4-1 Prerequisites
The prerequisites for using OCC are as follows:
OVNM Backend Components Should be Running
In order to get the information from the backend and saving the information specified using the front-end, the
OVNM backend components should be up. Use the following command to verify the status of the backend
components. Switch over to the volume.subvolume, where OCC is installed before issuing the command.
$ABC.OCCSUB>RUN STATOVNM
Elink Should be Up and Running
Elink is the communication channel between the HP NonStop host and the front-end. Elink must be running for
using the various features of OCC.
The status of Elink can be verified using the NonStop Nodes Status window, which can be accessed by selecting
the Start\Programs\HP OVNM\NonStop Server Tools\NonStop Nodes Status menu option.
Figure 4-1 OCC NonStop Nodes Status Window
A Green icon next to the node name in the window indicates that the connection is established with the remote
HP NonStop Elink. In case the remote HP NonStop Elink is not up, the icon will be seen in red. The Red icon also
indicates that the backend applications are not running.
The Elink status can also be monitored using the OCC Message/Log pane.
