Example of Processing Managed Node Files
Scenario OVO agent-processing character set on an HP-UX
managed node is EUC.
LANG=ja_JP.SJIS
opcmsg msg_text="This is a message with Shift
JIS characters"
Conversion Input conversion of the opcmsg is from Shift JIS to
EUC.
Output conversion, before forwarding the message to
the management server, is from EUC to Shift JIS (the
database character set).
Tips for Processing Managed Nodes Files
On HP-UX, you can define different character sets for different managed
nodes. Define the character set most frequently used on each managed
node. For example, if you use mostly monitor logfiles with Shift JIS
characters, you should use Shift JIS for your managed nodes. Similarly,
if your environment mostly generates input data for OVO in the EUC
character set, you should set the managed node character set to EUC.
When in doubt, use Shift JIS.
NOTE You can use a different character set for each managed node. You
determine the managed node character set by the character sets used in
your environment.
