Background Information

1.2

Preface

Background Information

ServerView runs on heterogeneous networks using the network management
protocol SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) and can be easily
linked with other management systems (e.g. HP OpenView NNM, IBM Tivoli
NetView, Microsoft SMS, Novell ManageWise) via standardized interfaces.
ServerView enables a trouble-free integration of Fujitsu Siemens PRIMERGY
servers in enterprise-wide network management systems such as Tivoli.
ServerView monitors important server components such as hard drives, fans
and power supplies. If the values specified for these parameters are exceeded
or an error occurs, appropriate messages are issued, and corrective measures
are initiated if required.
All Fujitsu Siemens PRIMERGY servers on a network can be monitored from
any standard PC running Windows 2000, Windows 2003 or Windows XP using
the server management software ServerView.
Server management offers operators of large networks decisive advantages:
– Increased productivity due to more reliable servers
– Reduced costs due to automatic monitoring of the data processing infrastructure
– Flexible system expansion, since ServerView can be easily adapted to
changing conditions
– Shorter downtimes due to simplified error analysis
– Shorter response times when errors occur
– Lower total operating costs (total cost of ownership) due to efficient utilization of network components and their resources
– Ease of use through software ergonomics: clear presentation of data, intelligent user interfaces and a help system for user support

Introduction

ServerView is a software package that monitors all important server functions
such as the hard disk, fans, power supply and temperature and reports the
measured values on a central monitoring console.
You can run ServerView Integration in NetView on Windows 2000, Windows
2003 and Windows XP. ServerView Integration lets you use the functionality of
ServerView and IBM Tivoli NetView at a central administration system.

2.1

Overview

The Fujitsu Siemens PRIMERGY servers are shown in the map of NetView.
Following installation of ServerView Integration in NetView you can administer
the PRIMERGY servers from the central management console:
– They appear as graphic symbols on the NetView map.
– Incoming traps are displayed in the Event Browser.
– Automatic reactions to traps can be configured and triggered.
– Values of MIB variables can be queried, saved, and analyzed periodically.
The integration of ServerView Integration in NetView offers the following
benefits:
– Management investments already made are unaffected.
– All devices on the network are presented in a centrally managed map.
– The overall status of a device, which can be determined in the context of
other managers, is shown.
– The same methods are used to display, monitor, and evaluate all managed
devices in order to support rapid and, if required, automatic response to
failures.
– Network components and their resources are used efficiently.
– Maximum performance and minimum failure times ensure an optimum
cost/benefit ratio.

Definitions of Terms

2.2

Introduction

Definitions of Terms

Global directory names of NetView
NetView is installed in the folder \usr\ov on the drive stored in the
environment variable NV_DRIVE.
The “ServerView Integration in NetView” product
The “ServerView Integration in NetView” product consists of an
integration package that you can add on to an existing NetView installation.
ServerView application
ServerView is a server management software for all devices with
ServerView agents. When integrated in NetView under Windows, it is
used to graphically display the MIB variables of the corresponding MIBs
and to configure the servers. You can install ServerView from the
PRIMERGY ServerView Suite Software CD.
Map application
The Map application is part of the integration package. It is automatically
started whenever the symbol for a PRIMERGY server is assigned to an
object of a map in NetView. Such assignments can occur automatically
via a call to the Poll application for all objects or can be made manually
by the user at the NetView console.
Poll application
The Poll application is part of the integration package. It supports
searching for devices with installed ServerView agents and is called by
the user via the MIsc – Extended Discovery – Discover Fujitsu Siemens
Server menu.
Object
In the context of NetView, an object is the representation of a physical
object in the NetView database. In this database, an object has a defined
set of properties. An object may be displayed in the NetView map by one
or more (possibly different) symbols.

Integration in Tivoli NetView

Introduction

Definitions of Terms

Symbol
In NetView a symbol represents just one object in the NetView database
in the NetView map. The status of a symbol can be determined from the
following three sources:
– from the status of the associated object,
– from the status of all subordinate symbols
(i.e. symbols in the submap of that symbol)
– from the symbol’s own status
(regardless of the object represented - this enables objects to be
represented by symbols with different statuses, depending on the
object context).
ServerView device
This manual uses the term ServerView device to refer to objects from the
NetView database for which the properties ServerViewObj and Node are
set and which are represented by at least one symbol of the type
Computer:FujitsuSiemens Primergy in the NetView map.
The physical devices corresponding to these objects should be
Fujitsu Siemens PRIMERGY servers with installed ServerView agents.
ServerView is the manager for these devices.
ServerView component object or ServerView component symbol
This manual uses the term ServerView component object to refer to the
component object of a ServerView device. A component object is used
to represent a specific hardware, software or logical component of a
device. The ServerView component objects are managed by the Map
application. They are used to represent the ServerView status of the
associated ServerView device from the viewpoint of ServerView. The
capabilities ServerViewObj and Software are set for these objects.
The ServerView component symbol is the graphic representation of the
ServerView component object in the NetView map. It reflects the current
status of the device from the viewpoint of ServerView and has the symbol
type Software:FujitsuServerView.

