Customizing the logo and "About" information in the BMC ProactiveNet  Operations and SLO Consoles

BMC ProactiveNet enables the administrator to change the ProactiveNet logo on the BMC ProactiveNet Operations and Service Level Objectives (SLO) consoles. You can replace the BMC ProactiveNet logo (shown in the following figure) on the top left of the navigation bar in the Operations Console and SLO Console with a customized logo file.

The new logo graphic should be in .gif format and the size should be 210 x 20 pixels. 
The information in the About link also can be changed to point to a company website or other location.
