operations management informer®
HP Operations Manager for Windows and UNIX have revolutionized the way that businesses manage and synchronize their heterogeneous IT operations.
However, the product lacks a flexible, web-based reporting interface.
Instead users must depend on the Operations Manager administrator to generate
reports, which are limited and often lacking because they only display
alert information in the history browser. Furthermore, this information
is archived after a few days and then certain attributes are subsequently
discarded.
Fortunately, Operations Management Informer is a self-service,
web-based reporting interface that allows clients to
retrieve historical alert information, based upon multiple attributes within
a HP Operations Manager alert, as far back as is needed (or as storage
or retention policies allow). This functionality is referred to as the
“Message History Query”. The overall reporting interface is customizable
and also comes with canned reports for: Message Trend by Severity, Trouble-Ticket
Information for Alerts, and High Duplicate Count.
Another bonus is that the product does not require HP
Operations Manager to be running in a data warehouse mode and is especially
convenient in a heavily-regulated environment where retrieval
of alerts is essential in incident and problem management
activities.
Created by the Dynamic Consulting Group and released
in June 2007, the Operations Management Informer user-interface is simple
and intuitive, ensuring a short learning curve for users and rapid integration
with your HP Operations Manager environment.
