IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2
Scenarios tested
For clustering purposes, Tivoli Monitoring is divided into three primary components: Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server (monitoring server), Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server (portal server), and Tivoli Data Warehouse. The monitoring server component is the hub Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server. The portal server component includes the Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server and Portal Server database. The Tivoli Data Warehouse component consists of the Data Warehouse database, Warehouse Proxy Agent, and Summarization and Pruning Agent. As the DB2 agent can be used for the Portal Server database, consider adding support for it.
Because of the variety of configurations that are available with Tivoli Monitoring and Tivoli System Automation for Multiplatforms, all combinations are not tested.
The information provided in this document has been tested and updated with Tivoli System Automation for Multiplatforms version 3.1.0.0 for IBM Tivoli Monitoring V6.2.2.
