All imported policies are stored in subdirectories of the policy
directory Policy Management\Policy Groups\Imports From
File .
Policy File (/f)
The policy file contains one or more templates that will be
imported as policies into HPOM for Windows. This file is created by
the config download command (opccfgdwn) on an OVO for
UNIX server. For every template contained in the file a new policy
will be added.
NOTE:
Refer to the OVO for UNIX Administrator's Reference for
information about downloading template files.
The table below shows the OVO for UNIX message source types and
shows the policy type to which they are converted:
Message Source Type
Policy Type
Logfiles
Logfile Entry or Windows Event Log
SNMP Trap
SNMP Interceptor
Message Interface
Open Message Interface
Threshold Monitor
Measurement Threshold
Scheduled Action
Scheduled Task
Other OVO for UNIX message source types cannot be
imported.
Policy Group (/g)
If this optional parameter is given, the policies of the file
are stored in the policy group "...\Imports From File\<policy
group>". If the given group doesn't exist it will be
created.
If the /g option is omitted a new policy group named with
the current date and time will be created and used.
Replace (/r) Flag
Use this option if you want to replace any existing policies
within <policy group> that have the same name as any template
that you are importing.
CAUTION:
The old policy is replaced and cannot be recovered.
If neither the /r nor /d flag is used, policies that have the same
name as an existing policy contained in <policy group> will
not be imported.
Duplicate (/d) Flag
Use this option if you want to import policies that have the
same name as existing polices in the same <policy group>
without overwriting them. The policies will have different
GUIDs.
If neither the /r nor /d flags is used, policies to
be imported that have the same name as a policy contained in
<policy group> will not be imported.
Codeset (/c)
This parameter must be set if the policy file contains
non-ASCII characters (for example, a download file from an English
OVO for UNIX server is encoded in iso8859-1, a download file from a
Japanese OVO for UNIX server is encoded in Shift-JIS). In this case
the policies will be converted to the multi-byte Unicode encoding
UTF8. (This is necessary because within HPOM for Windows all
polices are stored in a Unicode encoding.)
If omitted, it is assumed that the given file (<policy file>)
only contains ASCII data.
It can accept the following values: ASCII, UTF8, ISO81 (for
ISO88591), ISO82 (for ISO88591), ISO85 (for ISO88595), ISO815 (for
ISO885915), ROMAN8, SJIS, EUCJP, GB2312, BIG5, EUCTW, EUCKR, and
UNICODE (for Windows Unicode).
Convert OVO for UNIX Operations templates to HPOM for Windows
policies.
Download the templates from the OVO for UNIX management server
using the command opccfgdwn (see OVO for UNIX
documentation) to a config download package.
Copy the download package to the HPOM for Windows management
server.
If any template names contain any special characters, open the
config download package and remove them. Special characters are not
allowed in policy file names.
Upload the templates to the HPOM for Windows management server,
where they become policies. Use the command ImportPolicies,
as described above.