Installation

Before you start installing the “ServerView Integration in NetView” integration
package, please make sure that you read all the installation requirements in this
section.
If you want to install the integration package in a NetView client/server
environment, proceed as follows:
1. ServerView Integration in NetView must be first installed on the NetView
server.
2. If you need the functionality of the integration package on a NetView client,
you can then install the package on that client.

3.1

Hardware Requirements for All Systems

On your system, at least 2 MB of free disk space must be available in the global
directory structure of NetView.

3.2

Software Requirements for Windows NT

The software on the system must meet the following requirements:
– Windows 2000 (with Service Pack 1 or higher), Windows 2003 or Windows
XP must be installed as the operating system.
– NetView V7.1 or higher must be installed in single, client or server mode.
– In NetView, two free contiguous event numbers in the range 1001 to 1999
must be available in the "NetView" enterprise.

I Note that the installation of the ServerView V3.x software must occur

before the installation NetView V7.1 if both management programs are
to be run on the same system.

I The installation and every call to the ServerView application activates the
SNMP Trap Service on the system, which uses port 162. Since port 162
is also used by the NetView daemons, you should stop and disable the
SNMP Trap Service manually (via the Services in the Control Panel)
before starting the NetView daemon.

The integration package creates fields for internal use by the Map application
and capability fields in the NetView database. The capability fields are special
fields for classifying objects.
The currently set capabilities of an object can be viewed in the Object Properties
of that object.
The ServerViewObj capability is used to classify all devices that are managed via
the ServerView product.

Figure 15: Object Properties with the Capabilities tab

The field and capability definitions can be found in the file
\usr\ov\fields\c\ServerView\ServerView.fields.
The definitions of the default capabilities for the new symbols are located in the
file \usr\ov\symbols\c\ServerView\ServerView.symbols

Status Display of ServerView Devices

Status Display of ServerView Devices

All ServerView devices are identified in the NetView map by the graphical
symbol subclass FujitsuSiemens. The status of a device is shown in the map with
color codes. In the case of Fujitsu Siemens servers that are configured accordingly, this status is determined from the status of all its component symbols.
These component symbols can be found in the submap of the respective server.

Applications of ServerView Integration in
NetView

This section describes the applications available on installing the integration
package.

4.4.1

Poll Application

The Poll application searches the network for Fujitsu Siemens PRIMERGY
servers on which ServerView agents have been installed. The Poll application
sets the ServerViewObj capability for all the ServerView servers it finds.
The object IDs, which specify the path when searching the network for
ServerView devices, are defined in the configuration file \usr\ov\bin\ServerViewPoll.cfg.

4.4.2

Map Application

The Map application configures a network node that was identified by the Poll
application as a Fujitsu Siemens PRIMERGY server for the status display in the
NetView map.
The following properties are set by the Map application:
– The properties of the network nodes are set to that of a PRIMERGY server.
– Submaps are created on each network node.
– Icons with symbol properties of the ServerView software are created in the
submaps.

4.4.3

Reset Function

The Reset function can be used to undo the configuration of one or all
PRIMERGY servers (i.e., to reset the configuration by the Map application).

Configuration and Operation

This chapter describes how you can start up and manage the components
installed with the integration package.
In NetView you can automatically search your network for any network components in the “managed objects” (Discovery). With Discovery, NetView accesses
the SNMP agents and assigns corresponding default symbols to the various
device types.
The components found are entered in the submap of the relevant device (e.g.
IP interfaces or network cards).

5.1

Configuring Fujitsu Siemens Servers with
the Map Application

Fujitsu Siemens PRIMERGY servers must be configured for the following
reasons:
– The servers should be visibly distinguishable from other devices in the map.
– The status of the ServerView agents should be mapped to appropriate
component symbols in the map.

