HP Insight Management for Tivoli - Manual (Page 16)

Using the HP Insight Integration module for Netcool/OMNIbus 16
Event correlation
The rules and lookup files for Netcool/OMNIbus provides rules to correlate nearly 785 SNMP events.
These rules enable automated processing and correlation of HP ProLiant and Fibre Channel
Management SNMP events generated by HP Insight Management Agents. For a full list of HP event
rules, see “HP SNMP events” (on page 20) and “Non-HP SNMP events” (on page 179).
As an example of this functionality, the following figure displays an Event List with a Critical event. The
event data indicates the logical network adapter status has changed to failed.
When the failed logical network adapter connectivity is rebuilt, the automatic recovery process
associated with the Network Adapter hardware commences, and HP Insight Management Agents
generate additional events, indicating that the network connectivity is rebuilding.
When the rebuild is complete, a final event is generated, indicating that the Logical Network adapter
status is OK, and the HP rules close the preceding events related to the network connectivity failure.
The following figure shows the problem has changed to the Resolved state once the Logical Network
adapter status is changed to OK.
