Subject: RE: ITM w/ MOM

Has anyone implemented the MOM2005 Tivoli connector? When I tried t install it the install failed because I didn't have Framework 4.1 installed. We are at 4.1.1. Anyone else see this or have a solution?
Thanks,
Pete

Wow, I am so out of touch ... I haven't been to any tech conferences since Planet Tivoli '01 (or was it '02? ... it was in D.C. is all I remember). 
 
The only thing I can say is "IBM, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE replace 'ITM for Business Integration WebSphere MQ' with the Candle Agent for MQ product!"  We have had Candle here for years monitoring MQ (both mainframe & distributed environments), but IBM pitched a better price point to our bean counters a while back, so we purchased ITM for MQ ... and right smack dab in the middle of a very hateful implementation experience, IBM buys Candle!!!!!!!!!  Our MQ admins absolutely loathe ITM for MQ, and by comparison love Candle for MQ.  I'm just the implementer, I don't "own" the monitoring experience ... I'll be happy to implement any dang thing I can to meet the customer's needs, but I don't have purchasing decision powers around these here parts.  Grumble grumble grumble.

I recall them saying at the Technical Conference that the Framework was going to move towards a Websphere base.  So maybe they're migrating towards that Web Services model.  In addition there is the Candle acquisition to mull over - I know that the Candle Web Portal is going to be the main event console for them and will (mercifully, IMHO) replace the Web Health Console.  I suspect that Candle has a lot to offer in terms of usability; they always were a class act in the mainframe arena.

RE: [tme10] ITM

At the Planet Tivoli conference last fall, for the first time I
heard IBM folks publically discuss how the Framework is
a limiting factor to the kinds of things they want to do. You
might try to find some of the conference presentations to
gain some insight into where Tivoli is going.
 
The operative word seems to be: SOA

Tu chez... but I gotta say...the idea of IBM/Tivoli products being better outside of the framework makes ya' think and is kinda morbidly funny...

Exactely! The "point" in point solution at this site stands for 96+% (Windows) of the installed base. So it's a big point!

Tell me something, if Framework was such a good idea how come the products I'm evaluating right now (TWS and ITMTP)

never have and propably never will run under Tivoli Framework? And as a "consequence" both perform very well and are excellent positioned.

 

Infact I haven't seen one single product (apart from ITM) move to FW since I started in 1998, have you? When I started with Tivoli products they where considered "good enough". I'm not so sure that is the case right now.

 

To me it boils down to a focal point of alarm handling. Frameworks or point solution does'nt really matter as long as the stability and quality is in the right place.

Which clearly isn't the case with ITM today.

 

Time will tell if MOM 200? will replace ITM or not.

It sure will be an interesting journey.

Re: [tme10] ITM



Okay, I was gonna' let this ITM berating pass and die...but c'mon...  Both IBM and Microsoft are the respective kings of patches, LA fixes, and major product course corrections.


As for the posting about MOM...  MOM is a fantastic product...for monitoring Windows infrastructures.  In fact, I believe that it just won a best of breed award.  But the reality is that MOM is a Windows platform product.  It is a platform point solution that does it's tasks extraordinarily well with minimal effort (comparatively speaking).  There are and will be more integration for the product to do other things across platforms, but the following is unrealistic:


"
I really think all Enterprises will move to MOM 2005 in 1.5-2 years."

Tivoli is a framework.  Unicenter is a framework.  There are and will be more frameworks.  We live the life of implementers of frameworks.  We do things with frameworks that would be insane to attempt with a point solution.  However, some point solutions do things that would be ridiculous to do with a framework.  C'est la vie...


The technical impracticalities of requested/required monitoring and management solutions are such only as the respective tools force them to be.  So when it comes to the solutions that we must implement using our designated tools...there's effort, time, training...etc.

But in our area of technology...the facts, although interesting...are irrelevant.

I can't tell what the point of this statement is?

IBM manages the listserv and doesn't contribute much at all and they make a ton of money from us all.


BTW - How many companies sell services or products to shore shortcomings in Microsoft products?

Also, ITM is another reason why customers are turning to external
consultants/experts to code ResourceModels to get back functionality present
in DM.   Notice that 1 or 2 companies are dominating this list group.    I
do recognize that they are providing much valued input freely, but they are
also gaining much recognition.

Hi list,

is it possible to distribute an custom configurationfile together with a
Ressource Model Profile , like the Distribution Action in DM3.7.
