IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2
Supported configurations
The following clustering configurations are presented:
- Configuration A
- The hub monitoring server, portal server, and data warehouse (with the Summarization and Pruning Agent and Warehouse Proxy Agent) each have their own cluster.
- Configuration B
- Same as Configuration A, but without the Summarization and Pruning Agent and the Warehouse Proxy Agent in the data warehouse cluster.
- Configuration C
- The hub monitoring server, portal server, and data warehouse (with the Summarization and Pruning Agent and Warehouse Proxy Agent) are clustered on the same cluster.
The IBM Universal Database (DB2) is used as the database in all of the configuration tests. Other IBM Tivoli Monitoring-supported databases can also be clustered by following the specific database cluster setup procedures.
All the clustering configurations include at least one agent that directly reports to the hub. For simplicity, this configuration is not shown in the configuration diagrams that follow.
