I have no idea what ITO is, and my background is AIX rather than Solaris....
But, look at the ENABLE command in the ADMIN GUIDE and ADMIN reference.

You can issue the ENABLE command to cause TSM to forward error messages real
time to a "receiver"  such as a Netview/Openview monitoring server via SNMP.

But there are other kinds of "receivers" as well.  Instead of forwarding the
error messages to the SNMP daemon, you can write them to a flat file, or
send them to a user exit program that you create, where you could do
anything you want with them.  I"ve never done the user exit myself, but I've
done used SNMP and the flat file method, and they work fine (at least from
an AIX TSM server).

You can choose to have all messages forwarded by severity (ERROR, SEVERE,
WARNING, INFORMATIONAL), or just select the ones you care about by number.

Hope that helps..

Subject: ITO alarms and TSM error messages


We would like to setup an error message monitoring process that sends alarms
to the Helpdesk for a select group of error messages, as they occur, in the
Solaris TSM Server Activity Log. We normally use ITO for this kind of thing.
How can we get a non-TSM error message monitor to "listen in" on the TSM
Server for messages to report -- as they occur? Any ideas or advice would be
most welcome!
Thanks, in advance.
