    Hi All,

     

     UIM had many app probes (jvm,tomcat,etc) ,Server Monitoring(cdm,processes,etc) ,Virtualization probe(vmware,hyper-v),storage (hiachai,ibm,etc)and DB probes (mysql,oracle,mssql).Still all the infra layer is available why it doesn't have ofrelationship within this layer ?

     

    It must be capable of finding the root cause of application,server issues within physical and virtual server environments. 

     

    Assume that if a server A is down due to esx hardware issue or some datastore full issue ,still there is no view which gives the server A is connected to which ,esx->datastore->Storage Lun. We can't able to track down issues faster.

     

    Having  Spectrum,UIM,Netqos,ADA there is no relationship viewer between Computing ,Storage and Network layer . Drill down of issue is taking much time .Need a unified console where all can be centralized in a single view.

     

    Kindly share your suggestions too.

    CA SOI is suppose to solve the exact purpose of what you have stated . It was designed to act as a centralized console with connectors talking to different CA and non CA solutions and providing a unified view for RCA and correlation across different domains

     

    Did you explore CA SOI ?

    Hope SOI doesn't create automatic relation with vm->esx->datastaore->san interface ->LUN
