Chapter 1: Introduction
This chapter discusses the following topics:

Topic Overview How is the Data Collected? How is the Data Processed and Loaded into the Database? How is the Data Reported? Page 1 1 2 3
Overview
Netcool/Proviso Technology Packs are individually installed modules that contain discovery, grouping, collection, and reporting instructions created by Technology Pack developers or Professional Services personnel for a specific network technology or network equipment provider, such as Redback SmartEdge 800 Service Gateway. Once installed, a Technology Pack programs Netcool/Proviso to inventory and group specific network resources, perform mathematical calculations on raw or aggregated data streams collected from these resources, and produce key performance monitoring metrics that are stored on the Netcool/Proviso database. Reporter sets designed for each Technology Pack query the database for this information and display the results on a web portal in the form of specialized report tables, graphs, and charts. This chapter provides an overview of how Technology Packs work with Netcool/Proviso to collect, process, load, and report data from a network environment.
How is the Data Collected?

Inventory
After a Netcool/Proviso Technology Pack has been installed, an inventory process must be run so that the Technology Packs target network resources can be identified and modeled within Netcool/Proviso as subelements. Sub-elements must be created before data from any network resource can be collected, processed, and stored in the database. How sub-elements are discovered depends on whether the target resources are SNMP resources or non-SNMP resources: For SNMP network resources, a Technology Pack provides a discovery formula. Discovery formulas are used to evaluate network resources, determine which resources become sub-elements, and set values for items defined as properties in the formula. Once all the sub-elements have been discovered and created in the
database, the inventory process organizes the sub-elements according to the grouping rules provided by a Technology Pack. The grouping rules use the properties and values defined within inventory formulas or adaptor design files to filter the sub-elements into their appropriate collection or reporting groups. For non-SNMP network resources, a Technology Pack provides a Bulk Adaptor Design File. Bulk Adaptor Design Files define how data fields that reside in files generated by network resources are used to create subelements and set values for items defined as properties.
During the database synchronization phase of the inventory process, the list of discovered sub-elements is compared to what exists in the database. Newly discovered sub-elements are assigned a resource identifier (RID) and timestamp, and the database uses both items to create a new entry for the sub-element to reflect the known state of the network inventory.
Collection
Following the completion of the inventory process, Netcool/Proviso is ready to collect performance data for a Technology Packs target network resources. A Technology Pack provides Netcool/Proviso with collection formulas that instruct a DataLoad collector residing in a DataChannel to collect specific types of performance data against a particular sub-element. The types of collection formulas applied to the data depend on whether the sub-element is an SNMP resource or non-SNMP resource: For SNMP network resources, a Technology Pack provides SNMP collection formulas. SNMP collection formulas instruct the SNMP Collector to take the data gathered during a specified collection interval, perform some mathematical operation on the data, and output the result as a performance metric. For non-SNMP network resources, a Technology Pack provides Bulk collection formulas. A Bulk collection formula, unlike an SNMP collection formula, has no executable instructions. A Bulk collection formula consists of a metric name that is mapped by the Bulk Adaptor Design File to a statistic that resides in the input file generated by a network resource.
Either type of collection formula outputs a metric and corresponding unique metric identifier (MID) that are passed along the DataChannel to the Complex Metric Engine for processing.
How is the Data Processed and Loaded into the Database?

