BMC ProactiveNet supports the following databases:
- Sybase ASA database: This is the default, embedded database provided as part of the BMC ProactiveNet Server installation. You do not need a separate license to install or operate the Sybase ASA database.
- Oracle database: If desired, you can use an Oracle database instead of the default Sybase ASA database. You must have a dedicated Oracle database instance for BMC ProactiveNet. You must also have Oracle installed with a valid license on a machine that does not have the BMC ProactiveNet Server installed. For information about setting up the Oracle database and Real Application Clusters (RAC) to work with BMC ProactiveNet, see Managing the Oracle server.
The BMC ProactiveNet Database acts as a central repository for all the monitor configuration and statistical data in the BMC ProactiveNet Server, including the following:
- Configuration information such as users, devices, BMC PATROL Agents, and monitor solutions.
- Service-level objects (SLOs) and report data.
- Performance data such as raw performance data and event information.
- Analyzed and processed data, such as rate and baseline data