I Fujitsu Siemens servers can be configured only in a map with read/write
privileges. The Map application makes changes to the objects and
symbols in the NetView map.

Configuring with the Map Application

5.1.1

Configuration and Operation

Creating a ServerView Component Symbol for a
Fujitsu Siemens Server

The Map application creates a ServerView component symbol in the submap of
a Fujitsu Siemens server with the following capabilities:
– The symbol type is set to Software:FujitsuSiemensServerView
– The label of the symbol is set to ServerView
– The Status Source attribute of the symbol is set to Propagated, i.e., the status
of the ServerView component symbol is derived from the status of the
related object
– The status of the related object is initially set to Unknown
– The selection name of the server object and the suffix :ServerView form the
selection name of the ServerView component object
– The default capabilities of the ServerView component object are set in
accordance with the corresponding symbol definition file

Configuration and Operation

5.1.2

Configuring with the Map Application

Selection Name

The Map application automatically assigns the selection name of the
ServerView component symbol, which depends on the selection name of the
parent server.

I Neither the selection name of the server, nor the selection name of the
ServerView component symbol should be changed manually.

If, however, it is absolutely necessary for the selection name of a
Fujitsu Siemens server to be changed, proceed as follows:
Ê Select the menu item Misc – Extended Discovery – Reset selected Fujitsu
Siemens Server for the relevant Fujitsu Siemens server. This deletes the
ServerView component symbol from the submap of the server and sets the
symbol type to a default value other than FujitsuSiemens.
Ê Change the selection name of the server.
Ê Change the symbol type of at least one of the symbols for this server back
to FujitsuSiemens. This causes the Map application to regenerate the
ServerView component symbol (with a corresponding selection name).

5.1.3

Configuration and Operation

Changes to the Fujitsu Siemens Server

The Status Source attribute of the symbol is set to Propagated, i.e. the status of
the symbol for the server is derived from the status of all component symbols.
The default capabilities of the server are set in accordance with the corresponding symbol definition file.

Figure 20: Server symbol

Fujitsu Siemens servers and the associated ServerView component symbols
are configured by the Map application when the following events occur:
– when the symbol type of an existing device is changed to
Computer:FujitsuSiemens.
The configuration is then performed for the affected node.
– when a new device with the symbol type Computer:FujitsuSiemens is created.
The configuration is then performed for the affected node.

5.1.4

Configuring with the Map Application

Manually Configuring a Fujitsu Siemens Server

Select the symbol of the server in the map. You now have two methods by which
you can configure a single node as a Fujitsu Siemens server:
1. Using the Context menu, change the symbol type to FujitsuSiemens.
2. Create a new server with one of these two symbol types in the map by
selecting the menu item Object – New.
This creates a server as a Fujitsu Siemens server with the appropriate capabilities and a ServerView component symbol in the map (see the section “Configuring Fujitsu Siemens Servers with the Map Application” on page 33). The
configuration is performed even if there are several other existing symbols for
the object with different symbol types already present in the current map.

5.1.5

Resetting a Manual Configuration

If you want to reset this configuration, you must first make sure that there is no
further symbol with the symbol type FujitsuSiemens. Resetting a server is
achieved via the menu item Misc – Extended Discovery – Reset selected Fujitsu
Siemens Server. This changes the symbol and some of the capabilities of the
server accordingly. The ServerView component symbol in the related submap
is deleted unless there is at least one other symbol for this device with the
symbol type FujitsuSiemens.

I The component symbol is deleted only when the server is no longer
represented by any symbol with the symbol type FujitsuSiemens.

5.1.6

Automatic Search and Configuration of all
Fujitsu Siemens Servers

Under the Misc menu item of the NetView main menu, you can start the Poll
application with the option Extended Discovery – Discover Fujitsu Siemens Server.
NetView automatically assigns the symbol type of a node, which depends on
the value of the MIB variable sysObjectID. For each known value of the
sysObjectID MIB variable, an associated symbol type is defined in the
\usr\ov\conf\c\oid_to_sym file.

Integration in Tivoli NetView

37

Configuring with the Map Application

Configuration and Operation

The Poll application enables the symbol type to be assigned more precisely. It
can determine the symbol type of a device by checking whether a specific MIB
object is supported by that device.
All Poll application output is sent to the shell in which NetView was started. The
change in symbol type has the following effect in connection with the Map application: the Map application configures the related node as a Fujitsu Siemens
server by changing the symbol type to FujitsuSiemens.

