Adding fields to the ObjectServer
Add the PtnEntityID and PtnNative1 columns to the alerts.status table using the
following steps. The column names are case-sensitive:
1. Check that the ObjectServer is running.
2. Execute the following command to start nco_sql. This command will change the
object server name as appropriate for your system. Enter the root password when
prompted.
$OMNIHOME/bin/nco_sql -username root -server NCOMS
3. Enter the commands below exactly as shown. The caret character is the nco_sql
prompt and must not be entered.
> alter table alerts.status add column PtnEntityID varchar(255);
> go
> alter table alerts.status add column PtnNative1 varchar(255);
> go
> alter table alerts.status add column NmosDomainName varchar(255);
> go
> exit
Connecting to an ObjectServer that is not named NCOMS
If you did not use the default name when you installed the Netcool/OMNIbus
ObjectServer, you need to follow the steps below before you can run visualization:
1. If you copied the tl1.rules and tl1.props files to the
$OMNIHOME/tsm/solaris2 directory, change to that directory.
If you plan to use the -rulesfile and -propsfile command line arguments to
use the files in the <netcool_install_dir>/etc/precisiontn directory,
change to that directory.
2. Open the tl1.props file with a text editor.
3. Find the following line (toward the bottom of the file):
#Server: "NCOMS"
4. Uncomment the line by removing the # character.
5. Replace NCOMS with the name of your ObjectServer.
6. Save and close the file.
As an alternative, you can give the name of your ObjectServer to Netcool/Precision TN
using a command line argument each time you start Netcool/Precision TN. To do this,
change directory to <netcool_install_dir>/precisiontn/bin and enter:
./precisiontn -server ObjectServername
where ObjectServername is replaced by the name of your ObjectServer.
