Network Node Manager i (NNMi)
NNMi's data collectors and Smart Plug-In add-on modules (iSPIs) provide discovery and monitoring of your physical and virtual network infrastructure, enabling fault, availability, performance, and advanced network services management. As part of the BSM solution, NNMi integrates with the BSM environment, acting as a data source for BSM for events and topology from the BSM applications.
The integration provides the following:
- Display NNMi events in the Event Browser in Operations Management.
- Corresponding out-of-the-box health indicators for NNMi events; the health indicators affect the status of the Network CIs in applications such as Service Health and Service Level Management. The integration also provides the relevant out-of-the-box KPIs for Network CIs.
- Populate the RTSM with the NNMi topology. BSM stores each device in the NNMi topology as a CI.
- Drill down from various EUM reports, MyBSM, and other locations to NNMi, where you can display trace route information between the client and the destination machine, to gain visibility into network components that may be the root cause of problems.
- Connect to the NNMi Management server and further analyze incoming events in NNMi.
