/nfmp/server/nms/config directory. | ||
3 |
Create a backup copy of the nms-server.xml file. Note: You must perform the steps related to the nms-server.xml file on each NFM-P main server. | ||
4 |
Open the nms-server.xml file using a plain-text editor such as vi. | ||
5 |
Contact technical support before you attempt to modify the nms-server.xml file. Modifying the nms-server.xml file can have serious consequences that can include service disruption. Locate the following section: <samauxdb analyticsMODictPeriodicSyncTime="value" enabled="value" ipaddress="" oamTestResultEnabled="value" secure="value" sysKeysafe="value" /> | ||
6 |
Set the analyticsMODictPeriodicSyncTime parameter to 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, or 60, as shown below: <samauxdb analyticsMODictPeriodicSyncTime="15" enabled="value" ipaddress="" oamTestResultEnabled="value" secure="value" sysKeysafe="value" /> | ||
7 |
Save and close the nms-server.xml file. | ||
8 |
Open a console window. | ||
9 |
Navigate to the /opt/nsp/nfmp/server/nms/bin directory. | ||
10 |
If the main server is a standalone server, or the primary server is in a redundant deployment, enter the following: bash$ ./nmsserver.bash read_config ↵ The main server reads the nms-server.xml file and puts the configuration change into effect. | ||
11 |
Set the analyticsMODictPeriodicSyncTime for redundant NFM-Ps by restarting the standby main server to read the updated configuration in the nms-server.xml file: bash$ cd /opt/nsp/nfmp/server/nms/bin ↵ bash$ ./nmsserver.bash force_restart ↵ The standby main server reads the nsm-server.xml file and puts the configuration change in effect. | ||
12 |
Close the console window. | ||
13 |
List the existing dictionary tables with periodic monitoring support by entering: /opt/nsp/nfmp/server/nms/bin/nmsserver.bash analyticsPeriodicDef list ↵ The output lists analytics-mo-periodic-dictionary-table-name retention-days enabled/disabled status | ||
14 |
Update the periodic monitoring status for an existing dictionary table with periodic monitoring support by entering: /opt/nsp/nfmp/server/nms/bin/nmsserver.bash analyticsPeriodicDef update analytics-mo-periodic-dictionary-table-name --enabled true/false ↵ where: enabled is either true or false | ||
15 |
Update the retention days for an existing dictionary table with periodic monitoring support by entering: /opt/nsp/nfmp/server/nms/bin/nmsserver.bash analyticsPeriodicDef update analytics-mo-periodic-dictionary-table-name --retentionDays no-of-days ↵ where no-of-days is the value for retentionDays; the range is 1 to 30 Note: Alternatively, instead of configuring Step 14 and Step 15, update both the periodic monitoring status and retention days by entering a single command: /opt/nsp/nfmp/server/nms/bin/nmsserver.bash analyticsPeriodicDef update analytics-mo-periodic-dictionary-table-name --retentionDays no-of-days --enabled true/false ↵ Note: This step only needs to be run on the active main server. End of steps |
