Integrating Applications into ITO

Integrating Applications into ITO

Integrating Applications into ITO

ITO allows graphical invocation of applications (“point and click”) by
means of the operators’

Application Desktop

. A different set of

applications can be assigned to each ITO operator to match specific
requirements.

If you have purchased an application which is prepared for ITO
integration (for example, HP OpenView OpenSpool, HP OpenView
OmniBack II, or HP OpenView OmniStorage) you can integrate it
quickly and easily using

opccfgupld(1M)

.

You can integrate applications into the following components of ITO:

❏ operators’

Application Desktop

or administrator’s

ITO

Application Bank

❏ broadcast

❏ automatic/operator-initiated actions, and scheduled actions

❏ monitoring

❏ logfile encapsulation

❏ SNMP trap and message interception

This section also explains how ITO starts applications and broadcasts.

Integrating Applications into the Application
Desktop

You can add your own applications to the

ITO Application Bank

and

assign them to an operator. The applications are then invoked when the
operator double-clicks a symbol in the

Application Desktop

. You can

add the following types of applications to the

ITO Application Bank

:

• ITO applications

• HP OpenView applications
