OneVision
Introduction OneVision Network Management Solutions integrates the
applications required for the global management of multivendor
networks, systems, applications, and communications.
Types of
applications The OneVision family of applications includes:
■DEFINITY G3 Proxy Agent
■DEFINITY G3 Fault Management
Proxy Agent The Proxy Agent acts as an interpreter between a DEFINITY G3
PBX and Fault Management software.
The following table describes what Proxy Agents do:
Proxy Agents also provide administrative access for up to 15
DEFINITY G3 PBXs.
Stage Description
1 Receive information from DEFINITY G3 PBXs.
2 Translate the information into SNMP(Simple Network
Management Protocol).
3 Send the translated information to your network
management system (NMS) where it is available to Fault
Management.

System Overview
OneVision
Fault
Management Fault Management is a graphical user interface that allows you to manage your entire enterprise network from a single management
platform. It allows you to manage a DEFINITY G3 PBX as a node
on your network just as you would any other device on your
network.
Fault Management allows you to:
■Monitor the fault conditions of your DEFINITY G3 PBX
■Display reports about those fault conditions
■Sort the reports according to your business needs
■Create an enterprise-wide database of configuration errors
and alarms
Other
components For the OneVision applications to work properly, these components of your system also must be operational:
See also For more information about Fault Management and the Proxy
Agent, see the documents listed on page vi.
Component What it does
DEFINITY G3 PBX Moves information between
communication equipment
Network management
system (NMS) Makes DEFINITY G3 information
available to Fault Management

The Integration Software
The Integration Software
Introduction The integration software allows you to open Fault Management
from your network map and your Optivity screens.
Benefits of
integration Integrating Fault Management and Optivity provides the following benefits for your company:
■Network managers have a consistent approach for
managing enterprise networks
■The OpenView autodiscovery feature automatically
integrates Fault Management and Proxy Agents with your
NMS
■All users can use their current HPOpenView NMS
■Optivity users can launch Fault Management and telnet to
the Proxy Agent from Optivity screens

System Overview
Autodiscovery
Autodiscovery
Introduction OneVision autodiscovery completes the following tasks
automatically:
■Searches for DEFINITY G3 Proxy Agent and client objects
and adds the appropriate icons to the DEFINITY G3
network map
■Shows the relationship between each Proxy Agent and its
client DEFINITY G3 PBXs
■Updates the SNMP configuration database
■Updates the OpenView object database
Finding
Proxy
Agents
OneVision autodiscovery can find information about only those
Proxy Agents that are running. If an icon for a Proxy Agent does
not display on the network map, check with your system
administrator to determine if the Proxy Agent has been started
and if it is running.
Changing
client objects OneVision autodiscovery reads all client information from the Proxy Agent. Therefore, if you need to change the settings for a
client object, do so on the Proxy Agent’s Change Clients screen.
If you change the client without also changing the Proxy Agent,
autodiscovery will overwrite your change.
NOTE:
Do not administer a client on more than one Proxy Agent. If
you do, the network map will not show the true state of the
connectivity between the client and the Proxy Agent.

Autodiscovery
How to
move a
client to a
different
Proxy Agent
To move a client object from one Proxy Agent to another:
NOTE:
If you complete steps 3 and 4 first, the network map will be
incorrect until you complete steps 1 and 2.
See also For more information about the following topics, see your Proxy
Agent installation guide or Proxy Agent online user guide:
■Starting and stopping the Proxy Agent
■Change Clients screen
■Adding or deleting clients
Step Action
1 Telnet to the Proxy Agent that the client is currentlyassociated
with.
2 Stop the Proxy Agent, delete the client on the Change Clients
screen, and restart the Proxy Agent.
3 Telnet to the Proxy Agent that you want to move the client to.
4 Stop the Proxy Agent, add the client to the Change Clients
screen, and restart the Proxy Agent.
