Netcool Operations Insight Integrations

IBM® Netcool® Operations Insight integrates infrastructure and operations management into a single coherent solution across business applications, virtualized servers, network devices and protocols, internet protocols, and security and storage devices.

With Netcool Operations Insight, you can receive and correlate operational data, like events from different sources, so your operators can detect the cause of failures. The faster that they know about the cause, the faster they can restore your systems and get you back in business. For a description of a scenario of integration between IBM Cloud Private and Netcool Operations Insight, see Learn how IBM Netcool Operations Insight provides operational efficiency and automation for IBM Cloud Private .

One of the standard mechanisms for Netcool Operations Insight to retrieve data is through the concept of probes. Probes retrieve events from a dedicated source, tweak the data so it aligns with the expected format for OMNIbus, set custom fields, and then forward the event to OMNIbus. Different sources collect all key information about the health of your applications.

You can download the Netcool Operations Insight probe charts, for use with IBM Cloud Private, from IBM Passport Advantage. Probe charts enable integration with systems using Logstash, Prometheus, HTTP (Webhook), SNMP, Syslogd, Kafka, and systems that support Tivoli Event Integration Facility (EIF). You can also download Netcool Operations Insight gateway charts from IBM Passport Advantage. Gateway charts enable the exchange of events between Netcool/OMNIbus and other systems like IBM Cloud Event Monitoring (CEM).
