Table 2. HP-UX Prerequisites
• The section titled "Limitations" has been removed.
• In the chapter titled LDAP Authentication, the following note was removed:
Zenoss recommends that you make sure that your LDAP server requires at least four successive failures to
lock an account. Due to authentication design, each login to Resource Manager goes through three different
Web pages. Each one of these pages requests a user authentication, which ends up making a single call to
the LDAP backend. Thus, if the user makes one mistake and the LDAP server locks the account on three
successive failures, the user's account will be locked even though he specified the password once.
• In the chapter titled Multi-Realm IP Networks, the following prerequisite was added:
Before setting up multi-realms, you must delete all Resource Manager networks. (These are automatically
recreated.)
• In the chapter titled Nexux7k, the following limitation has been added:
To model Cisco Nexus 7000 series switches with multiple enabled VDCs, the user name used to perform
modeling must be authorized to run the following command on the switch:
show running-config vdc-all
This command requires authenticating as a user with one of these user roles:
• network-admin
• network-operator
• vdc-admin
• vdc-operator
1.6.3. Zenoss Service Dynamics Impact and Event Management
In the chapter titled "Working with Impact," a new section was added.
1.6.3.1. Adding Context Information to Notifications
In addition to the context information available to notifications (see the section titled "Working with Notifications"
in Resource Manager Administration), Impact events populate a variable (esa) which has one variable (causes),
which is a list. Each list entry is an event, with these attributes:
• evt
• clearEvt
• eventSummary
• clearEventSummary
• urls
Another entry, impactChain, contains the chain of resources that Resource Manager uses to determine that
this event caused the service problem. The causes are listed in order of probability of root cause, from highest
to least.
To iterate over the list items in causes using TALES, you can use the tal:repeat clause. For example:
