IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2
Prerequisite installation
Before you implement the Tivoli Data Warehouse solution, complete one or more hub installations, excluding the warehousing components.
Include the following components in each hub installation:
- The hub Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server
- (Optional) One or more remote monitoring servers
- The Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server, including the prerequisite RDBMS for the portal server database (DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows or Microsoft SQL Server)
- An Oracle database server on the computer where you will create the Tivoli Data Warehouse database. (The Tivoli Data Warehouse database can be shared in a multi-hub installation or dedicated to a single hub.)
- (Optional) A portal desktop client
- (Optional) Monitoring agents, and the application support for the monitoring agents
The term monitoring agent, as used here, refers to agents that collect data directly from managed systems, not the Warehouse Proxy Agent or Summarization and Pruning Agent.
- (Optional) The Tivoli Performance Analyzer
- (Optional) Language packs for all languages other than English
