Tivoli Integration Pack for NetView (TIPN) is shipped with NetView 6.0
- there was no update with the NetView 7.1 release. TIPN, as shipped,
integrates with Inventory 3.6.2 and I believe there is a patch available
that includes integration with Inventory 4.0. TIPN gets you the sort
of information into Tivoli Inventory, that is available in the NetView
object database. Typically, that means stuff you can get from SNMP
MIB-2 so you will get a Description, but there is no standard MIB variable
for, say, serial number.
This was where TMNH was very good as it integrated with things like
CiscoWorks, that asked much more detailed MIB questions, but unfortunately
TMNH was withdrawn from marketing last year.
Cheers,

Hello, does
anyone have any experience on integrating Netview 7.1 with Tivoli Inventory
(3.6.2 or 4.0) on Framework 3.7? What
we would like is to store data likebrandmodeldescriptionserial
number...of
our network equipment in the Inventory database. I
have heard of Tivoli Manager for Network Hardware which looks ok for this
(it is also described in the NV 6.0 redbook) but this was for Framework
3.6 and NV6.0. Furthermore, the last version of TMNH that I know is 2.2
which was released 2 years ago!
