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.

Search for	Operator	Example
Two or more words in the same topic	`AND` `and` `+` (plus symbol) `&` (ampersand)	`cat AND dog` `"cat food"+milk` `"cat food"&"dog food"`
Either word in a topic	`OR` `or` `\|` (pipe)	`cat OR dog` `cat \| dog`
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase	`NOT` `not` `!` (exclamation point)	`NOT cat` `! dog`
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another	`^` (caret)	`cat ^ mouse`
A combination of search types	`( )` parentheses	`cat + (dog \| mouse)` `cat \| dog + (! mouse)`

Configure Integration to Monitor Multiple VROPS Servers

To monitor multiple VROPS servers with a single integration, create new instances of the VROPS integration configuration:

In the /var/opt/OV/datafiles (Linux) or %OvDataDir%datafiles (Windows) directory, create a new directory named HPBsmIntVROps<server>, where <server> is an identifier, used for the server throughout the following steps. For example, HPBsmIntVROpsSys1.
In the /var/opt/OV/tmp (Linux) or %OvDataDir%tmp (Windows) directory, create a new directory named HPBsmIntVROps<server>.
Go to the /var/opt/OV/conf (Linux) or %OvDataDir%conf (Windows) directory and make a copy of the HPBsmIntVROps directory. Name it HPBsmIntVROps<server>.
Go to the /var/opt/OV/Installation (Linux) or %OvDataDir%installation (Windows) directory and make a copy of the ovc directory. Name it ovc<server>.
In the /var/opt/OV/conf/HPBsmIntVROps<server> (Linux) or %OvDataDir%conf/HPBsmIntVROps<server> (Windows) directory, create a copy of vrops_remote.conf file and name them as follows:

vrops_remote<server>.conf
Open the vrops_remote<server>.conf file and change the following attributes:
1. 'log-file' : '/var/opt/OV/log/vropsremote.%d.log'
  
  to
  
  'log-file' : '/var/opt/OV/log/vropsremote<server>.%d.log '
2. Change the vrops-hostname and vrops-port options to the corresponding VROPS system.
3. ‘vrops_user’
  
  to
  
  ‘vrops_user<server>’
4. ‘vrops_password’
  
  to
  
  ‘vrops_password<server>’
5. ‘datafiles/HPBsmIntVROps’
  
  to
  
  ‘datafiles/HPBsmIntVROps<server>’
6. ‘idIPDns.txt’
  
  to
  
  ‘idIPDns<server>.txt’
7. ‘vrops_topology.xml’
  
  to ‘
  
  vrops_topology<server>.xml’
8. ‘events/HPBsmIntVROps’
  
  to
  
  ‘events/HPBsmIntVROps<server>’
9. ‘tmp/HPBsmIntVROps’
  
  to
  
  ‘tmp/HPBsmIntVROps<server>’
10. ‘metrics/HPBsmIntVROps’
  
  to
  
  ‘metrics/HPBsmIntVROps<server>’
11. 'vrops_metric_timestamp'
  
  to
  
  ‘vrops_metric_timestamp<server>’
12. ‘vrops_alerts_timestamp’
  
  to
  
  ‘vrops_alerts_timestamp<server>’
13. ‘vrops_topology_discovery.xml’
  
  to
  
  ‘vrops_topology_discovery<server>.xml’
14. ‘vrops_events.xml’
  
  to
  
  ‘vrops_events<server>.xml’
15. ‘vrops_metrics.xml’
  
  to
  
  ‘vrops_metrics<server>.xml’
Enter credential for each server (go to /opt/OV/bin64 for Linux).
1. genintcrypt ––generate
2. genintcrypt ––set vrops_user<server>
3. genintcrypt ––set vrops_password<server>
Go to the /var/opt/OV/installation/HPBsmIntVROps/ovc<server> (Linux) or %OvDataDir%installation\HPBsmIntVROps\ovc<server> (Windows) folder. Create a copy of HPBsmIntVROps.xml file and rename it to HPBsmIntVROps<server>.xml

Open the HPBsmIntVROps<server>.xml file and change the following lines:
1. ‘<ovc:Name>vrops’
  
  to
  
  ‘<ovc:Name>vrops<server>’
2. ‘VROPS’
  
  to
  
  ‘VROPS<server>’
3. ‘<ovc:CommandLine>HPBsmIntVROps’
  
  to
  
  ‘<ovc:CommandLine>HPBsmIntVROps<server>’
4. ‘vrops_remote.conf’
  
  to
  
  ‘vrops_remote<server>.conf'
5. '"$ConfDir/HPBsmIntVROps/vrops_remote.conf'
  
  to
  
  '"$ConfDir/HPBsmIntVROps<server>/vrops_remote<server>.conf'
Register new ovc processes:

For Linux:

/opt/OV/bin/ovcreg -add /var/opt/OV/installation/HPBsmIntVROps/ovc<server> HPBsmIntVROps<server>.xml

For Windows:

ovcreg -add %OvDataDir%installation\HPBsmIntVROps\ovc<server> HPBsmIntVROps<server>.xml
Open the Operations Connector console and create a copy of each policy. Name them as follows:

Operations Connector for VROPS (xx.xx) - Event Integration<server>

Operations Connector for VROPS (xx.xx) - Metric Integration<server>

Operations Connector for VROPS (xx.xx) - Topology Integration<server>

Operations Connector for VROPS (xx.xx) - Topology Self Discovery<server>
1. Open the Operations Connector for VROPS (xx.xx) - Event Integration<server> policy and performing the following:
  1. Change the source path from HPBsmIntVROps to HPBsmIntVROps<server>
  2. Change the default source event ID from VROps:<$DATA:/vrops_event_message/alertid> to VROps<server>:<$DATA:/vrops_event_message/alertid>
2. Open the policy Operations Connector for VROPS (xx.xx) - Metric Integration <server> and change source path from HPBsmIntVROps to HPBsmIntVROps<server>
3. Open the policy Operations Connector for VROPS (xx.xx) - Topology Integration <server> policy and change the source topology XML file from <$OvDataDir>/datafiles/HPBsmIntVROps/vrops_topology.xml to <$OvDataDir>/datafiles/HPBsmIntVROps<server>/vrops_topology<server>.xml.
4. Open the policy Operations Connector for VROPS (xx.xx) - Topology Self Discovery <server> and change the source topology XML file from <$OvDataDir>/datafiles/HPBsmIntVROps/vrops_selfdiscoverytopo.xml to <$OvDataDir>/datafiles/HPBsmIntVROps<server>/vrops_selfdiscoverytopo<server>.xml
Start the ovc services:

For Linux: /opt/OV/bin/ovc -start vrops<server>

For Windows: ovc -start vrops<server>
