In addition to performing the configuration and administration tasks that are common to all Global Managers, you perform the following additional tasks to set up the Global Manager in an IP Manager deployment:

  • Configure the Global Manager and any remote Global Consoles with the SM_IP_VERSIONS environment variable for name resolution and server-to-server communication.

    The Service Assurance Manager Configuration Guide provides information for performing this task.

  • Set up a communication link between the Global Manager and the IP Manager components.

  • Set up a communication link between the Global Manager and the Adapter Platform.

  • Set up a communication link between the Global Manager and the satellite Domain Managers.

    The configuration guides for the individual satellite Domain Managers provide information for performing this task.

    Note:

    Procedures for configuring all aspects of the Global Manager are provided in the Service Assurance Manager Configuration Guide.
