You can configure menus, tools, and prompts for the Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus desktop (event list and Conductor).
Each menu consists of a menu name and a list of menu items. Menu items are tools, separators, and submenus. Submenus are used within menus to group two or more menu items together.
Tools allow you to control alert management functions within Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus. Each tool has an associated SQL statement (called an internal effect), an executable (called an external effect), or both. You can associate tools with a class or classes of alert, and can group tools in tools menus.
A tool can include a prompt window or a pop-up menu for the user to enter information.
