4. Actions commands can be configured in one of two ways using the Automatic command or Operator-
initiated command buttons in the Actions tab page. So the user can configure to either initiate commands
automatically when an event is received, or by an Operator as per the requirement. The figure below is the
configuration dialog box for Operated-Initiated Commands.
Figure 4-11 HP Operations Manager: Operator-Initiated Command Dialog Box
Whether action commands for HP NonStop Servers are executed as Automatic or Operator- initiated, the
commands are required to use the “nscmd” utility. The “nscmd” utility is supplied with OVNM and executes
on the HP Operations Manager Management Server. It then send the command defined in the –cmd option
to the NonStop Server identified with the –node option.
Since the “nscmd” command executes on the Management Server the Node field in the command dialog
box MUST be set to <$OPC_MGMTSV>.
