To Configure OVO for UNIX to Accept Messages Forwarded
from an OVO for Windows Management Server
1. Prepare the OVO for UNIX management server.
To prepare the management server:
a. In the OVO for UNIX administrator GUI, add the Windows node
on which the OVO for Windows server is running as an
OVO-controlled node. For instructions, see the OVO
Administrator’s Guide to Online Information.
b. Update the OVO for UNIX configuration and start heartbeat
polling for the OVO for Windows node manually.
Use the following commands:
/opt/OV/bin/OpC/opcsw -installed
Sample output: f887b88
/opt/OV/bin/OpC/opchbp -start
The opcsw command returns the hexadecimal value of the node’s
IP address. Write this value down. You will need it to set up the
flexible-management configuration template.
For more information about opcsw, see the man page opcsw(1M).
2. Create the message forwarding file.
a. Create a file and name it with the hexadecimal value returned by
the command opcsw.
b. Copy the template below and paste it into the file.
File:

#TIMETEMPLATES
