BPPM Compatibility Enhancements
september 13, 2011- Status: ongoing development
Sentry Software is updating all of its KMs to leverage the "Instance-to-Device mapping" feature available in the versions 8.6.02 and higher of BMC ProactiveNet Performance Management. An instance of class of a KM PATROL will now automatically create a device in BMC ProactiveNet. Our developers are putting all their efforts into this project to make sure the remote monitoring capabilities of our products are leveraged at their best.
Support for Instance-to-Device mapping will be added in the next versions of Sentry Software's hardware and storage KMs (planned for mid-November). We're evaluating whether we will release patches for the current versions.