The Complex Metric Engine (CME) is a component in the DataChannel that performs calculations on data gathered by the SNMP or Bulk collectors deployed in a network. These calculations include the following: Pre-defined formulas that are provided by a Technology Pack User-defined formulas created using the CME Formula API Time aggregations for sub-elements
In addition to performing calculations on the data stream in the DataChannel, the CME also buffers and sorts metric records according to their RIDs and MIDs to optimize how the data and metrics are stored in the database.
CME Operation
The CME is designed to work with data that is gathered over the space of one hour. Within that hour, there are several distinct phases that characterize the operation of the CME: Loading Phase Building Phase Processing Phase Output Phase
Loading Phase
During the beginning of each hour, the CME creates a new network configuration model based on the inventory structure that exists in the database at that time. This model is used as a snapshot of the network environment and serves as the basis for all metric processing for the entire duration of the hour. At the end of the hour, the CME polls the database for any changes that have been made to the inventory and creates a new network configuration model for the next hour. As the CME reloads its configuration hourly, any metrics produced by sub-elements following the last polling period are rejected by the CME until the beginning of the next hour.
Building Phase
Once the current configuration model has been built, the CME creates a table of sub-elements and metrics that are expected for the current hour. The CME uses the RIDs and MIDs to build the table and determine which metrics should be arriving from the collectors. The table also specifies how resources are related, and determines if there are any CME formulas that must be applied to a sub-elements metrics once the data is gathered.
Processing Phase
Whenever new data arrives at the CME, it is evaluated and stored in the appropriate table location, along with any Resource Aggregation information. Once the input and processing dependencies for a metric in the table have been met, the CME processes the metrics and stores the data until the end of the hour.
Output Phase
At the end of the current hour, the CME outputs everything in memory to the Hourly and Daily Loaders. The data sent to the database loaders includes the sorted data for the current hour, and resource and group aggregations for each of the processing periods up to the current time. The Hourly Loader computes group and resource aggregations, while the Daily Loader creates metric statistics and inserts the data into the database.
How is the Data Reported?

The data collected, processed, and stored in the database by Netcool/Proviso is organized and output for customers using reporter sets that are designed by developers and Professional Services personnel for a specific Technology Pack.
A Technology Pack reporter set is a related group of reports that provide performance information on a specific set of devices or resources that exist in a network. Each report consists of a series of queries that retrieve related sub-elements and their corresponding metrics from the database using the RIDs and MIDs assigned during the inventory and collection processes. The retrieved results are then organized within the report and are displayed on a web portal in the form of tables, graphs, and charts. A Technology Pack provides a variety of reports and charts, including: Resource Summary Reports (RSTs) (sometimes referred to as Resource Summary Tables) aggregate data across time for an individual sub-element and define the statistics that are relevant for a measure of its network performance. Group Summary Reports (GSTs) (sometimes referred to as Group Summary Tables) aggregate data across both time and sub-elements, and define the statistics that are relevant for a measure of network performance for a group of resources. Detail Charts (DCs) display raw data for a metric that has been aggregated for an individual sub-element over a particular period of time. Dashboards display a series of abbreviated tables and charts that provide an overall summary of the metrics collected for the target network resource supported by the Technology Pack. Timeseries charts present time series information, where the x axis is time and the y axis is the data value. TopN reports list the N highest values during a specified time range for a specific metric. Resource Distribution charts (often referred to as pie charts) show the distribution of resources across specific ranges. Typically, a legend for the Resource Distribution chart appears in the report. Resource Over Threshold Tables (RTTs) display a list of resources that have violated their threshold for a specific metric. Typically, users navigate to an RTT from a Group Summary Table (GST), using the threshold overflow cell navigation link. Ratio charts show the relationship of a single metric among different resources or a single resource among different metrics.

Overview
The Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack supplies a set of reports suitable for displaying information about the devices and activity associated with the Redback SmartEdge 800 Service Gateway environment. Reports contain metrics that are generated by the formulas that this technology pack provides. Metric names are the same as the names of the formulas that generate them. For information about a metric that is listed for a particular report, see the description of the associated formula in the collection formula chapter of this guide. This chapter includes information to help you navigate to a particular report on the DataView portal. This navigation path is the same as the path where the report has been deployed through the DataMart Resource Editor. Note, however, that some reports are not explicitly deployed on the portal navigation path. You can display such a report by "drilling down" to it from other reports. For information about understanding report types, creating reports, configuring reports, viewing and working with reports, and deploying reports, see the Netcool/Proviso DataView Users Guide. This Technology Pack Users Guide assumes an understanding of the report-related topics discussed in the Netcool/Proviso DataView Users Guide.

