RE: LDAP - How to implement Dynamic Groups?

I believe you specify the Organization with the "o" attribute, which won't be part of the DN. So an entry for a user will be something like: dn: CN=NETCOOL_ADMINISTRATOR,OU=Company,DC=como: Your_Organization Then you can create a rule that specifies "Organization" "Equals" "Your_Organization" to include ...

Hi Antonio, From my understanding of the documentation (https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/cloud-paks/cloud-pak-aiops/4.5.0?topic=control-managing-user-groups), it doesn't look like "LDAP Dynamic Groups" are supported. HOWEVER, you can create a dynamic group of LDAP users based on attribute values within AIOps ...

See Zane Bray's reply to Antonio's original question, along with the architecture diagram and you'll see that DASH/JazzSM/WebGUI is a completely different UI. There is still a connection to OMNIbus, but, as you state, it is no longer the primary database. ------------------------------ Frank Tate ...

Not that I've seen. Normally, this "management plane" is single instance, managed by a single team for the entire cluster, and that team can then allow individual users whatever access they need to whatever data they need (based on labels or other attributes of the events generated). We have set up some ...

Ah. Now I understand. Here are my thoughts. YMMV: The approach I would take is to first look at the Zabbix integrations with alerting and notification systems here https://www.zabbix.com/integrations?cat=notifications_alerting . I would then look at the customer's environment to see if they already ...

Hi Thierry, I can't give you the software, and the only way I know of to get it (other than buying a license as a customer) is through IBM's Partner Plus program. If you're working for a client, they should have the software installed or at least have access to it. Why do you need the Netcool software? ...

Yes. I would send the Zabbix alert out using a script: https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/current/en/manual/config/notifications/media/script . To receive that in Netcool, you would need to configure the Probe for Message Bus, which can be configured as an HTTP/S receiver. That would receive the alert ...

Welcome back, Thierry! For on-prem, the replacement is OMNIbus plus Impact. OMNIbus consists of the ObjectServer (the SQL-based event repository with triggers that can do simple correlations), probes (event receivers and "pullers", depending on the probe), and gateways (used primarily to send event ...

Anywhere DB2 can be used, it is possible to use DB2 HADR. However, it always has some caveats. Specifically, the prescribed way to implement DB2 HADR involves the use of TSAM, and that configuration will shut down the primary DB2 server host of any problem is encountered. This will bring down the entire ...

Ken, Deleting the entire jar file will cause problems and is unnecessary to mitigate the issue. Here's what you need to do: find / -name "log4j-core-*.jar" -exec zip -q -d () org/apache/logging/log4j/core/lookup/JndiLookup.class \; reboot The above command will find all files named "log4j-core-*.jar" ...
