For a Warehouse Proxy Agent to run in autonomous mode, it must be configured to run without registering its location with the hub monitoring server.
Every monitoring agent that sends historical data to the Warehouse Proxy Agent must be configured with its location.
To configure the Warehouse Proxy Agent to
run without registering, complete the following steps:
- Install and configure one or more Warehouse Proxy Agents
following the procedures in the appropriate chapter:
- Tivoli Data Warehouse solution using DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows
- Tivoli Data Warehouse solution using Microsoft SQL Server
- Tivoli Data Warehouse solution using Oracle
Note: The installation procedure for Windows operating systems includes steps for configuring the connection between the proxy agent and the hub Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server. On Linux or UNIX operating systems, this step is performed in a separate configuration procedure. On Windows operating systems, if you want to run the Warehouse Proxy Agent without a connection to the hub, accept the defaults for the connection information, but specify a nonvalid name for the monitoring server. On UNIX and Linux operating systems, check No TEMS on the TEMS Connection tab of the configuration window. - Add the following variable to the Warehouse Proxy Agent environment
file (install_dir\TMAITM6\KHDENV on Windows operating systems; install_dir/config/hd.ini
on UNIX and Linux operating systems):
KHD_REGWITHGLB=N - Configure the Warehouse Proxy Agent to use the same IP port number as you chose for the various autonomous agents that will be sending historical data to it; see the IBM Tivoli Monitoring Administrator's Guide for details.
- Restart the agent.
- Restart
the agent's Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server,
if necessary.
If the Warehouse Proxy Agent you reconfigured to run autonomously has previously connected to either a hub monitoring server or a remote monitoring server, the agent has already registered with the monitoring server to which it connected. To clear this registration information now that the agent is running autonomously, recycle the monitoring server. If the monitoring server is a remote monitoring server, also recycle the hub monitoring server to which it connects.
To configure a monitoring agent with the location of the Warehouse Proxy Agent or
agents to which it should export historical data, complete the following
steps:
- Install the agent following Installing monitoring agents or the documentation for the agent.
- Open the monitoring agent environment file in a text editor:
install_dir\TMAITM6\kpcenv
install_dir/config/pc.ini
&hilev.&rte.RKANPARU(KPCENV)
- Add the following variable to the file:
The value of the variable can be a semicolon-delimited list of network addresses. For example:KHD_WAREHOUSE_LOCATION=family protocol.#network address[port number]KHD_WAREHOUSE_LOCATION=ip.pipe:SYS2-XP[63358];ip:SYS2-XP[63358] - Restart the agent.
