Extensions
TrueSight Middleware and Transaction Monitor (TMTM) Agent extensions, or extensions, are customized for the monitored applications and automatically discover and monitor their underlying objects. The extensions pass the collected data to the Agent, which in turn forwards it on to the TMTM Topic Service and then on to the Monitor Console.
Unless specifically noted, the TMTM extensions monitor only those versions supported by the manufacturer. To view a list of the supported platforms and technologies, see Supported middleware monitoring technologies for performance and availability and Supported application transaction tracing technologies for transaction monitoring.
The TMTM product provides the extensions listed in the following tables.
