Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Words and Phrases
| Search for | Example | Results |
|---|---|---|
| A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
|
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Using Boolean Operators
| Search for | Operator | Example |
|---|---|---|
|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
| Either word in a topic |
|
|
| Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
| Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
| A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

To connect an agent-monitored system to Monitoring Automation, you must first ensure that the Operations Agent is installed on that system, connect the agent to OMi, and then grant the required certificates.
Note The Operations Agent is licensed separately.
Tip Include agent installation in your virtual machine cloning, in your general software distribution process, or use a distribution tool, such as SCP, for remote installation.
For details, see the Operations Agent documentation.
To connect an Operations Agent to OMi, follow these steps:
-
Prerequisite. Install Operations Agent on the system that you want to monitor. When installing the agent, specify the gateway server, load balancer, or reverse proxy as the agent's management server.
For information about installing the Operations Agent, see the Operations Agent Help.
If the agent is installed in inactive mode, for example for preinstallation in a virtual machine image, manually connect the agent to OMi:
-
Log on to your systems where the Operations Agent is installed.
-
Navigate to the following location:
-
Windows 64-bit:
%OvInstallDir%\bin\win64\OpC\installWindows 32-bit:
%OvInstallDir%\bin\OpC\install%OvInstallDir%default:C:\Program Files\HP\HP BTO Software\ -
AIX, HP-UX, Linux, and Solaris:
/opt/OV/bin/OpC/install/
-
-
Run the following script at a command prompt:
-
Windows:
cscript opcactivate.vbs -srv <Gateway_Server> -
AIX, HP-UX, Linux, and Solaris:
opcactivate.sh -srv <Gateway_Server>
-
-
-
In the OMi user interface, open the Certificate Requests manager and accept the new certificate request:
Administration > Setup and Maintenance > Certificate Requests
Alternatively, click Certificate Requests.
For more information about granting certificate requests, see Grant or deny certificate requests manually.
Tip You can grant certificates automatically using preconfigured IP ranges or a groovy script. For details, see Grant certificates automatically by IP address and Grant or deny certificate requests using a script.
-
Optional. Check HTTPS communication in both directions using the command:
bbcutil -ping https://<FQDN>If the connection is successful, the command returns
status=eServiceOK.
