Guidelines for the BMC ProactiveNet Integration Service

Consider the following guidelines when using the BMC ProactiveNet Integration Service:

  •  A 64-bit Integration Service host machine with 2 CPUs and 2 GB RAM can scale up to 500 PATROL Agents.
Warning

Note

Do not try to exceed 250,000 monitor instances and 1,700,000 attributes on a single Integration Service computer. Additional CPU and memory does not help to scale beyond these values.

  • Allocate a separate Integration Service for each remote network.
  • A 64-bit Integration Service host with 4 CPUs and 8 GB RAM can scale up to 900 PATROL Agents.
  • Minimize the number of Integration Service that you use to collect data from BMC PATROL Agents.
  • Ensure that the BMC ProactiveNet Central and Child Servers have user access to the Integration Service computers.
  • Deploy an Integration Service on each network where BMC PATROL Agents are located, and distribute BMC PATROL Agents on the Integration Services so that the load on the service does not exceed the suggested values.