I Note the effects of the SNMP parameter settings in NetView in this
context:

– If you have defined the wrong Community-String for a device, the request of
the Poll application will be rejected, and the device will not be detected
correctly.
– If you have selected a Timeout value that is too low, the requests may be
aborted before a response can be received. If the Timeout value is too high,
this will lead to delays when polling devices which do not have SNMP agents
or for which the SNMP agent is inactive.
– The reliability of the network connections is determined by the Retry-Count.
If you have selected too high a Retry-Count, this will lead to delays when
polling devices which do not have SNMP agents or for which the SNMP
agent is inactive.

I Set the IPMAP_NO_SYMBOL_CHANGES environment variable in the

runtime environment of NetView to TRUE. This prevents changes to the
symbol types from being reset by NetView as part of the Configuration
Monitoring, which runs continuously.

V Warning
Do not terminate NetView while the Poll application is running.

5.1.7

Configuration File of the Poll Application

In the $OV_BIN/ServerViewPoll.cfg file you will find the definitions of the tests
performed by this application. Each entry in this file has the following format (the
quotes and commas are part of the syntax and must always be specified):
SYSOID="sysObjectID_Value",OBJECT="MIB_ObjectID",
NEWSYMBOL="New_Symbol_Type"

38

Integration in Tivoli NetView

Configuration and Operation

Configuring with the Map Application

sysObjectID_Value
This parameter identifies a value for the MIB variable sysObjectID from
the MIB-II in dot notation, beginning with a period, for example:
“.1.3.6.1.4.1.231.1.3.1” - this is the value returned by all SINIX-N
systems as a sysObjectID. All nodes returning this value for sysObject are
to be tested for support of the MIB variables with object identifier
MIB_ObjectID.
In NetView you can use the “Configuration - System Information” menu
item to check if a specific node returns a value for sysObjectID and which
value is returned.
MIB_ObjectID
This parameter identifies a MIB variable that must be supported by each
individual node in order to receive the new symbol type. This variable is
specified with the object instance (always “.0” for scalar objects) without
the period prefix. For example, “1.3.6.1.4.1.231.2.10.2.1.3.0” identifies
the object sniInvCondition from the inventory MIB.
New_Symbol_Type
This parameter identifies the symbol type to be assigned to all symbols
(in the open map) of a node supporting the specified MIB variable. This
symbol type must be a type already known in NetView, and is specified
by entering the symbol class and symbol subclass, separated by a colon,
e.g. Computer:FujitsuSiemens. You can view the symbol types defined in
NetView by selecting the Object – New menu option. If this parameter is
not a symbol type known in NetView, the Poll application terminates
immediately.
Blank lines and comment lines (which must start with “#” in the first column) are
permitted in this configuration file.
The lines of the configuration file are compared against each node in the order
in which they are specified. If there are several lines with the same
sysObjectID_Value, only the first line specified is valid; other lines with the same
sysObjectID_Value are ignored. The node is always tested only for support of the
MIB variables from the first matching line. In this case, “matching” means that
the node returns the specified value for the MIB variable sysObjectID and there
is no symbol representing the node in the open map which has the symbol type
New_Symbol_Type.

Status Indication in Map

Configuration and Operation

5.2

Status Indication in the Map

5.2.1

The Status from the Viewpoint of NetView

NetView determines the status of a device in the map by sending ICMP echo
requests to the respective device. The status determined by this method only
indicates the accessibility state of the device. To present the ServerView status
described below, the Map application creates a ServerView component symbol
in the submap of the server.
NetView determines the status of a correctly configured Fujitsu Siemens server
from the status of all its component symbols (attribute Status Source of the
symbol equals Propagated), e.g., from the ServerView status and the status of
all interfaces.

I The ServerView status can be determined only if the server is accessible

via SNMP. If it is not, the status of the ServerView component symbol is
no longer updated. The server is then monitored by NetView's monitoring
of the other components.

V Warning
If the monitoring for the other components of a server by NetView is
disabled, it is possible that a failure of that server may not be reflected by
a status change of the corresponding symbol in the NetView map. This
could occur, for example, if the submap of the server contains only the
ServerView symbol and a symbol for the interface, and the user deletes
the interface symbol or sets this interface component object to
unmanaged.

5.2.2

The ServerView Status

For Fujitsu Siemens servers with installed ServerView subagents, you can
obtain more detailed information on the status of the device than just its availability status. For this reason, the sniInvCondition object from the INVENTORYMIB depicts the overall status of all ServerView agents on the relevant device.
The status returned is always the most critical state among all the ServerView
agents.
By monitoring these MIB variables, you can therefore determine the status of a
device from the viewpoint of ServerView.

