IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2
Architecture scenarios
The scenarios in this section illustrate ways to forward situation events from one or more Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Servers to one or more Netcool/OMNIbus ObjectServers.
These scenarios use the bidirectional architecture, as described in the previous sections. If unidirectional architecture is applied to these scenarios, the IBM Tivoli Monitoring Situation Update Forwarder is removed and Netcool/OMNIbus does not send event status updates back to IBM Tivoli Monitoring.
- One hub Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server and one Netcool/OMNIbus ObjectServer
In this scenario, a single hub Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server is forwarding events to a single Netcool/OMNIbus ObjectServer.
- Multiple hub Tivoli Enterprise monitoring servers and one Netcool/OMNIbus ObjectServer
In this scenario, multiple hub Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Servers are forwarding events to a single Netcool/OMNIbus ObjectServer.
- One hub Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server and multiple Netcool/OMNIbus ObjectServers
In this scenario, one hub Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server is forwarding events to multiple Netcool/OMNIbus ObjectServers where each ObjectServer is configured for the Netcool/OMNIbus single-tier architecture.
- Multiple IBM Tivoli Monitoring agents and one Netcool/OMNIbus ObjectServer
In this scenario, IBM Tivoli Monitoring agents are configured to forward events directly to either the Netcool/OMNIbus Probe for Tivoli EIF or the Netcool/OMNIbus Probe for SNMP.
- Netcool/OMNIbus Multitiered and High-availability Architecture
The IBM Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus product can be deployed in a multitiered configuration to increase performance and event handling capacity.
- Integration with Tivoli Business Service Manager
In this scenario, IBM Tivoli Monitoring is configured to forward events to Netcool/OMNIbus. The Tivoli Business Service Manager Data Server analyzes the events in the Netcool/OMNIbus ObjectServer for matches against the incoming-status rules configured for service models. If the event's data matches a status rule, the status of the service model is changed accordingly.
