Configuring after installation
You configure the BMC ProactiveNet Web Transactions Monitoring solution when you create a policy. A policy is a template that contains a set of configuration actions to perform on the PATROL Agent. A policy can be assigned to one or more PATROL Agents by using a unique tag, and a PATROL Agent can be assigned one or more policies with different precedence.
A policy contains the following major elements, each corresponding to a specific tab in Central Monitoring Administration console:
- Name, Central Monitoring Administration tag and priority. See Configuring general settings.
- Web Transactions solution. See Configuring monitoring settings.
- Alarm threshold configuration. See Configuring threshold settings.
- Actions to be performed on the BMC ProactiveNet Performance Manager server when the policy is active. See Configuring server-side settings.
If you did not add the Central Monitoring Administration tag to your PATROL Agents during the solution installation, you must manually assign the tag after you have configured the policy. For details, see Adding-Central-Monitoring-Administration-tags.
