IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2
Configure for high availability and disaster recovery
Among the most important considerations in setting up the Tivoli Monitoring environment is ensuring high availability of the product components and being able to recover quickly from failures.
There are multiple components to consider when discussing high availability. Ensuring high availability involves achieving redundancy for every Monitoring component. Disaster recovery means being able to recover from a major outage such as a data center going offline or losing its WAN link. For information about each of the Tivoli Monitoring components as well as a strategy for achieving the desired level of high availability and disaster recovery, see the IBM Tivoli Monitoring High Availability Guide for Distributed Systems.
