User`s guide

You can also make any number of custom report definitions using Manage Report Definitions on the Reporting tab. Using
UDAY and UWEEK is not necessary. You can use any variables in the specified table and any other features available in the
specified type of report definition.
Note: If you make custom report definitions, remember to add them to the appropriate batch/background job file.For details, see
Section 2, Task 3: Customize Your Report Definitions
.
Decide if you want to use any of the other HN2 tables and, if so, which other variables you
want to use from those tables.
Note that these other tables duplicate the HN2NIX table metrics, so you probably do not want both. You may want to use the
small tables instead of the HN2NIX table if you want to collect data at different intervals for different tables.
Consider collecting SNMP data using the other MIBs for which IT Service Vision supplies
tables.
IT Service Vision provides supplied tables for data from other SNMP MIBs such as the Cisco MIB (which corresponds to the
tables whose names start HHC), the RMON (RFC1271) MIB (which corresponds to the tables whose names start HRM), and the
Wellfleet and Wellfleet Series 7 MIBs (which correspond to the tables whose names start HWE). To see a list of pre-defined
tables for HPOV/NVAIX, follow this path from the main window:
Explore Tables/Variables CPE -> Collector: Selected -> HP-OV -> OK
With one exception, you collect, process, reduce, and report on data from these MIBs in the same way that you handle data from
MIB-II. The exception is that MIB-II was loaded into HPOV/NVAIX when HPOV/NVAIX was installed. You will need to load
the other MIB or MIBs into HPOV/NVAIX. For load instructions, see HP OpenView Network Node Manager Administrator’s
Reference or NetView for AIX Administrator’s Guide.
Note: For the naming conventions for tables see Open Systems and Windows NT Appendix 1: Tables and Variables Naming
Convention.
Consider collecting SNMP data using MIBs for which IT Service Vision does not supply
tables.
