Integrating with OMEGAMON

You can view data and events for your OMEGAMON application components in the Cloud APM console by purchasing the z Systems® Extension Pack and using the Hybrid Gateway to connect one or more deployed OMEGAMON agents to Cloud APM.

Before you begin

  • To use the z Systems Extension Pack, you must have either the IBM® Cloud Application Performance Management, Advanced or IBM Cloud Application Performance Management, Base offering.
  • One or more licensed OMEGAMON agents must be running on z Systems LPARS that are being monitored.
  • The OMEGAMON agents are connected to the IBM Tivoli® Monitoring infrastructure.

For a list of OMEGAMON agents that you can display in the Cloud APM console, see the Getting started topic for your release in the IBM OMEGAMON for Application Performance Management topic collection on IBM Knowledge Center.
