BMC PATROL for OpenShift 24.2

A Knowledge Module (KM) or a monitoring solution is a set of files from which a PATROL Agent receives information about resources running on a monitored computer. A KM file can contain the actual instructions for monitoring objects or simply a list of KMs to load. KMs are deployed to PATROL Agents. These KMs are located in the Infrastructure Management–PATROL Repository (Repository).

PATROL for OpenShift lets you monitor and manage the availability and performance of your OpenShift environment. It issues visual warnings and alarms when thresholds are exceeded, allowing easy identification of problem areas.
