There are several links on this web page that is pointing to the BPPM 9.5 online document web site. For example, the link to the following:
"For information about BMC ProactiveNet components and BMC PATROL Agent compatibility, see BMC ProactiveNet and BMC PATROL Agent compatibility."
is re-directing users to the "BMC ProactiveNet and BMC PATROL Agent compatibility Published" web page for BPPM 9.5. It does not contain any information about BPPM 9.6.
Please correct these links so they are re-directed to the correct web sites.
Thanks,