The following pages provide a reference of the reports that this technology pack provides. The reference pages have the following sections: Description. Describes the purpose and content of the report. Reporter Set. The reporter set that the report belongs to. Tables and Charts. The types of tables and charts in this report. For each listed table or chart type, this section shows how many of the given type that the technology pack implements out of the total that the stylesheet provides. For example: Tables: Resource Summary Table (1 of 2 implemented) Charts: Resource Distribution Chart (2 of 2 implemented)
In cases where the stylesheet information is not available for a given report, only the number of tables or charts actually implemented is shown. Metrics Used in Reports. The collection formulas that provide metrics for the report. Navigation Path. The navigation path to use to select the report on the DataView portal. Some reports are not accessed directly from a DataView portal navigation path. You can access such reports by drilling down from another report. If you want to make the report available on the navigation path, you can use the DataMart Resource Editor to deploy it. Drills Down To. One or more reports that can be accessed by drilling down from a table or chart in the report. Drilled Down From. One or more reports from which you can drill down to reach the report.
Reporter Sets
A reporter set contains a group of reporters that together provide information about a specific technology or a vendor device. Technology pack developers use the Reporter Set Wizard to choose the type of template upon which to base the reporter set. Specifically, the Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack uses reporter sets as the framework for defining the reports that display in meaningful ways on a WWW portal the collected information about the devices and technologies that operate in the Redback SmartEdge 800 Service Gateway environment. See the Netcool/Proviso DataView Users Guide for more information about reporter sets and the Reporter Set Wizard.

Chapter 4: Element and Sub-Element Properties

Topic Overview Redback SmartEdge 800 Service Gateway Device Element Properties Redback SmartEdge 800 Service Gateway Device Sub-Element Properties Page 47 47 48
Overview
A Netcool/Proviso property is an attribute or characteristic of an element or sub-element. Typically, a Netcool/Proviso Technology Pack uses an inventory process to collect information generated by the devices, interfaces, and services operating in the technology environment it supports. A technology pack uses Netcool/Proviso properties for some or all of the following purposes: To organize information in reports To display values in reports To construct names such as sub-element names, sub-element instance names, and sub-element labels
The Netcool/Proviso properties associated with sub-elements appear in the Properties list (Sub-Element view) of the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Resource Editor. See the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Configuration Guide for more information on the Resource Editor. The chapter provides tables that list and describe of the properties that the Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack provides.

Chapter 5: Sub-Element Grouping Rules

Topic Overview NOC Reporting Grouping Rules Sub-Element Collect Grouping Rules Page 53 53 58
Overview
Typically, a Netcool/Proviso Technology Pack defines sub-element grouping rules. Grouping rules organize and filter networking data into a structure that makes it easier to collect data on thousands or millions of resources. Sub-element grouping rules organize data in tree structures. Each folder (branch) in the tree is associated with a rule or condition. If a sub-element property satisfies the rule or condition associated with a folder in the grouping tree, the sub-element is placed in the folder. The sub-element is then tested against the rule or condition in the next folder below. If the sub-element passes that test, it is tested against the rule or condition in the next folder, and so on. The Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack uses some of its Netcool/Proviso properties to define sub-element grouping rules. Grouping rule names appear in the Name field (Rule Sub-Element view) of the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Rule Editor. For information on how to use the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Rule Editor, see the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Configuration Guide. The Rule Editor contains two grouping rule trees the NOC reporting tree and the sub-element collect tree. The following sections describe the filtering rules and conditions in these trees.
NOC Reporting Grouping Rules

Overview
A Netcool/Proviso resource is a network element or sub-element, such as a router or a hub. Typically, an IBM Technology Pack defines a set of Netcool/Proviso elements, sub-elements, and properties that map to specific devices and services operating in a network. These resources allow IBM support engineers to: Configure (using the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Request Editor) data collection requests for the subelements associated with each Technology Pack View (using the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Resource Editor) sub-elements and sub-element groups associated with each Technology Pack
Element Names
The element name identifies the element that resides in the database.

