BMC ProactiveNet database
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
