-snip-

This integration will send IBM Tivoli Monitoring Situation Events to Netcool/Impact for event enrichment, advanced data analysis and correlation, and for notifications and escalations.

The IBM Tivoli Monitoring Situation Events are sent to Netcool/Impact via Web Services. Upon reception of the event Netcool/Impact will run one or more Netcool/Impact policies. These policies make use of Netcool/Impacts wide array of Data Source Adapters and Netcool/Impact Policy Language to perform event enrichment, advanced data analysis, and to perform notifications and escalations.

After the policy is finished, Netcool/Impact can write the results back to the IBM Tivoli Monitoring Universal Message Console where the results can be viewed by support staff.
