IBM VisualAge Smalltalk Goodie:  Tivoli Connection
==================================================

Description

The Tivoli Connection feature supplies the components for enabling development of VisualAge applications that are Tivoli management-ready:

* A set of parts that allows you to generate standard Tivoli events from your application
* An interface that sends your events to the Tivoli Enterprise Console

Supported Platforms

The Tivoli Connection feature works with VisualAge Smalltalk (VAST) v6.0 and later.  It should work with Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT, and Windows 2000.  It may work with Windows ME and Windows XP, but has not been tested on these platforms.


Installation Instructions

1. Unzip the distribution package file (okay, so youve probably already done that) into your VisualAge Smalltalk Client directory (for example, c:\vast600 or /opt/IBMvast/6.0).  Note that Your unzip program must honor (not flatten) the directory structure when it unzips the package. 
2. Make <vast-root>\goodies\TivoliConnection\setup your current directory.
3. Run the setup script (setup_w.bat) to copy files to their final location.
4. Start your VisualAge Smalltalk development image and setup the library tools to import all required maps by swiping and executing this expression: EtTools moveAllRequiredMapsToo: true.
5. import the 'Goodies - TivoliConnection' configuration map from <vast-root>\goodies\TivoliConnection\manager\tivoli.dat. 
6. Turn off the importing of all required maps by swiping and executing this expression: EtTools moveAllRequiredMapsToo: false.
7. Load (with required maps) the 'Goodies - TivoliConnection' configuration map.
