Chapter 1. Introducing OSM Prev Next Chapter 1. Introducing OSM OSM Interfaces OSM Service Connection OSM Notification Director OSM Guided Procedures OSM Low-Level Link OSM Event Viewer What Changed From TSM to OSM New Look-and-Feel Functional Differences Between OSM and TSM The OSM client components are installed on a PC workstation that serves as the system console. The OSM server components are installed on the NonStop server running the HP NonStop operating system.
OSM Interfaces OSM Service Connection The OSM Service Connection is the primary OSM management component. You use the OSM Service Connection to log on and establish a connection with a NonStop server. From the Management window, you can manage the resources of your server. If your server is part of a ServerNet cluster, you can also manage cluster resources.
OSM Guided Procedures Guided procedures are launched by OSM actions: OSM Guided Procedure Replace PMF, IOMF, SNDA, SEB, MSEB OSM Action For Object Replace Each CRU HP NonStop Cluster Switch (model 6770) and subcomponents (UPS and AC transfer switch) HP NonStop ServerNet Switch (model 6780) and subcomponents (logic board and PIC) Replace Switch II Component Replace Replace 6780 Switch Replace Replace ServerNet Switch Board or IOAM Enclosure For the IOAM Enclosure, the action is Replace IOAM Enclosu
To start the OSM Low-Level Link, select Start>Programs>HP OSM>OSM Low-Level Link. OSM Event Viewer The OSM Event Viewer allows you to retrieve, view, and save EMS events from event logs. It also gives you access event details such as cause, effect, and recovery information. The OSM Event Viewer is a browser-based application, closer in appearance and function to WebViewPoint than to the TSM EMS Event Viewer. To start the OSM Event Viewer, select Start>Programs>HP OSM>OSM Event Viewer.
● Tree pane tabs have been replaced by a view of both the system and the cluster in the tree pane. ● A view pane drop-down list lets you select either a Physical or Inventory view. ● The system-level physical view no longer allows you to change icon sizes. Group icons used in the system-level physical view are smaller than those used by default in TSM, so you can view more groups without scrolling. ● OSM displays object names in the format [Object type] [Object name] ([group.module.slot.port]).
Using the Display menu to switch between the These menu options are replaced by a View drop-down list, located directly in the Physical view, view pane. A Save button on the Inventory view allows you to save the contents of Connection (not currently available) the Inventory view as a Microsoft Excel file.
You can save a snapshot from the OSM Service Connection without having to change a configuration file setting as in TSM. Snapshots You can load and view a saved snapshot on any server running OSM server software. To load a snapshot, launch Internet Explorer and enter the URL of the system you are using to view the snapshot, followed by /snapshot/index.html. For example: http://star2.caclab.cpqcorp.net:9990/snapshot/index.html.

Chapter 3. Configuring OSM Prev Next Chapter 3. Configuring OSM Configuring the Server Defining Users Configuring Service Provider Access Dial-out/Dial-in Unattended Site Before using OSM applications to manage your system: ● Configure the server using the OSM Low-Level Link. ● Configure service provider access using the OSM Notification Director. ● Configure the OSM Notification Director during OSM installation to run as a Windows Service, which allows it to run without requiring a Windows logon.
Defining Users To use the OSM client and server software, you must define the users that have access to your server. OSM allows two types of users: MSP (Low-Level-Link) Users ● Can log on to the OSM Low-Level Link and connect to the MSP, allowing them to access a server even when the NonStop operating system is not running. ● Have full privileges and can perform serious actions such as loading the processor or starting the system. Any MSP user can perform any action available in the OSM Low-Level Link.
Configuring Service Provider Access Use the OSM Notification Director to configure these service provider access components: If you want your system console to receive incident reports from your Incident reports server, use the Preferences tab in the System Configuration dialog box to designate the system console as either a primary or backup dial-out point.

● Migrating to the Layered Topology describes how to migrate a cluster from one of the star topologies to the layered topology. ● Adding Zones or Layers to a Layered Topology describes how to add zones or layers to a cluster already using the layered topology.
These three methods are supported for updating to the split-star or tri-star topology: ● Merging two star topologies to create a split-star topology ● Merging a star topology with a split-star topology to create a tri-star topology ● Merging three star topologies to create a tri-star topology The major steps in updating a topology are: 1. Review the planning information in the ServerNet Cluster Manual for your type of update.
to support node numbers 17 through 24. (The remaining star topology should already use node numbers 1 through 8.) Note: Changing the configuration tag requires a hard reset of the switches, resulting in a temporary disruption of ServerNet connectivity. After the configuration tags match on respective X and Y switches, the connectivity is repaired. 8. Perform the Update Topology action on each cluster. When prompted, click the Disable Cluster Alarms button.
Software Requirements for Split-Star and Tri-Star Topologies Any node that will participate in a ServerNet cluster must have Expand (T9057) software, which is delivered on the site update tape (SUT). In addition, the Expand/ServerNet Profile (T0569) is required for clustering. If you order the optional Expand/ServerNet Profile component, it is delivered on the SUT. Additional software requirements depend on the topology you use to construct the ServerNet cluster: Software Component Split-Star Topology G06.
