Probable cause analysis in a scalable deployment  environment

In a scalable deployment environment, events are propagated from the local BMC TrueSight Infrastructure Management Servers to a central BMC TrueSight Infrastructure Management Server. If you want to perform probable cause analysis on all the events in the environment, probable cause analysis must be performed on the central BMC TrueSight Infrastructure Management Server.

The following figure illustrates how events are propagated in a scalable environment.

Limitations of probable cause analysis in a scalable environment

Data for the intelligent events on the local servers is not propagated to the master BMC TrueSight Infrastructure Management Server. This causes the propagated intelligent events to be treated as external events. This data loss causes probable cause analysis on the master BMC TrueSight Infrastructure Management Server to lose accuracy because no data correlation is available on the master BMC TrueSight Infrastructure Management Server.
