M OTIVATION :
This white paper was motivated because of the limited filtering functionalities of both of the integration methods (HPOM Agent or Web Services) included in the official NNMi OM Integration module as of version 9.11+P2 As in any major enterprise there are many networking devices and environments Production, PreProduction, Development and lots of other non-critical components that should also be controlled. NNMis auto-discovery functionality discovers all these environments, even if we meticulously exclude the elements that should not be discovered there are always unexpected surprises. In any case we should have the possibility to decide which elements are critical and for whom the forwarding should be enabled. The integration functionality that I was expecting was one that let us choose from which nodes or node groups we wanted to forward the generated incidents to OM and not just forward all the incidents generated from all the discovered NNMi nodes. So after several days of HP support emailing and phone feedback I finally decided I was going to create my own NNMi OM integration solution rather than waiting for this to be resolved. Note that there is currently a HP Enhancement request to resolve this issue:

In the zip file provided with this white paper, I have included all the necessary files needed to start using this integration solution. I have also added the HPOM policy that needs to be deployed on the NNMi server. The necessary PostgreSQL header files to build the shared library shell.so: pgsql-server-inc.tgz The source code of the custom PL/SQL shell function: shell.c The HPOM Open Message Interface policy for NNMi server: om_NNMi2OM_opcmsg-policy.dat An example of the execution script: nnmi2om_schedule.sh Installation SQL script: NNMi2OM_Install.sql Uninstallation SQL script: NNMi2OM_Deinstall.sql 5
