Overview

IBM Tivoli Enterprise(TM) Console is a powerful, rules-based event management application that performs root cause analysis and correlation, and also integrates network, systems, database, and application management.

IBM Tivoli Enterprise Console®:

o Offers a centralized, global view of your computing enterprise while helping to ensure the high availability of your application and computing resources.

o Can collect, process, and automatically respond to common management events, such as a database server that is not responding, a lost network connection, or completion of a batch process.

o Can act as a central collection point for alarms and events from a variety of sources, including those from other Tivoli® software applications, some third-party and custom applications, network management platforms, and relational database systems.

The following new enhancements in IBM Tivoli Enterprise Console V3.9 are designed to help provide better time to value and ease of use with the following:

o Out-of-the-box IBM best practices for better time to value - IBM Tivoli Enterprise Console can now perform root cause problem determination for WebSphere® MQ, DB2® and WebSphere Application Server e-business applications using best practices rules sets. Because the rules are based on predefined associations among these e-business applications, the rules can determine how the failure of one application affects another application identifying the root cause of the problem. IBM Tivoli Enterprise Console also has built in action, escalation and notification capability.

o Use of network management Auto-Discovery capabilities to extend root cause analysis and correlation for easier use - IBM Tivoli Enterprise Console now automatically discovers network relationships and tightly integrates network and systems management. It identifies and remembers key business system resources, and probes for databases, Web services, and other application components. It locates ITM and servers, and evaluates distributed application relationships. It automatically applies best practice rules to these applications.

o Increased productivity with Web-based console - IBM Tivoli Enterprise Console includes a new, Web-based Operators Console for event viewing. This new feature allows secure remote access, comprehensive event management, and requires no local installation or code maintenance.
