How to Configure Policies for Event Synchronization

The event that Operations Connector forwards to OMi must include the original ID of the event in the third-party system. Otherwise OMi and Operations Connector do not know which event to update in the third-party system.

To configure policies for event synchronization:

  1. Create or edit an event integration policy.

  2. Set the Source Event ID attribute in the Event Attributes tab.

    The source event ID attribute may not be available in all event attributes tabs. For example, the default event attributes of SNMP trap and open message interface policy editors do not include this attribute.

  3. Click Save and Close to save the policy and close the editor.

  4. Optional. Activate the policy for your changes to take effect.

The next step in configuring event synchronization is to create a Perl script that receives the event changes and forwards them to the corresponding third-party system. See How to Write Perl Scripts for Event Synchronization topic.
