If the Adapter was previously deployed, VMware Corporation recommends that you install the new Adapter version to a new location. Then, migrate any customized values for the following files from the old version to the new version:

  • emsConfig.import

  • ASA-Filter.conf

  • ASA-Alarm.conf

  • AggregateAlarms.conf

  • DevicesNotInEffect.conf

  • displayNames.conf

    The VMware Smart Assurance Adapter for Alcatel-Lucent 5620 SAM EMS User Guide provides important configuration instructions for the samOss.jar file.

    Important:

    If any other file has been changed, please contact VMware. Do not try to customize any other configuration file.

    The VMware Smart Assurance Adapter for Alcatel-Lucent 5620 SAM EMS User Guide provides detailed information about configuration parameters.

    Note:

    If your deployment includes multiple Adapters, use the procedure in “Migration for multiple-Adapter deployment” to minimize down time.
