IBM Netcool/OMNIbus Probe for Nortel CNM Manuel D’Utilisation

The FTP command is run in the user’s home directory. For FTP users other than root, you 
must change the default path specified by the NortelSecurityIrpFile property to 
enable the probe to locate the security IRP file; for example, if the FTP user is norteluser, 
the home directory for this user will be /home/norteluser. In this case, you must change 
the default path specified by the NortelSecurityIrpFile property to:

../../opt/nortel/config/3GPP/NortelSecurityIrpAgent.ior

The probe checks the status of the IRP agent every 60 seconds. You can change this 
frequency if required using the Agentheartbeat property. 

If the Resynch property is set to true, the probe initially receives a list of all active alarms 
from the AlarmIRP server. The probe then connects to the NotificationIRP server and uses 
the CORBA notification push model to receive new alarms from the server as they are 
generated. If the Resynch property is set to false, the probe only receives new alarms.

The probe initially receives a list of all active alarms from the AlarmIRP server. The probe 
then connects to the NotificationIRP server and uses the CORBA notification push model 
to receive new alarms from the server as they are generated.

You can run multiple instances of the Probe for Nortel CNM. For each instance running, 
you must specify a different port to which the server listens using the ORBLocalport 
property.

To stop an instance of the probe, you must issue a stop signal to the process associated with 
that probe instance.

The Probe for Nortel CNM has a timeout facility that allows it to disconnect from the system 
if there is no activity for a predefined amount of time. You can specify how long the probe 
waits before disconnecting using the Timeout property.