Properties Attached to the Redback Device Sub-Element

The Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack merges Redback Device sub-element properties with 1213_Device sub-element properties. The 1213_Device Discovery formula defines the characteristics of and discovers information related to 1213_Device sub-elements. The Redback Device sub-element properties always display with 1213_Device sub-element properties in the Properties list (Sub-Element view) of the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Resource Editor. Thus, in effect, the Redback_Device Discovery formula creates temporary Redback Device sub-elements. The Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack uses the Redback_Device Discovery formula to attach the properties listed in Table 7 to each Redback Device sub-element. The Redback_Device Discovery formula makes use of MIB objects defined in the SNMPv2-MIB (located in the file named rfc1907-SNMPv2-MIB) to calculate some of the values.

Properties Attached to the Redback Interface Sub-Element

The Redback_Interface Discovery formula merges Redback Interface sub-element properties with the properties of all Interface sub-elements discovered by the IETF Discovery formula. Redback Interface subelement properties always display with Interface sub-element properties in the Properties list (Sub-Element view) of the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Resource Editor. Thus, in effect, the Redback_Interface Discovery formula creates temporary Redback Interface sub-elements. The Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack uses the Redback_Interface Discovery formula to attach the properties listed in Table 8 to each Redback Interface sub-element, which in turn are merged with the properties of all Interface sub-elements discovered by the IETF Discovery formula. The Redback_Interface Discovery formula makes use of MIB objects defined in the RFC1213-MIB (located in the file named rfc1213MIB-II). See Chapter 8, Discovery Formulas for information about the Redback_Interface Discovery formula. The table lists the Netcool/Proviso property name and where the Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack uses the property.

Chapter 7: SNMP Collection Formulas

Topic Overview Data Collection Formulas and Metrics Formula Reference Page 77 77 77 78
Overview
The Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack provides SNMP collection formulas specific to the associated network devices and technologies on which it operates. These SNMP collection formulas are installed with the Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack.
Data Collection
This technology pack uses SNMP collection to gather data about Redback SmartEdge 800 Service Gateway devices and services. With SNMP collection, data is gathered from objects in standard and vendor-specific MIBs.
Formulas and Metrics

After the network data is collected, Netcool/Proviso processes the data and generates the metrics that are stored in the DataMart database and used in DataView reports. This processing is performed by the formulas described in this chapter. A metric has the same name as the formula that generates it. Metrics are categorized according to the type of process used to calculate the metric, as follows: SNMP Data collected from MIB objects and processed by formulas included with this technology pack. Formulas that generate SNMP metrics are listed in this chapter in the Syntax section of the reference pages. Generic A metric whose database location is mapped to multiple formulas. This allows the formulas to store the metrics they generate against a single database ID, allowing the metrics to appear in a single DataView report. CME Metrics that are produced by calculations that the Netcool/Proviso Complex Metric Engine (CME) performs, using other metrics and sub-element properties as inputs.
77
Note: Generic and CME formulas may not be included in this technology pack. Metrics may appear in DataView reports as raw data, or they may be further processed by the Complex Metric Engine for example, to produce data aggregations over time. To learn where the metrics generated by the formulas in this chapter are used, see the chapter on supported reports in this guide. This chapter is a reference of the formulas that the Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack provides. The chapter lists formulas alphabetically.
Formula Reference
The following pages provide a reference of the formulas that this technology pack provides. The reference pages have the following sections: Type. The source of data for the formula being described for example, SNMP (collect). Description. The description of the formula. Syntax. The formula that generates the metric from the collected SNMP data. After this formula processes the data, the resulting metric can be used in Netcool/Proviso DataView reports and in calculations of other metrics. See the Netcool/Proviso SNMP Formula Language Guide for detailed information about the syntax used to write SNMP collection formulas. Formula Input. This section appears with CME formulas only. It shows the variables that the CME formula uses as input, and the property or formula that supplies a variables value. In the following example, the formula Egress Octets Forwarded is the source of the value of the input variable EgressOct: Input: EgressOct Source: Egress Octets Forwarded (Formula) Generic Database Alias. A database location where the metric generated by a formula can be stored. Typically, generic metrics serve as repositories in the database for mixed data collected from a particular kind of sub-element for example, low- and high-capacity interfaces. Storing mixed data against a generic metric ID allows you to display the different kinds of data in a single report. Path. The path where the referenced SNMP collection formula is defined in the Netcool/Proviso database. You view the formula tree through the Formula Selector dialog of the Netcool/Proviso Formula Editor.

