Integrating with Tivoli Monitoring

In an environment that includes both IBM® Tivoli® Monitoring and IBM Performance Management products, you can use these products together in several ways.

The following options are available to integrate with IBM Tivoli Monitoring:

• You can install the IBM Performance Management Hybrid Gateway to provide a consolidated view of managed systems from both domains within the Performance Management console. When Tivoli Monitoring agents are integrated with the Hybrid Gateway and monitor different resources, data from both agents is available in the Performance Management console. For more information about integrating agents, see Hybrid Gateway.
• You can configure Performance Management agents to send history data to Tivoli Data Warehouse in order to use Tivoli Monitoring historical reporting tools. For more information about Tivoli Data Warehouse, see Tivoli Data Warehouse for historical reporting.
• You can install Tivoli Monitoring and Performance Management agents on the same system. When agents coexist on the same computer, but not in the same directory, data from Performance Management agents is available in the Performance Management console and data from Tivoli Monitoring agents is available in the Tivoli Enterprise Portal. If coexisting agents are monitoring the same resources, certain limitations apply. For more information about agent coexistence, see Performance Management agent and Tivoli Monitoring agent coexistence.
