Adding OVOW Server on our DMZ

Churby_1 — Thu, 17 Aug 2006 14:23:07 GMT

Hello All...
I am interested in monitoring servers on our DMZ with the ability to send messages /traps to our internal OVOW server. Allowing operations to view 1 console for all messages.

I am considering placing an OVOW Server on the DMZ, opening only 1 port to send messages to our Internal OVOW server.

I am looking for solutions/documentation to for best practices, port to open, etc...

Our current environment consists of 1 OVOW Management server with OVIS and Reporter residing on the same box. We currently monitor 96 nodes.
There are 35 servers on our DMZ.

Thanks,
Connie

I have done this before and this is how I did it.

Servers in the DMZ
open ports in DMZ for the servers to talk to the SIM server.

SIM forward events to OV.

Tada :)

Not all servers on our DMZ are HP. We also have Dell and IBM.
