After searching the archives I did not found any really usefull
stuff about this.
I would like to know if anyone has done some degree of integration
of the NetWorker notification/reporting into Openview already.
It has been recently discussed that the SNMP module is not worth his
price which I agree with.
What I am looking for is at least the possibility to feed
notifications like succesfull/failed backup jobs into Openview and
probably also how much data has been backed up in jobs.
If anyone has done this already or has any suggestions on how to do
it without the SNMP module, please share it with me.
thank you and regards -attila
You can basically achieve any level of integration as you are willing
to ... NetWorker's support for custom notifications with custom
actions means you can get any notification data into any application
you want, with some massaging.
In the past I've done scripting to integrate NetWorker notifications
with BMC Patrol, and I've had customers do similar scripting for
OpenView.
If you know a good scripting language, such as Perl, or are prepared
to learn, it won't take you long to get to where you need to be.
Cheers,
Preston.
