Forwarding OVO for Windows Messages to OVO for
UNIX
OVO for Windows offers two methods for forwarding messages to OVO
for UNIX:
❏ Agent-based message forwarding
Agent-based, server-to-server message forwarding is the message
forwarding solution used in previous versions of OVO for Windows.
OVO for Windows version 7.5 introduces a new message forwarding
solution, server-based flexible management, which is now the
recommended message forwarding solution. Agent-based,
server-to-server message forwarding is only available to support
backward compatibility.
See “Configuring Agent-based Message Forwarding in OVO for
Windows” on page 249 for more information
❏ Server-based message forwarding
Server-based flexible management is the recommended message
forwarding solution for OVO for Windows 7.5. It uses the same
message forwarding and synchronizing techniques used in OVO for
UNIX. It allows forwarding messages directly from one management
server to other management servers, including OVO for UNIX
management servers.
See the OVO for Windows online help for more information about
server-based message forwarding:
