Integrating with TrueSight Operations Management to monitor events and services
TrueSight Operations Management is a software that enables you to monitor performance and availability of the infrastructure and applications that comprise your services, monitor events coming from the infrastructure devices, and monitor transactions from the applications that enable the services they deliver. As a tenant administrator, you use BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations to add, edit, and delete integrations with TrueSight Operations Management.
For conceptual information about BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations, see Integrating.
Event slot update
BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations gets data updates that come in from the third-party solutions. If the data is updated in the third-party solutions, the changes are applied in BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations also. For example, if data for an event is updated in a third-party solution, the changes are applied in BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations and event slots get overwritten in BMC Helix Operations Management.
Before you begin
Ensure that you have downloaded and installed the Connector. You must choose the Base Connector connector type while downloading the connector. Without the Connector, you cannot proceed with the integration.
Important
- Download the script on a docker-enabled Linux server.
- The TrueSight Operations Management host must be accessible from your docker-enabled Linux server.
