This directory includes a lot of contributed files/alarms to help System
Administrators using PICA
Most of these alarms need the MLDBM Perl package
Admin Domain (admindomain)
==========================
Most of the alarms included use the concept of "admindomains". An admindomain
is a group of administratively related hosts. The idea is that within PICA
only hosts in the same admindomain will interact with each other.
For example, the NTP module generates a configuration where hosts belonging
to the ntpservers synchronize with each other, But you don't want servers
from client (or network) A synchronizing with servers from client B. The
answer is to define different admindomains for each client and include the
clients' hosts in that group.
This is done in a very simple way. Including all the hosts in a group
and defining the variable "admindomain" for that group:
hostgroup clientA {
members { host1, host2, host3 }
vars {
admindomain = 'clientA';
}
}
