NNMi 10.x and HPOM Agent 12.0 Coexistence?

[FrankMortensen]

Hi

I am working in a project where we intend to upgrade a bunch of NNMi 9.1x servers on Linux to NNMi 10.x. On these same servers we also intend to install HPOM 12.0 agents, to catch messages from the NNMi servers based on opcmsg-commands executed as incident actions in NNMi. This is how they forward some of the incidents from NNMi to HPOM today.

BUT after having looked through the latest SUMA for HPOM agents today (dated 2015-10-19), I don't seem to find any information regarding supported co-existence (or integration) between the HPOM 12.0 agent ant NNMi 10. It only shows NNMi 9.22

Do you have any comments on this?

Cheers,

Frank

Hi Frank,

I hope you are doing very well.

I cannot find any reference for NNMi in the release notes document for HP Operations Agent 12:

https://softwaresupport.hp.com/group/softwaresupport/search-result/-/facetsearch/document/KM01869962

Also, I cannot find references for NNMi 10 in the user guide for HP Operations Agent 12:

https://softwaresupport.hp.com/group/softwaresupport/search-result/-/facetsearch/document/KM01869964

No luck with the Reference Guide for HP Operations Agent 12 too:

https://softwaresupport.hp.com/group/softwaresupport/search-result/-/facetsearch/document/KM01869959

The fact that NNMi 10 does not appear in the latest SUMA means that the integration/co-existence has not been tested yet and it is not officially supported.

You could install both products, but we cannot guarantee that issues will not show up.

Thanks for the reply, Alejandro, and thanks for checking those.

I seems that the different software groups/departments in HP live on separate planets sometimes.. Considering the fact that NNMi 10.x has been out for over a year, it is very surprising that a new HPOM agent version is released where they just pretend that NNMi 10.x does not exist 😞

Cheers,

Hi Frank ,

In fact HP OA are supported by platform/OS not by product.
so you won't fine any HP OA for NNMi.

1) On what platform/OS (uanme -a, /etc/system-release) runs NNMi 10 ?

if this is Linux (RHEL 6) OA 12.0x is supported.

2) with what product (OMW, OMU, OMi) do you want this agent to report to ?

 If the product is OMU 9.x read this document for integration by OA

KM00830095 NNMi 10.00 HP OM integration guide

If the product is OMi 10.01

KM00830093 NNMi 10.00 Integration Guide: HP BSM

KM01539243 OMi 10.01 Integrations Guide (page 122)
