Integration with Netcool/OMNIbus

How Network Manager can help OMNIbus users – it …

• Enhances productivity

– Event enrichment ensures staff has meaningful, contextual information at their fingertips

– Event correlation and root cause analysis focuses staff on network failures, not symptoms

• Improves efficiency by reducing the MTTR

– Topology maps help locate problems

– Includes problem diagnostic tools out-of-the-box

– Provides in-context launch to 3rd party OAM tools

• Improves network availability– Deliver against aggressive network availability SLAs through realtime monitoring

and analysis

Why buy more Tivoli…• Fast TTV with out-of-the-box integration• Increased operator efficiency: single sign-on, integrated portal, common reporting• Lower cost of ownership: common installer, shared security model, shared logging and

trace mechanism, IBM support assistant

Page 23: IBM® Tivoli ® Network Manager · PDF fileTHE PREMIER SERVICE MANAGEMENT EVENT February 8 - 12, 2009 | Las Vegas, Nevada IBM® Tivoli ® Network Manager Network Topology Management

22

Integration with TADDM/CCMDB

Tivoli Application Discovery and Dependency Manager

• Extend scope of discover to include additional network resources

• Launch into network topology views to view network alarms affecting application performance

Network Manager

• TADDM stores current network configuration – track network configuration over time

• Show configuration change history (Has a configuration change caused an outage ?)

Page 24: IBM® Tivoli ® Network Manager · PDF fileTHE PREMIER SERVICE MANAGEMENT EVENT February 8 - 12, 2009 | Las Vegas, Nevada IBM® Tivoli ® Network Manager Network Topology Management

23

Integration with TBSM

Automatically populate service models based on discovered network information

1. Import ITNM generated IDML book directly into TBSM

2. Discovered network resources appear in TBSM's Service Component Repository (SCR)

3. Configure services within TBSM using the resources from the SCR

Navigate from service affecting events to the network failure responsible for the service

degradation/failure

– Events in OMNIbus are enriched, correlated and prioritized with ITNM’s event enrichment,

active monitoring, and event correlation (RCA)

– TBSM maps those events to the resources / services

– Launch in context from the TBSM events and/or resources into ITNM

Page 25: IBM® Tivoli ® Network Manager · PDF fileTHE PREMIER SERVICE MANAGEMENT EVENT February 8 - 12, 2009 | Las Vegas, Nevada IBM® Tivoli ® Network Manager Network Topology Management

24

Integration with Netcool/Impact

• Enrich events with network topology information – Use SQL DSA to retrieve network configuration from Network

Manager’s discovered network topology. For example…

• Enrich link down events with information on the far end

• Enrich link down events with the links operational status

• Automate Network Manager to troubleshoot network failures or validate network configuration– Access to Network Manager function via HTTPGETs request to

the Network Manager’s servlet engine. For example…

• Maintenance window is completed - launch partial rediscovery automatically to validate network configuration changes

• An interface is maxing out causing performance degradation –when bandwidth utilization reaches a predefined threshold alert – then increase polling frequency to monitor more closely until the problem has been resolved.

Increase Operator Efficiency

• At-a-glance interface panel – panel showing connectivity between devices and interface details

• Links should be treated as first class objects and include state information and context sensitive tools

• Provide visualization of a path across the network (e.g. ATM PVC, MPLS LSP)

• Device structure browser: Support filtering and search

• Dashboards incorporating event, configuration and performance information

• Increased visibility of discovery/monitoring configuration and status

• Increased visibility of mis-configurations and tools to help resolve

• Associate monitoring definitions with network partitioned views …………..

• Triggered polling / polling chains

• Reports demonstrating ROI. For example…– Number of problems detected

– Number of events correlated

– Speed of discovery

Lower Cost of OwnershipSet specific polling policies

for the MPLS core

Network change and configuration

• Automation of labor-intensive configuration changes. For a medium-sized environment*:– It takes 80 person hours to update network operating system

images

– 45 hours to update access control lists in response to a virus

– 120 hours for audit/compliance reporting

• Decrease in Mean Time to Restoration (MTTR)– ~75% of outages are caused by change in the IT environment.

Average MTTR for IT service outages is conservatively estimated at 2.5 hours.

– The ability to know if a failing service had a recent change candramatically reduce the amount of time spent troubleshooting, and thus MTTR for critical business services

– Fewer failures to begin with because of better control of change

• Increased Security/Management of Risk– Ability to respond efficiently to attacks

– Ability to audit, maintain, and report on standard configurations is critical to standards compliance

– Replace proprietary RCA rules language

– Simplify event gateway to OMNIbus (speeds event enrichment)

– Support Service Affecting Events migration to network topology model

• Possible to define a service as a collection of resources spanning domains

Integrations

• CCMDB phase 2

– Extend to support more network technologies (e.g BGP, OSPF etc.)

– Provide granular updates (incremental updates as the network changes)

– Key for integrations to Tivoli and 3rd party applications

• Network Topology Model API for data access

• Support for Fibre Channel over Enhanced Ethernet

– Integration with IBM Director

– Additional device support

• Provide discovered network information to other IBM applications:

– Storage management: IBM Director

– Provide sensors for Tivoli Application Discovery and Dependency Manager (TADDM)

IBM Tivoli Network Manager’s Key Differentiators

• Accuracy– Every device analyzed individually, regardless of type

– Dynamic RCA based on network model – no configuration required

– End-to-end network connectivity right out to the desktop

• Scalability– Broad discovery support; proven scalable and accurate in service providers

– Multi-threaded discovery and monitoring for maximum performance

• Flexibility – In discovery: scheduled; always-on; partial re-discovery triggered by network

change

– In customization: support new devices on-the-fly; control what attributes are retrieved; add new event correlations; add in-context launch to 3rd party OAM tools

– Open access to the discovered network information

• Breadth of coverage– Unparalleled device, protocol and vendor support (leverages Netcool/OMNIbus

probe program)

– Rapid new device & version roll out engineering model

• Leverage The T Factor – Out of the box integration with Netcool/OMNIbus, Netcool/Impact, TADDM and

TBSM increasing operational efficiency and reducing total cost of ownership
