When you modify the content of a weights or event filter import datafile that has already been loaded by the source Global Manager, you must issue an sm_adapter command to force the Global Manager to reload the elements defined in the weights and event filter import datafiles. The sm_adapter command invokes the drivers that load the elements defined in these datafiles.

To reload business weight and event filter elements:

  1. In the installation area from which the source Global Manager is invoked, go to the BASEDIR/smarts/bin directory and type the following command:

                   s
                   
                   m_adapter -s <
                   Global Manager name
                   > ics/ICS_RemoteConfig.as
                   l
                   sm_adapter -s INCHARGE-SA ics/ICS_RemoteConfig.asl
                
  2. If prompted for a username and password, specify your user account; for example, to specify the default administrative account, type username admin and password changeme.

    Each time a weights or event filter import datafile is reloaded, the new definition set replaces the current one. Any eliminated definition from a weights or event filter import datafile will remove that definition from the Global Manager’s memory.
