About Character Code Conversion in HPOM
Converting Managed Node Files with ROMAN8 and ROMAN9
In an English-language environment, HPOM does not perform a runtime
conversion on the management server. HPOM performs a runtime
conversion only for managed node configuration files if the HPOM agents
on HP-UX or MPE/iX are running with the ROMAN8 and ROMAN9
(only on MPE/iX) character set.
Processing Managed Node Files
In an English-language environment, HPOM processes managed node
files as follows:
❏
❏
❏
❏
❏
❏
SNMP Events
Interprets incoming SNMP events in ASCII format.
User Commands
Converts user commands from the external character set to the node
character set.
Configuration Files
Does not convert input for configuration files. HPOM always
processes configuration files in the node processing character set.
Local Logfiles
Does not convert output for local HPOM logfiles. HPOM always
processes the contents of logfiles in the node processing character
set.
MIB Processing
Processes MIB files in the HPOM node processing character set.
Action Agents
Before actions are started, action agents receive their input in the
management server character set, and convert it into the node
processing character set.
