IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2
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.
Tivoli Business Service Manager can be used to install Netcool/OMNIbus ObjectServer and the Netcool/OMNIbus Probe for Tivoli EIF if you do not have an existing installation of these components. See the Tivoli Business Service Manager information center for details.
You can use any of the architecture scenarios described in this chapter for configuring forwarding of events from IBM Tivoli Monitoring to Netcool/OMNIbus when integrating with Tivoli Business Service Manager.
