Setting the Time Zone Parameter
Configuring OVO
Configuring Flexible Management Templates
You can force the OVO management server to use the message creation
time on the local managed node, rather than the message arrival time on
the management server.
To specify the time zone parameter for service hours or scheduled
outages, set one of the following strings using the ovconfchg
command-line tool:
❏ Service Hours
OPC_SERVHRS_USE_AGENT_TZ TRUE
❏ Scheduled Outages
OPC_OUTAGE_USE_CREATE_TIME TRUE
These strings force the OVO management server to apply the time frame
for service hours and scheduled outages defined on the OVO
management server (for example, 08:00 -- 16:00) as a sliding time frame
for managed nodes in their respective local time zone.
NOTE Make sure the local time is correctly set on the managed node.
About the Command-line Interface
The message manager does not automatically read the configuration
template for outages and service hours each time the template file is
modified (for example, by the system administrator or an external
application).
You can use the command-line tool opccfgout(1M) to start the
reconfigure request:
opccfgout -update
Additional options allow you to set status variables for the conditions:
opccfgout -set_cond [-true|-false|-default]
To list the current status of the status variables, enter:
opccfgout -list_cond |-all
