To enable infrastructure monitoring, you configure the BMC TrueSight Infrastructure Management infrastructure components and configure monitoring in the Central Monitoring Administration interface. The configuration discussed in this section is focused on configuration related to data collection, monitoring, and event management. Monitoring configuration includes deploying and setting up BMC PATROL Agents and defining monitoring policies to establish criteria for how the managed technology is monitored, such as the following:
- Knowledge Modules that are loaded in the PATROL Agents for monitoring.
- Data collection and event propagation filtering
- Data collection frequencies
- Thresholds
After you configure the Infrastructure Management components, consult the following topics for instructions and best practices on how to configure monitoring for your IT infrastructure.
- Navigating the Central Monitoring Administration interface
