TOOLS INTEGRATING YOUR MICROSOFT AND BMC OPS. ENVIRONMENTS
The Integration of BMC® Performance Manager to
Microsoft's MOM 2000 OR MOM 2005
OR System Center Operations Manager (SCOM2007) gives
organizations unprecedented visibility and management of their IT
infrastructure by viewing the Microsoft and Unix/Linux/Other operating
systems in the same view.
With the integration, organizations
will now be capable of forwarding MOM/SCOM events through to BMC
Performance Manager
enabling joint BMC Software and Microsoft customers to better manage
and understand how MOM/SCOM events affect the business.

Datasheet
KEY FUNCTIONALITY OF THE
INTEGRATION MODULE
The Integration communicates with MOM/SCOM
and BMC Performance Manager
in the following way:
- Retrieves new and updated events
from MOM or SCOM 2007
- Sends selected MOM/SCOM events to
the Performance Manager
Agent
- Events can be viewed and managed
by the Performance Manager
Console
- Receives updated events from the
Performance Manager
Agent
- Forwards updated events to MOM/SCOM
- Integrates with BMC's PEM
via BPM

INTEGRATION
FEATURES
-
The features offered by MOM/SCOM to BPM Integration are determined
by the supporting technologies:
Microsoft
System Center Operations Manager® (SCOM 2007/MOM 2007):
MOM/SCOM Administration Console provides tools to develop and
customize the Management Pack.
- Microsoft
Connector Framework (MCF): MCF provides external programs
read/write access to MOM/SCOM events.
- BMC
Performance Manager®: BPM Agent provides the capability
to store, manage and propagate events. BMC Performance Manager
Console OR BMC PEM are its user interfaces.
- BMC
PATROL API: The public API is the primary way for 3rd-party
systems to communicate with BMC
Performance Manager
Agent.
The MOM/SCOM to BPM Integration has
been developed using Windows Managed C++ to take advantage of .NET
technology and BMC
Performance Manager API.
Bi-directional synchronization
Integration provides Bi-directional synchronization of MOM/SCOM-originated
events between MOM/SCOM and BMC
Performance Manager. MOM/SCOM events
will be periodically polled by the Integration and sent to a BMC
Performance Manager Agent. Event updates
from the BMC
Performance Manager Agent will be event-driven.
Customizable event filter and translation mapping
Integration provides customizable configuration files for the user
to modify the event filter. Only selected SCOM/MOM events that pass
the event filter will be forwarded to BMC
Performance Manager. Integration provides
customizable configuration files for the user to modify the translation
mapping between SCOM/MOM event attributes and BMC
Performance Manager event attributes.
Secure communication
Integration provides secured communication between the integration
and BMC
Performance Manager and between the
Integration and MOM/SCOM. By using the MCF Web service, the Integration
can communicate across firewalls.
High performance and scalability
Integration can have multiple instances running on the same hosts.
By using the BMC
Performance Manager API, the Integration
is very efficient and accommodates large volumes of data. The Integration
is scalable since each MOM/SCOM instance can be configured to communicate
with a dedicated BMC
Performance Manager Agent.
Patrol Agent Fail-over/Fail-back
Since the BMC
Performance Manager Agent is the receiving
end of new MOM/SCOM events, Fail-over/Fail-back is implemented.
The primary BMC
Performance Manager Agent and fail-over
Agents can be specified in the configuration file.
Heartbeat/Automatic retry
Integration will provide reliable communication with notifications
to BMC
Performance Manager and MOM/SCOM when
the communication channel is dropped and automatic communication
retry.
