1-1 Overview
HP Operations Agent for NonStop (OVNM) is an out-of-the-box solution that provides seamless integration of HP
Operations Manager with HP NonStop servers.
Although HP OVNM is designed to integrate with HP Operations for Windows, UNIX, or Linux, it is not required
to have Operations Manager installed. The OVNM installation is performed using either Windows workstation or
a Windows Server.
A Window workstation is used when:
• OVNM Console is used as the Management Console.
• HP Operations Manager is installed on HP-UX, Sun Solaris, or Linux.
A Windows Server is used when HP Operations Manager is installed on a Windows Server.
In order to facilitate the integration, OVNM components are installed on the HP NonStop Server and the HP
Operations Management Server (if available).
This section lists and describes the OVNM installation in various environments.
The operating systems supported by OVNM and the corresponding package names are listed in the following
