IBM Tivoli Monitoring Version 6.2 is a powerful monitoring product

from IBM, that is easily customizable and provides real-time and

historical data that enables you to quickly diagnose and solve issues

through the IBM Tivoli Enterprise Portal component. This common,

flexible, and easy-to-use browser interface helps users to quickly

isolate and resolve potential performance problems.

This IBM Redbooks publication presents a deployment guide for IBM

Tivoli Monitoring V6.2. We cover planning, installing, and

configuration of IBM Tivoli Monitoring V6.2 for small, medium, and

large environments. In addition, we provide some case studies,

such as IBM Tivoli Monitoring V5.x migration, event management

integration, and Agent Builder.

Agent Builder is a very powerful tool that you can use to develop

your own monitoring agents. In order to show you how this tool can

be used in a real life scenario, we have created a 30 minute video

that you can launch from the ITSO Web site.

We have also added an appendix that discusses IBM Tivoli

Monitoring sales engagement planning for Business Partners and

Solution Developers.

The target audience for this documentation is IT Specialists and

Business Partners who will be working on IBM Tivoli Monitoring

V6.2 implementations and proof of concepts.
