Alarm management 587<br />

Installing Alarm Notification control file<br />

Make sure you have the control files correctly installed. Control files define which<br />

systems are monitored and which events are processed. For detailed instructions about<br />

defining Run Options, consult the online Help.<br />

Setting up a devices file<br />

The devices file contains the list of monitored systems. SNMP traps that a device sends<br />

must be defined in the configuration control file. You can add reference information to<br />

monitored systems specifying the following:<br />

The IP address of the system or its system name<br />

An alias for any system name or IP address<br />

Within the Alarm Notification application, you can reference systems by the specified<br />

alias.<br />

See "Control files included with alarm notification",” for more information about the<br />

contents of the devices file.<br />

file is overwritten when OTM is reinstalled or upgraded and any<br />

changes will be lost.<br />
