Add device roles

After you organize your points into the monitored device list, you can assign a role to your device. Roles are packaged in .pkg files which store a tree node image which you can place in your navigation tree, as well as a display transformation file, which is used with the IT Overview ProcessBook Add-In.

The IT Organizer tool will install the following packages by default:

• Cisco CallManager 4.pkg

• Cisco PIX.pkg

• Cisco TFTP 3.4 Windows.pkg

• Cisco Generic IOS Pre 12.0(3)T.pkg

• Cisco Generic IOS.pkg

• Microsoft Exchange 5-5.pkg

• Microsoft Exchange 2000,2003.pkg

• Microsoft IIS 5.pkg

• Microsoft IIS 6.pkg

• Sun Solaris 8.pkg

• Network Interface (SNMP mib-2).pkg

• PI Interface Performance.pkg

• PI Server 3.4.pkg

• Microsoft SQL Server 2000.pkg

1. Click Setup and select Packages and Images.

2. In the Content Manager, select the MonitoringPackages tab.

3. To import a role package, click Import Package, and load the desired .pkg file. This package file is stored on the configuration node of the server, so any users that choose this configuration node can see the roles.
