Preconditions
To adopt this solution you will need a connection between the mobile network and your
system. You can establish this connection in two ways: using an Internet connection
or using a wireless connection by attaching a GSM phone or GSM modem to your PC.
(Comparison: Internet based SMS connections
vs. GSM modem based (wireless) SMS connections). According to your decision, you will need
different preconditions.
Preconditions for Internet based connection
To establish the connection between your system and an SMS service provider via the Internet, you will need these devices:
Figure 1/a - Components of IP SMS connection
With this type of connection you will need an SMS service provider
who provides access to its services and ensures Internet based SMS services. (Browse some
mobile service providers:
SMPP SMS Service
providers). After you have decided which provider and which service is the most
appropriate for you, you need to sign a contract and you will receive connection
parameters from your provider. Once you got the necessary parameters you can setup
your Ozeki NG SMS Gateway software.
Preconditions for wireless (GSM modem) connection
With this type of connection all you need is a GSM modem or a GSM phone and you can join it easily to your PC with a data cable. The GSM device will be operated by your Ozeki NG SMS Gateway software and it will be able to handle SMS messaging wirelessly. You will need the following components to use this type of connection:

System overview
As HP Openview monitors the system it notices and reports all malfunctions and errors. This report is sent to a text file (e.g.: reports.txt) and it is stored there. Ozeki NG SMS Gateway reads that file and understands the report. This means that the SMS gateway is not in direct connection with HP Openview but communicates through the report text file. After it understands the report Ozeki NG SMS Gateway translates it into an SMS text message and sends it out. Through a GSM modem or IP SMS connection the messages are transferred to the SMSC (SMS center). Finally the SMSC forwards it directly to the mobile user. Ozeki's superior performance ensures the procedure's security and velocity and thus creates a perfect SMS sending service for HP Openview (Figure 2).

Configuration guide HP Openview SMS alert solution
Step 1 - Configuring HP Openview
First, you need to run HP Operations Manager Console and extend "Policy Management" view and then "Policy Groups" view, as well. After this, right click on "Policy Groups" submenu and select "New" menu and here click on "Policy Group" (Figure 3).

In "Command" line type the follows:
cmd /c echo +36301234567 Alert! An error Occurred on <$MSG_NODE_NAME>. Description: <$MSG_TEXT>. > C:\sms\smsout\smsout.txt |
This command creates an "smsout" library on drive C in which the smsout.txt file will contain the following message:
+36301234567 Alert! An error Occurred on <$MSG_NODE_NAME>. Description: <$MSG_TEXT>. |
The number "+36301234567" is the recipient's telephone number,
<$MSG_NODE_NAME> means the monitored computer's name,
<$MSG_TEXT> will be the alert's description.
<$MSG_NODE_NAME> and <$MSG_TEXT> is replaceable for any of the variables described in this Policy variables file.
In "Node" field you need to provide the application on which the command will run. By default it is the monitored computer (Figure 10).
![]() |
Figure 10 - Automatic command
If you click on "OK" the created automatic command will appear in a window. In this window, click on "OK", as well (Figure 11).