Chapter 8: Discovery Formulas

Topic Overview Netcool/Proviso Discovery Formula Tree Discovery Formula Structure Page 103 103 103
Overview
A discovery formula (also called an inventory formula) allows Netcool/Proviso to recognize resources specific to the target devices and technologies supported in the Redback SmartEdge 800 Service Gateway environment so that information can then be collected on those resources. A discovery formula runs during the inventory process - the process of discovering and analyzing the network. Discovery formulas for some network interfaces and devices (for example, Frame Relay) are already included with Netcool/Proviso DataMart. The Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack provides discovery formulas specific to the devices and technologies that operate in the Redback SmartEdge 800 Service Gateway environment. This user guide discusses the discovery formulas that the Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack provides.
Netcool/Proviso Discovery Formula Tree
The Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack provides a formula tree where the SNMP discovery formulas are defined in the Netcool/Proviso database. On the following pages, the path that is defined for each formula reflects that formulas location in the formula tree. You can access this directory using the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Formula Selector. See the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Configuration Guide for more information.
Discovery Formula Structure

A discovery formula typically has three sections: Instance variable declaration. Instance variables represent the input values for a formula. The following line is an example of an instance variable declaration:
Dim I1 AS Integer Default * NAME RTTMonIndex;
Temporary variable definition. Temporary variables hold the result of an SNMP query. These variables can then be used as parameters in subsequent queries. The following line is an example of a temporary variable definition:
V01=OIDINST(rttMonCtrlAdminStatus.%I1==1, once);
Results line. The last line in the formula returns the formula result. The results line includes a sub-element instance string and a set of sub-element properties.
103
See the Netcool/Proviso SNMP Formula Language Guide for detailed information about the syntax used to write discovery formulas.
The Results Line

The discovery formula results line has four fields. Fields are delimited by a double-bar (||): Field 1 specifies the sub-element instance string transmitted to each collection formula when the specified sub-element is deployed for collection. The instance string for a given sub-element appears in the instance field (Sub-Element view) of the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Resource Editor. Field 2 specifies the custom label of a sub-element. The custom label for a given sub-element appears in the label field (Sub-Element view) of the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Resource Editor. The custom label may also display in reports that show statistics for a sub-element. The custom label typically displays under some Name, Device Name, or some similar column. Field 3 defines the property list (as name/value pairs). The property list for a given sub-element appears in the Property and Value columns (Sub-Element view) of the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Resource Editor. Field 4 is an optional field that, if specified, contains the invariant of the sub-element. The invariant is used during the synchronization process to detect a change of element properties, including the instance string (the first field). Note: The results line must appear as a single line in the formula.

Furthermore, the Redback_Device Discovery formula attaches properties to each Redback Device sub-element. Some of these properties display values associated with the defined OID objects. See the discovered properties chapter for descriptions of the properties that the Redback_Device Discovery formula attaches to Redback Device sub-elements. The Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack merges Redback Device sub-element properties with 1213_Device sub-element properties. The 1213_Device Discovery formula defines the characteristics of and discovers information related to 1213_Device sub-elements.

Type
SNMP (discovery)
Description
The Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack provides a Redback_SysMonitor_Storage Discovery formula that defines the characteristics of and discovers information related to Redback Storage sub-elements. The Redback_SysMonitor_Storage Discovery formula defines OIDVAL expression lines that reference OID objects defined in the RBN-SYS-RESOURCES-MIB (located in the file named RBN-SYS-RESOURCES-MIB.my). Furthermore, the Redback_SysMonitor_Storage Discovery formula attaches properties to each Redback Storage sub-element. Some of these Netcool/Proviso properties display values associated with the defined OID objects. The following list identifies some of the information that Redback Storage sub-element properties provide: A textual description of this storage device, optionally including the devices manufacturer, revision, and its serial number. Type of media used in this long-term storage device. Total size for this long-term storage device. Whether the media is removable and is currently removed.
See the discovered properties chapter for descriptions of the properties that the Redback_SysMonitor_Storage Discovery formula attaches to Redback Storage sub-elements.

Overview
The Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack is a MIB-based, SNMP pack, and its configuration is relatively straightforward.
Before You Begin

Before configuring the Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack, ensure that you: Have the following software or guides: The release notes for the current technology pack release. The version of the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Configuration Guide that corresponds to your version of Netcool/Proviso. Important: You will need to refer to this guide in order to create an inventory profile and initiate a discovery. Access to the Netcool/Proviso DataMart server. An X Window server on the DataMart server. Note: (Pre-443 Netcool/Proviso) If there is no graphics card on the DataMart server, you can install the Xvfb virtual frame buffer package to provide X Window services, as described in the Netcool/Proviso Installation Guide. Access to the SilverStream server. Access to the DataChannel server.
113
Have completed the following tasks: Installed the current version of the Netcool/Proviso components, as described in the Netcool/Proviso Installation Guide. Installed the MIB-II technology pack Note: Starting with version 4.3-T, the MIB-II Technology Pack no longer resides in the single bundled jar file. It is a stand-alone technology pack that is contained in its own jar file. Installed the Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack. Configured at least one DataChannel. Configured an SNMP Collector subchannel.
Configure the Technology Pack

