MetaConsole for Unicenter NSM: Getting Started for Canon Guide 1

Overview

A management console is a single tool used to manage entire networks. It is a framework

within which device- or service-specific management modules can share a user interface,

alarm monitoring, and other basic functions. Popular management consoles include

CA Unicenter, Tivoli NetView, Microsoft Management Console (MMC), and

HP OpenView.

MetaConsole technology provides a solution that works with multiple management

consoles and multiple network protocols on multiple platforms.

This guide describes the architecture of MetaConsole and the installation of MetaConsole

in a CA Unicenter environment.

MetaConsole Documentation

For any type of device you want to manage using MetaConsole, there are two relevant

documents in the suite of MetaConsole documentation:

• A getting started guide describing MetaConsole’s components and explaining the

requirements, installation steps, and other details specific to the management

environment

• A client user’s guide describing the MetaConsole client’s management of a

particular type of device

You are reading the getting started guide for MetaConsole in a Unicenter environment.

• Chapter 1, a high-level introduction to the MetaConsole architecture, is useful if

you desire a basic understanding of what’s happening “under the hood,” but you

can use MetaConsole without reading this chapter.

• Chapter 2 helps you plan your MetaConsole installation to meet your specific

needs.

• Chapter 3 provides instructions for installing and starting MetaConsole for

Unicenter.

• Chapter 4 provides introductory information about the MetaConsole client for

Unicenter and describes configuration options.

• Chapter 5 covers additional MetaConsole configuration that you perform through

text files.

• Chapter 6 provides information to help you solve problems with your

MetaConsole configuration.
