Applications to monitor

Hi,

1.I want to monitor IBM MQ, Websphere,Tivoli Storage Manager (failed backup etc..) , Novell servers ( services,disk space and all) . Can I do it with application monitor?

2. Can I integrate Solarwinds with CA Helpdesk to open automatic tickets for critical events(2way integration)?

3. Can I integrate NPM with any third party event management system like Tivoli Omnibus,NetIQ etc..?

Your suggestions are appreciated...

Regards

Sebastian T Anthony

1) Assuming they're all services or processes that run on Windows or Linux, yes, you should be able to monitor them. Disk space is one of the standard resources that can be tracked on all nodes, provided SNMP is configured. You don't even need APM to monitor disk space.

2) Assuming CA Helpdesk has the capability of opening tickets by e-mail or through the use of an executable, yes, this would be possible as well.

3) I'm not exactly sure what you mean here. Could you elaborate?

Thanks for your reply.

My question is can we get more detaild data from MQ , TSM ,websphere through APM. Service and process monitoring is basic, I want to do application specific monitoring on these servers.

Event management system means different systems sent data to event server and it correlate the events and take necessary action. Tivoli TEC,Omnibus are well known event servers. Can we integrate NPM with these event servers?

Can you provide some solid examples of what you might be interested in doing? I'm thinking that Universal Device Pollers (UnDP aka custom pollers) might be able to accomplish this but I'm not sure.

In what way would you imagine integration working? NPM could forward traps or syslogs as necessary or are you referring to something a little more complex?
