Thank you very much David and Keith! the tunnel works based on your suggestions.
only 1 more question as the alarms are successfully forwarded from the "client" hub A to the server hub B, but the alarm_close or any update is not synchronized between them.
so for example, if i open a test alarm on the client hub (and i can see that alarm on the server hub as well), and after that i acknowledge it on the client hub, no update comes to the server hub, so the alarm is still open although it should be closed.
i tried different subjects (* or alarm,alarm2,alarm_close,alarm_update) defined on the attach queue on the client server, but wasnt able to get the wanted result.
usecase 2: what if i want to close(acknowledge) the alarm coming from client hub on the server hub? do i have to create an attach queue on the server hub and a get queue on the client hub in this case? i tried that as well, but didnt work either.
could you please help with this problem as well?
thank you,
stefan

Note that tunnels and static hubs are mutually exclusive. If you use a tunnel (which is sounds like is the only way to make it work), don't create a static hub entry.

to move qos and alarm messages from one UIM domain to another, you must setup a tunnel to connect the two domains.

In the past--longer ago than I'd care to admit--I managed to get a hub in one domain to connect to a queue on a hub in another domain. I'm not super confident this would still work; it is quite possible that security or other changes in the hub code may interfere with such a setup. I don't remember all of the details, but I don't think it was terribly hard to do. The two hubs need to know about each other, which involves configuring an entry under Static Hubs (in the Name Services tab) on one hub with the details of the other hub. Then they should be able to talk, and in theory you could setup a get queue on one hub with the nimaddress of the other hub.
If this doesn't work, snmpgtw is probably not a bad option. I think you would lose some of the alarm details by sending them via SNMP, but that may be just fine, depending on your use case.

hi,
what's the best approach to forward alarms from 1 UIM server (20.3.2) to another UIM server (20.3.2) in different environment.
is it snmpgtw? or is there any other better default integration possibility?
the environments should stay separated so configuring the UIM as secondary hub is not possible in this case.
thank you,
stefan
