Integrating Applications into ITO
Integrating Applications into ITO
❏ If you have defined them to do so in the application registration file
(ARF), both OV Application and OV Service integrations can cause a
daemon to start running when the ITO session is started.
❏ By integrating ITO as an OV Application you integrate a single action
as a desktop icon (as defined in the ARF).
❏ By integrating ITO as an OV Service you integrate all actions as
menu items (as defined in the ARF).
NOTE New users who do not have the IP-Map application assigned can still log
in to ITO and run the command;
ovw -map , which opens
a “fake” IP Map for the specified user that is also present each time the
same user subsequently starts ITO. However, the user cannot do
anything with this faked IPMap as the full menus and services that are
usually present in the
IP Map window are not available in this instance.
The ITO administrator should ensure that the directory tree
/var/opt/OV/share/databases/openview/mapdb is owned by root.
Allowing an Operator to View and Manage the opology of
IP Networks in the IP Map.
1. Working as the administrator, from the menu bar of the root IP Map,
select Window:Application Bank… . The ITO Application
Bank window opens.
2. Double-click on the application group labeled OV Services .
3. Drag and drop the application labeled IP Map into an operator’s
Assigned Applications window to enable the operator to manage
the IP topology.
4. (Re-)start the operator session.
5. Verify that the IP topology is being built under the IP Internet symbol
in the root submap.
Integrating “Ethernet Traffic HP” as an OV Application.

Actions:Applications->Add OV Application… . The Add OV
Application window opens.
