VMware Smart Assurance
NOTIF integration with
Adapter Platform
architecture

VMware Smart Assurance
NOTIF allows you to filter and forward events and perform other event management configuration through Event Configuration Information (ECI) objects. The event configuration features of
VMware Smart Assurance
NOTIF replace the trap_mgr.conf file in the
Adapter Platform
(OI) server shown in Overlay of Smarts NOTIF functions on Adapter Platform architecture, which performs the event filtering and determines which traps are forwarded for further processing. The
VMware Smart Assurance
NOTIF functions are overlaid on the standard
architecture as shown in Overlay of Smarts NOTIF functions on Adapter Platform architecture.
VMware Smart Assurance
NOTIF can be installed on an
Adapter Platform
server or a SAM server.
VMware Smart Assurance
NOTIF also allows you to process notifications through Notification Configuration Information (NCI) objects. The notification processing features of
VMware Smart Assurance
NOTIF replace the internal notification processing in the
Adapter Platform
or SAM server, depending on where
VMware Smart Assurance
NOTIF is installed, as shown in Overlay of Smarts NOTIF functions on Adapter Platform architecture.
VMware Smart Assurance NOTIF architecture on page 17 provides details on ECI and NCI objects.
