This section helps you in editing certain parameters for Alarming Notifications to flow in Operational UI Notification log view.

Procedure

  1. Go to SAM installed location: /opt/InCharge/SAM/smarts/bin.
  2. To enable or disable the alarm notifications, edit the alert_svc_msg.conf file using sm_edit command.
    For example, ./sm_edit ../conf/icoi/alert_svc_msg.conf.

    EnableAlertServiceSubscription
  4. Generate certificates and get the username and password for the Kafka Access Settings Credential. To get the certificates Scram username and password, run the following commands. 
    a) kubectl get secret edge-cluster-ca-cert -o jsonpath='{.data.ca\.crt}' | base64 --decode > ca.crt	
b) kubectl get secret edge-cluster-ca-cert -o jsonpath='{.data.ca\.password}' | base64 --decode > ca.password 
c) export PASSWORD=`cat ca.password` 
d) keytool -noprompt -importcert -alias strimzi-kafka-cert -file ca.crt -keystore cacerts -keypass $PASSWORD -storepass $PASSWORD

e) export USER_NAME=kafka-scram-sha-512-client-credentials
f) export SCRAM_PASSWORD_FILE_PATH=user-scram.password
g) kubectl get secret $USER_NAME -o jsonpath='{.data.password}' | base64 --decode > $SCRAM_PASSWORD_FILE_PATH
h) export SCRAM_PASSWORD=`cat $SCRAM_PASSWORD_FILE_PATH`

    Copy the ca certificates file generated in step d to SAM installation.

  5. Provide the Domain Manager node IP address in which gateway Kafka is running.
