A company has a stringent set of security requirements that must be adhered to. They have a number of machines in the DMZ that are required to be either monitored or become event acquisition targets. In addition to this, all traffic on their network must be encrypted. All VLAN’s are firewalled. All users must authenticate to LDAPS and in all instances, security is of paramount importance.
In this scenario, what is a primary requirement in the planning phase to ensure that LDAP can be used to authenticate users?

- B . The LDAP self-signed root certificate issued by the Certificate Authority (CA) must be obtained and added to the ObjectServer key database.
- C . The ObjectServer SSL certificate must be installed into the LDAP server repository.
- D . A self-signed root certificate must be generated by the IBM Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus Administrator and installed for LDAP over SSL communication.
When using the configuration files that are included with IBM Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus to create a collection layer ObjectServer and collection to aggregation gateway, how are events removed from the collection layer ObjectServer?
- A . A database trigger in the collection ObjectServer deletes the events based on the SELECT operations from the gateway.
- B . The gateway updates a custom event column after the event is sent to the aggregation layer ObjectServer, and a trigger removes the events based on the value of the column.
- C . A signal trigger in the collection ObjectServer deletes the events based on receipt of a signal from the aggregation layer ObjectServer.
- D . The gateway deletes the events after they are forwarded to the aggregation layer ObjectServer.
What is installed by the command, %NCHOME%onmibusbinnco_pad /INSTALL, on a Windows platform?

A company is planning to deploy IBM Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus (Netcool/OMNIbus) V8.1 in a multi-tiered environment with three pairs of Collection ObjectServers, one pair of Aggregation ObjectServers, and three Display ObjectServers. In addition to receiving events from IBM Tivoli Monitoring, they require integrations with other applications that will send events through SNMP traps, UNIX Syslog, and by connecting to a TCP/IP socket. They will automatically create tickets for events through IBM Tivoli Service Request Manager (TSRM) and require three months of historical event data for reporting purposes.
