Integrate NNMi to BVD dashboard

[ramesh9]

Dear All

Had anyone integrated NNM and BVD especially to create dashboard for events from NNMi.

I understand this can be implemented using OpsConnector policy, but I am not able to figure how to create this integration. If anyone has done it please can you share me the steps please.

Hello,

The only out-of-the-box integration between NNMi and BVD would be to forward events from the BSMC on NNMi to BVD via a BVD Forwarding policy,  Otherwise, you would need to create your own integration.  BVD is quite open and just needs to get data in JSON format via HTTP(S) POST.  The BSMC can help with that part.  Eg, create a policy to get that data from sources such as structured log file, database, perl script, REST web service etc and the BVD Forwarding policy will convert it to JSON and POST it to BVD.

Also on the official documentation from NNMi you can find some relevant information:

Thanks for your information, it was useful.

Can you give me an example of how to create BVD Forwarding policy to forward events from NNMi to BVD.
