Tools for OVO servers

Tools for OVO agents
Those tools are used to enhance the monitoring capabilities of the OVO agents.
For HPUX, Solaris, Linux and Windows agents:
opclogi: Much extended logfile encapsulator replacement. Also support TCP/IP, serial, pipe and other interfaces. Support messages on multiple lines and make sure alarms are never lost even when a log file is reset. Previous release is also available here.
See documentation for a list of all features available.
For HPUX agents:
- opcmsgraw: Send OVO messages directly to the message agent. This is used when it is necessary to submit messages with field that cannot usually be set with the opcmsg command (creation time, msgid, message type, etc). Mostly useful when messages should be resubmitted.
- ovoecsdbanno: Oracle and MySQL ECS annotate server. From an ECS circuit, do any SQL statement to gather data from an external database. Use this data to enhance the message flow.
- ovoecsloganno: Log ECS annotate server. From an ECS circuit, write to a log file any useful information.
For Windows agents:
- opcmsgx: An opcmsg command replacement for Windows where any combination of double-quote characters are supported.
- enumproc: Tool to monitor 16-bits Windows processes.
- fsallp: Tool to monitor disk space on Windows in percentages.
Other tools
The following tools are available on HPUX:
- getfiletime: Print all times associated to a file.
