Installing and Deploying Event Monitors
Overview
NSM for eDirectory now has two available Event Monitors one for NetWare and other for OES 2
Linux. The NetWare based Event Monitor is a NetWare Loadable Module (NLM), and uses NDAP
over NCP to monitor eDirectory for events. The OES 2 SP1 Linux based Event Monitor runs as
daemon, and uses LDAP to monitor eDirectory. Both Event Monitors use HTTP(S) to
communicate with the Engine.
Requirements
NetWare 6.5 SP7 or later
Deploying Event Monitors for NetWare
1. Launch NSMAdmin executable. Click on Start->All Programs->Novell-Storage Manager->NSMAdmin
2. Login to the NSM Management Interface:
a. Server IP and Port#: <Your Servers IP Address or DNS Name>:8009 b. User ID: Admin.OU.Org Note that the full distinguished dotted name is required. c. Password: xxxxxxx
3. Select the “Config” tab. 4. Select “Event Servers” from the Component Config section.
5. If this is a new install, click the "Add" and select a server that meets the requirements for Event Monitoring.
6. If this is an upgrade, and the server meets the requirements, highlight the server to be
upgraded and click the "Upgrade" button.
7. If this is an upgrade, and the server does not meet the requirements, highlight the server
to be removed and click the "Remove" button.
This completes the steps for configuring a minimum of at least one event server for monitoring events in the Directory. Note: Two Event Monitors are needed per replica ring for best results.
A Results dialog confirming the results of the Event Monitor deployment is displayed.
Installing the Event Monitor for OES2 Linux
Overview
Installing the NSM Event Monitor for Linux requires OES2-SP1 or SLES 10 SP2.
Note: NSM Event Monitors for Linux will not show up in NSMAdmin the same way as NetWare
Servers. The NSM Event Monitor for Linux must be installed first on the Server. Once installed,
the NSM Event Monitor will begin to send heartbeat messages to the NSM Engine which will
allow the Event Monitor to be registered via NSMAdmin. Registration is required to allow the
Engine to trust the Event Monitor.
Copy the novell-storagemanager-event-2.5.0-xx-installer.bin file from the NSM Engine
component directory to the desired Linux server.
Installing the NSM Event Monitor for OES2 Linux
The NSM Event Monitor for Linux must be installed from via terminal as root.
Accept the EULA.
When the installation completes the nsmevent-config utility will need to be run to configure the
NSM Event Monitor for OES2 Linux. The utility can be run from the console by typing the
following:
After the installation is complete the installer is prompted to configure the NSM Event Monitor
for Linux using the nsmevent-config utility. The nsmevent-config checks to see if a
nsmagentd.conf file exists, and if not will create one. If the configuration (conf) file is created by
the utility the utility will start in wizard mode to get the NSM Event Monitor for Linux
configured, and accepting events.
Configuring the NSM Event Monitor for OES2 Linux
The wizard mode of the utility will need to know the IP Address of the Engine Server, the port to
communicate with the NSM Engine (8009 by default), the IP Address of the LDAP Server to be
monitored, the port to communicate with the LDAP Server, and credentials to login for
eDirectory (FDN of the NSMPROXY object). This information is saved into the nsmeventd.conf
file.
/etc/opt/novell/storagemanager/event/nsmeventd.conf
nsmevent-config
sh novell-storagemanager-event-2.5.0-xx-installer.bin
Once the NSM Event Monitor is configured the utility will act as console to allow control, and
management of the NSM Event Monitor for Linux.
The NSM Event Monitor for Linux logs are created in:
The NSM Event Monitor for Linux binaries are located in:
The NSM Event Monitor has also has setup the standard rc script to allow the administrator
quick access to start, stop, restart, and check the status of the NSM Event Monitor for Linux.
rcnsmeventd (start|stop|restart|status)
/opt/novell/storagemanager/event/bin
/var/opt/novell/storagemanager/event/log
Registering the NSM Event Monitor for OES2 Linux via NSMAdmin
1. Launch NSMAdmin, and select the “Config” tab. 2. Select Event Servers from the Component Config section.
3. Click the “Add” button
4. Select the OES2 Linux Server from the list of heart beating OES2 Linux Event Servers.
5. Click the “Add” button. The NSM Event is now registered.
Best Practices for NSM Event Monitors
Things to be aware of when designing the NSM Event Monitor placement:
Two (2) Event Monitors are needed per replica ring.
The NetWare and OES2 Linux based Event Monitors can both be used to monitor the
same replica, but not the same server.
Installing and Deploying NSM Agents (formerly Sentinels)
Deploying the NSM Agent for Netware
1. Launch NSMAdmin executable. Click on Start->All Programs->Novell-Storage Manager->NSMAdmin
2. Login to the NSM Management Interface:
a. Server IP and Port#: <Your Servers IP Address or DNS Name>:8009 b. User ID: Admin.OU.Org Note that the full distinguished dotted name is required.
c. Password: xxxxxxx
3. Select the “Config” tab. 4. Select “Agent Servers” from the Component Config section.
5. If this is a new install, click the "Add" and select a server that meets the requirements for
Agent Servers.
6. If this is an upgrade, and the server meets the requirements, highlight the server to be
upgraded and click the "Upgrade" button.
7. If this is an upgrade, and the server does not meet the requirements, highlight the server
to be removed and click the "Remove" button.
A Results dialog confirming the results of the Event Monitor deployment is displayed.
Installing the Agent for OES2 Linux
Requirements
The Linux Agent requires an OES2sp1 machine with NSS installed. The NSS software must be installed, even if using native Ext3 or Reiser file systems. The OES2SP1 installation CD maybe required if any dependencies are missing. Note: A 32-bit binary is provided. Installing this program on OES2sp1 64-bit is experimental and is unsupported at this time. The NSM Event Monitor for Linux must be installed from via terminal as root.
Accept the EULA, and allow the installation process to complete. Yast maybe called to install any
missing dependencies.
Configuring the NSM Agent for OES2 Linux
When the installation completes the nsmagent-config utility will need to be run to configure the
NSM Agent for OES2 Linux. The utility can be run from the console by typing the following:
After the installation is complete the installer is prompted to configure the NSM Agent for OES2
Linux using the nsmagent-config utility. The nsmevent-config checks to see if a
nsmagentd.conf file exists, or if not it will create one. If the configuration (conf) file is created
by the utility the utility will start in wizard mode to get the NSM Agent for OES2 Linux
configured, and accepting work from the NSM Engine.
nsmagent-config
sh novell-storagemanager-agent-2.5.0-xx-installer.bin
Registering the NSM Agent for OES2 Linux via NSMAdmin
1. Launch NSMAdmin, and select the “Config” tab.
2. Select Agent Servers from the Component Config section.
3. Click the “Add” button
4. Select the OES2 Linux Server from the list of heart beating OES2 Linux Agent Servers.
5. Click the “Add” button. The NSM Agent is now registered.