To configure the Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack, follow these steps: Important: Localization is now done automatically during installation of the technology pack and requires no manual steps to configure. 1. Load the DataMart environment. To load the shell with the DataMart environment, follow these steps: 1-a. Log in to the DataMart server as pvuser. 1-b. Change your working directory to the DataMart home directory (/opt/datamart, by default), using the following command:
cd /opt/datamart
1-c. Load the shell with the DataMart environment, by sourcing the dataMart.env file, as follows:
. /opt/datamart/dataMart.env
Note: After you load the DataMart environment into the shell, the PVMHOME variable is set to the DataMart home directory, /opt/datamart by default. These instructions assume that this variable has been set. 2. Activate data collection requests. During installation of the technology pack, all predefined data collection requests are promoted to the database and set to inactive (that is, idle displays in the Active column of the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Request Editor). You need to activate these predefined data collection requests using the Request Editor. To set data collection requests to active, follow these steps: 2-a. Change your working directory to $PVMHOME/bin (/opt/datamart/bin, by default) on the DataMart server. 2-b. Invoke the DataMart GUI by entering the following command and pressing Enter:
pvm
2-c. Click the Configuration tab, then click Request Editor to open the Request Editor. 2-d. Click the Collection tab.
114
2-e. Click Refresh. The predefined data collection requests are loaded into the Request Editor from the database. 2-f. Click the Inactive button in the Filter group box to display only idle requests. 2-g. In the Sub-Element Groups pane, select all idle data collection requests in the following group or groups:
Root->Sub-Element Collect->Redback
2-h. Click the Active box under Details. The Request Editor toggles the idle setting for these data collection requests from idle to active in the Active column. 2-i. Click Save. 3. Merge the technology packs sub-element inventory text files. Sub-element inventory control rules for the Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack are contained in the file redback_se_inventory_subelements.txt, which is installed in the following directory on the DataMart server:
$PVMHOME/APFiles/redback_se800/datamart/conf
You must merge the contents of this file with the file inventory_subelements.txt located in $PVMHOME/conf (/opt/datamart/conf, by default) on the DataMart server: To merge the sub-element inventory control rules for the Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack, follow these steps: 3-a. Change your working directory to $PVMHOME/conf by entering the following command:
cd $PVMHOME/conf
3-b. Copy redback_se_inventory_subelements.txt to the $PVMHOME/conf directory, by entering the following command:
cp $PVMHOME/APFiles/redback_se800/datamart/conf/redback_se_inventory_subelements.txt .
3-c. Make a backup copy of the inventory_subelements.txt file by entering the following command:
cp inventory_subelements.txt inventory_subelements.txt.ORIG
3-d. Append the contents of redback_se_inventory_subelements.txt to inventory_subelements.txt, by entering the following command:
cat redback_se_inventory_subelements.txt >> inventory_subelements.txt
Important: Ensure that you use two forward brackets (>>); otherwise, the original contents of inventory_subelements.txt will be overwritten. 3-e. Perform a diff on the backed-up file and the appended file to ensure that the merge succeeded, as shown in the following example:
diff inventory_subelements.txt inventory_subelements.txt.ORIG
4.
(Requires the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Configuration Guide) Run the initial SNMP inventory and initiate a discovery. An inventory collects data about the network resources that the technology pack monitors. After you install an SNMP technology pack, you must create an inventory profile using the Inventory Tool Wizard and then initiate a discovery by executing the inventory profile using the Inventory Tool. Running the initial inventory against SNMP objects is an intricate task and unfortunately beyond the scope of this configuration appendix. For instructions on using the Inventory Tool Wizard to create an inventory
115
profile and the Inventory Tool to execute the inventory profile, see the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Configuration Guide. 5. Deploy reports. After the technology pack installation completes, the rules for the new device are automatically loaded into the database. The inventory process uses those rules to group elements and sub-elements. You must manually deploy (auto-group) the reports by associating them with groups in the DataMart Resource Editors NOC Reporting tree. To deploy the Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack reports, follow these steps: 5-a. Open the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Resource Editor. 5-b. Click the ReportSEGroup tab. 5-c. Move the cursor to the left pane and scroll up to select any group under the SUB-ELEMENTS->NOC Reporting tree. 5-d. Right-click and select the AutoGrouping option from the menu. The AutoGrouping option places the reports in dynamically generated groups created during inventory. 5-e. Click Yes to continue. 5-f. Click Close to exit the message box, or click Details to view a description of any errors. 5-g. (Optional) You can also deploy reports on a regular basis by creating a cron entry that makes use of the inventory CLI command and the -reportGrouping option. This option instructs the inventory command to run the report grouping rules and update the deployed reports stored in the database. Report grouping rules must first have been created before this option can be used. For information on creating report grouping rules, see the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Configuration Guide. The following example shows a cron entry that periodically performs the deploy report operation:
0 * * * * . /opt/datamart/dataMart.env && inventory -noX -reportGrouping
See the Netcool/Proviso Command Line Interface Guide for more information about the inventory command.
Other Tasks and Considerations

This section contains information on the following topics: Verifying Resources Changing Predefined Threshold Requests
Verifying Resources
Use the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Resource Editor to determine if the technology packs resources (elements, sub-elements, properties, and so forth) were successfully discovered and created in the database during inventory. See the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Configuration Guide for information on using the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Resource Editor.
116
Changing Predefined Threshold Requests

The Redback SE 800 BRAS Technology Pack supplies predefined threshold requests. The setup program automatically loads these predefined threshold requests into the database and configures them for you. You do not need to activate them, but you can use the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Resource Editor to change them. See the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Configuration Guide for information on working with predefined threshold requests.