40

Integration in Tivoli NetView

Configuration and Operation

5.2.3

Status Indication in Map

Automatic Monitoring of the ServerView Status

The following components automatically monitor this ServerView status:
– Data Collection for the MIB object sniInvCondition from the INVENTORY-MIB
– The Threshold and Rearm events for this Data Collection
– A reaction script for evaluating the values received, which sets the status of
the ServerView component symbol accordingly.

I All devices for which this status monitoring is enabled must be configured
as Fujitsu Siemens servers, i.e., represented by at least one symbol with
the symbol type FujitsuSiemens in the map. If you do not want any such
status monitoring to be performed, you can undo the configuration of the
nodes.

5.2.4

How Status Monitoring Works

The value of the MIB variable sniInvCondition is periodically polled for each
required Fujitsu Siemens server via the Data Collection.

I To keep the network load down to a minimum, you should adapt the

“generic” Data Collection created during the installation of the integration
package (with the source definition “*.*.*.*”) before using it.

The related threshold monitoring is defined so that both the Threshold and the
Rearm events are triggered at each successful poll.
As a reaction to the Threshold event, the \usr\ov\bin\setServerViewStatus.bat
reaction script is executed. This script receives the NetView-Object-ID of the
corresponding server and the current value of the MIB variable sniInvCondition
as its parameters. No automatic reaction is involved in the Rearm event. It
simply serves to reactivate the Threshold event.
The \usr\ov\bin\setServerViewStatus.bat script determines a corresponding
NetView status from the ServerView status and the selection name of the
related ServerView component symbol from the NetView-Object-ID of the
server involved. The determined status of this ServerView component symbol
is then set in the submap of the server using the OV_Set_Status_Color event.

Integration in Tivoli NetView

41

Status Indication in Map

Configuration and Operation

The Fujitsu Siemens servers are configured by the Map application and the Poll
application so that NetView can determine the status of a server from the status
of all of its component symbols. Consequently, such status changes are passed
up through the map hierarchy and can change the status of the relevant server,
segment, network, etc.
You can influence this procedure by performing various configuration steps:
– When configuring the Data Collection, select a suitable polling interval and
enter all the Fujitsu Siemens servers to be monitored in the Source list. Use
the menu option Tools – MIB – Collect, select snilnfCondition and the click on
Properties and Polling Properties one after the other.

I When doing this, do not change the Specific Event Number - it is

automatically assigned during the installation of the integration package,
based on the previously defined Threshold events.

– The events SVPollThresh and SVPollRearm are assigned to the event category
Don´t log or display. Consequently, they do not appear in the event browser
and are not recorded in the log file. If you want to change this behavior, you
can assign a different event category to these events.
– A NetView status is determined in the reaction script from the value of the
MIB variable sniInvCondition.
If necessary, you can modify this script and adapt the assignments to meet
your needs.
– The OV_Set_Status_Color event is generated by the reaction script at each
successful poll. To prevent this event from being recorded in the event
browser and/or the log file, you can change the event category for this event
accordingly (Don´t log or display or Log only).

5.2.5

Resetting the ServerView Status Manually

To reset the status of a Fujitsu Siemens server in the NetView map, proceed as
follows:
Ê From the context menu of the node in the map, select the item Unmanage
Object to place the node in the unconfigured state.
Ê Select the item Manage Object from the context menu of the node in the map
to place the node with the set configuration in the initial state.

45

Operation of Status Display

Configuration and Operation

Figure 24: Submap of a server with component symbols

Component symbols can be created and managed by NetView itself or by any
other applications such as the Map application, for example.
The overall status of all ServerView agents on a server is determined by a Data
Collection with Threshold monitoring and an associated reaction script and
mapped to the ServerView component symbol in the submap of that server. This
component symbol thus corresponds to the status icon in the server list of
ServerView.
If the status of the ServerView component symbol changes to Major, for example,
the status of the parent server symbol is updated in accordance with the propagation rules and the original status. This mechanism enables a status to be
forwarded up to the highest level in the map hierarchy.
Such status changes inform the network administrator about problems that have
occurred. The administrator can then track these status changes down from a
higher-level map until he or she finally reaches the map that shows the
relevant server. A quick look at the submap of the server immediately indicates
which component of the system is in an alarm state and which manager can be
used to track this state further.
