I’ve heard some pretty cool stuff can be done with this product. Haven’t had the chance to play with it yet, but it sounds like it’s the “swiss army knife” tool much like Netcool/Impact is.
Creating EIF events with Tivoli Directory Integrator for Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus and Tivoli Enterprise Console Redpaper draft available here.
—snip—
This Redpaper describes an integration solution developed for IBM Tivoli Directory Integrator’s with IBM’s event management offering products IBM Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus and IBM Tivoli Enterprise Console.
This integration solution illustrates an integration scenario aimed towards improving Tivoli Directory Integrator’s integration capabilities and leveraging these capabilities with IBM’s event management offering products. Along with some examples we discuss the architecture behind this approach.
This document is divided into several sections. For those readers who are not familiar with the IBM products covered in this Redpaper, we provide a brief overview of Tivoli Directory Integrator, Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus, and Tivoli Enterprise Console. We then cover the integration with Netcool/OMNIbus and describe an architectural overview, and the implementation, installation and configuration for Tivoli Directory Integrator’s integration with Netcool/OMNIbus. Similarly, we discuss the integration with Tivoli Enterprise Console and describe an architectural overview, and the implementation, installation and configuration for Tivoli Directory Integrator’s integration with the Tivoli Enterprise Console. We discuss further details about the EIF EventSender component because it represents a key component developed as part of this Redpaper integration. Finally, the Miscellaneous section documents the files shipped along with this Redpaper and links to various official documentation.
