The ringBell utility takes two arguements. The value of the auguments are insignificant as long as the format is
correct.

ringBell <selectionName> <message in quotes>

The ringBell utility performs two actions. It sounds the bursts of beeps and it sends an SNMP event to this
management station using the OpenView enterprise specific trap OV_Bell_Message. If the logging of the
OV_Bell_Message is undesirable, the Event Configuration feature may be used to set the category for this trap to
"don't log or display".

13.9 BACKGROUND GEOGRAPHICAL MAPS

HP OpenView Network Node Manager provides the capability to assign a CompuServe Graphic Interchange Format

(GIF

) file or an X11 monochrome bitmap format (XBM) file as the background for network maps. OpenView Network

Node Manager ships with the set of standard image files shown below. These images are the only maps that Ericsson
provides. The installer is responsible for selecting the appropriate maps at installation time or purchasing any additional maps
(in the form of GIF or XBM files) desired.

all 50 U.S. states

major Canadian provinces

western hemisphere

continents

countries in Europe, Asia, and the Pacific

The images that are provided are simple outlines located in usr/OV/backgrounds.

When a background graphic is added, the graphic appears in the submap window. Symbols in the submap appear over

the background graphic file. Users and applications can specify a background graphic for each submap.

13.10 MAP SNAPSHOTS

Creating a map snapshot preserves the state of the network at the moment the snapshot was created. Snapshots can be

created, listed, opened, closed, deleted, and described. Snapshots can not replace the current map. Snapshots are intended for
historical purposes, not restorative purposes. See the OpenView NNM User’s Guide section titled Taking Snapshots of the
Map
.

NOTE

Snapshots may consume noticeable amounts of memory.
