CorrectTimeSkew

An option used to synchronize date/time stamps between server clocks. If True, all date/time stamps are adjusted to reflect the time differences between two Operations Center servers. If False, all date/time stamps are displayed as received from the remote server and no adjustments are made for time differences between two servers. The default is True.

DiscoverAdministration

If True, the Administration branch on a remote server is accessible on the connected machine. If False, the Administration branch is not accessible.

For details on the administration tasks that can be performed remotely, see the Operations Center 5.6 Server Configuration Guide.

DiscoverAll

If False, discovery of remote elements occurs as they are revealed. If True, discovery of remote elements occurs all at once at adapter startup. The default is True.

LogUnresolvedRemotes

A log control mechanism. An attempt is made to discover all InterConnection adapter (ICA) elements linked from Business Service Views. If True, logs warnings if it cannot discover ICA elements. If False, disables logging. The default is False.

LoginAccount

The remote Operations Center server user name. The default is admin.

LoginPassword

The user name’s password. The default is formula.

Script.onError

A script that executes if the adapter fails for any reason. For example, the script can print the reason for the failure as msg using log.info(msg).

Script.onInitialized

A script that executes when the adapter initializes. All of the Script.* properties are optional.

Script.onStarted

A script that executes when the adapter starts, either manually or automatically when the Operations Center server starts.

Script.onStopped

A script that executes after manually stopping the adapter.

ServerURL

The URL used to reach the Operations Center server, with /Reference appended.

For unsecured TCP/IP connection on UNIX, the default port is 8080. Assume the Operations Center server is on a host named global. The value for ServerURL is http://global:8080/Reference.

To establish a secure connection on UNIX using SSL, assuming the server accepts HTTPS connections on the default port 8443, the value for ServerURL is https://global:8443/Reference.

For Windows, use 80/443 instead of 8080/8443.

For more information on using unsecure and secure client/server communication, see the Operations Center 5.6 Security Management Guide and the Operations Center 5.6 Server Configuration Guide.

ShowRemote Operations

If True, uses all operations from the remote element. If False, uses only the element and alarm operations from the local Operations Center server. The default is True.
