Adding a domain to XD Manager OTM-to-IP AM

To configure XD Manager OTM to IP to communicate with the Optical Transport Manager servers and IP Manager servers, modify the existing domain server entries and comment out or delete the extra domain entries that do not apply to your configuration.

You must have one “InChargeDomain” entry for each server from which XD Manager OTM to IP will import topology or events.

1. From a command line, change to the BASEDIR/smarts/conf/icxd-ao directory.

2. Open domain.conf using sm_edit:

   # sm_edit domain.conf
   InChargeDomain::InChargeDomain_AM-1 
   {
   Type = "AM"
   DomainName = "AM-1"
   }
   InChargeDomain::InChargeDomain_OTM-SDH-TOPOLOGY 
   {
   Type = "SDH-T"
   DomainName = "OTM-SDH-TOPOLOGY"
   }
   InChargeDomain::InChargeDomain_OTM-SDH-ANALYSIS 
   {
   Type = "SDH-A"
   DomainName = "OTM-SDH-ANALYSIS"
   }
   InChargeDomain::InChargeDomain_OTM-PDH-TOPOLOGY 
   {
   Type = "LOSDH-T"
   DomainName = "OTM-PDH-TOPOLOGY"
   }
   InChargeDomain::InChargeDomain_OTM-PDH-ANALYSIS 
   {
   Type = "LOSDH-A"
   DomainName = "OTM-PDH-ANALYSIS"
   }
   InChargeDomain::InChargeDomain_OTM-WDM-TOPOLOGY 
   {
   Type = "WDM-T"
   DomainName = "OTM-WDM-TOPOLOGY"
   }
   InChargeDomain::InChargeDomain_OTM-WDM-ANALYSIS 
   {
   Type = "WDM-A"
   DomainName = "OTM-WDM-ANALYSIS"
   }
   InChargeDomain::InChargeDomain_OTM-WDM-NG {
       Type = "WDM-NG"
       DomainName = "OTM-WDM-NG"
   }
   

3. Modify the object name, the name following InChargeDomain::, to the name of your IP Manager server. For example, change “InChargeDomain_AM-1” to “IP_Domain_East-1”.

   Note:

   Do not modify the parent part of the object name, that is, the “InChargeDomain::” part should remain as is.

4. Modify the AM DomainName for the IP AM server to a name appropriate to your system. This is the name of the IP AM server that the SAM Global Console will connect to.

5. Modify the DomainName of the OTM servers, for example "OTM-SDH-TOPOLOGY", to a name appropriate to your system. This is the name that the SAM Global Console will connect to.

   Important:

   When specifying OTM domains (except WDM-NG), both the analysis and topology/monitoring server for a given domain must be specified. For example, both OTM-SDH-TOPOLOGY, and OTM-SDH-ANALYSIS must be listed in domain.conf.

6. Domain Type must be set as appropriate to match the 'ElementTypeGlob' specifications for the DXA import drivers defined in topo-driver.conf. The Type field should be one of the following:

   • “AM” for the IP Availability Manager server

     • “WDM-T” for the Optical Transport Manager WDM Topology server

     • “WDM-A” for the Optical Transport Manager WDM Analysis server

     • "LOSDH-T" for the Optical Transport Manager PDH Topology server

     • "LOSDH-A" for the Optical Transport Manager PDH Analysis server

     • “SDH-T” for the Optical Transport Manager SONET/SDH Topology server

     • "SDH-A" for the Optical Transport Manager SONET/SDH Analysis server

     • “WDM-NG” for the Optical Transport Manager WDM-NG combined server.

       Important:

       A given XD Manager OTM-to-IP AM server can cross-correlate IP Manager with either SONET/SDH servers (low-order or high-order), WDM, or WDM-NG servers but not both. Low-order SONET/SDH (PDH) and high-order SONET/SDH servers are compatible with each other connecting to a single XD Manager OTM-to-IP AM server.

7. Comment out or delete any domains which are not being used in your configuration.

8. Save and exit the domain.conf file. The modified version of the file is saved to the BASEDIR/smarts/local/conf/icxd-ao directory in the XD Manager OTM to IP installation area.
