Hello World! :) I have had an issue the other days about using the new ILMT 9.x (IBM License Metric Tool) in parallel with IEM for SUA 9.x (IBM Endpoint Manager for Software Use Analysis). Even raised an APAR for it, APAR IV59595, raised to clarify this and add the details in the IEM for SUA's InfoCenter.

Session Relevance, Analyses results and the Rest API
Recently I needed to pull specific analysis results from my deployment via the REST API. The only way to do this is using the /api/query ( http://bigfix.me/restapi/?id=306 ). This meant that I needed to figure out a session relevance statement to do this and quickly. Since I’m not a native “session relevance speaker”, I looked at my options. One was to research, research, and more research using very valuable public resources like the Inspectors Guide ( http://support.bigfix.com/inspectors/Fixlet%20Objects_Any.html ),... [More]

Travel Time = Infrastructure Quality
Have you ever wanted to measure the quality of your infrastructure? Perhaps you'd like to know the time it takes for your endpoints to respond to questions and for the data to make it into the database? Well, now you can. One of our engineers, Aram, has come up with a simple SQL statement to provide what we are calling "Travel Time". Travel Time is the average time it takes for all of your endpoints to answer a question, in this case "Last Report Time", and insert that answer into the database. Using this value can... [More]
