Importing default policies into Central Monitoring Administration
During installation of the TrueSight Presentation Server, several default monitoring policies are added to the Presentation Server installation directory. To shorten your configuration time, BMC recommends that you import the default policies before you create your own policies for PATROL Agent configuration.
Location of files
Import command | Windows: %TRUESIGHTPSERVER_HOME%\truesightpserver\bin\cmapolicymigration.bat Linux: $TRUESIGHTPSERVER_HOME/truesightpserver/bin/cmapolicymigration.sh Example: C:\Program Files\BMC Software\TrueSightPServer\truesightpserver\bin\cmapolicymigration.bat |
|---|---|
Default policy file | Windows: %TRUESIGHTPSERVER_HOME%\truesightpserver\data\oob_policiesTrueSight10_OOTB_Policies.mo Linux: $TRUESIGHTPSERVER_HOME/truesightpserver/data/oob_policies/TrueSight10_OOTB_Policies.mo Example: C:\Program Files\BMC Software\TrueSightPServer\truesightpserver\data\TrueSight10_OOTB_Policies.mo |
Before you begin
You must have successfully imported the base repository files.
Because of an issue with version 10.0 of the repository, you must have edited the TrueSight10_OOTB_Policies.mo file, as described in The-default-policies-do-not-load-successfully.
To import policy files
- On the Presentation Server host, access the bin directory that contains the import command:
- Windows: CD /D "%TRUESIGHTPSERVER_HOME%\truesightpserver\bin\"
- Linux: cd $TRUESIGHTPSERVER_HOME/truesightpserver/bin
- From the bin directory, run one of the following commands:
- Windows: cmapolicymigration.bat import -d <policiesDirectory>
- Linux: ./cmapolicymigration.sh import -d <policiesDirectory>
At the end of the import process, a message, similar to the following response is displayed:
"Import Policy To TrueSight"
Policy 'Windows Default' imported successfully
Policy 'Linux Default' imported successfully
Where to go from here
To view the imported policies, access All Monitoring Policies in Central Monitoring Administration, as shown in the following image:
If a problem occurs
If the import process fails, see The-default-policies-do-not-load-successfully in Troubleshooting.
