BMC Event Adapters requirements

Support for third-party products

To receive full support for a BMC product, you must have such product installed in a supported environment, as specified in the BMC product documentation. If a third-party vendor cancels support for one of its products (such as an operating system or subsystem), and that third-party product integrates or interacts with the BMC product you have licensed, you must upgrade to a supported version of that third-party product before BMC Customer Support can provide you with support for the affected BMC product. For further information, seeBMC's product support policy.

Perl requirements for BMC Event Adapter

The Integration Service installation script installs and starts the BMC Event Adapter. However, the installation script does not install Perl, which is required by the BMC Impact Event Adapters. You must separately install Perl 5.14 or later (32 bit) before you install the BMC Event Adapter on the system in which the Integration Service is installed.

To use the SNMP v3 adapter, you must install Perl 5.14 and the following additional Perl modules:

Operating system	Required Perl module
Microsoft Windows	Win32 API Note The Win32 API is also required for 64 bit Microsoft Windows.
Solaris Linux	P5NCI-0.31 Module-Build-0.3607 ExtUtils-CBuilder-0.2703 Test-Exception-0.29 Sub-Uplevel-0.22

Note

BMC products are certified for use on supported operating system versions. BMC does not explicitly test for OS patches/updates that are released after a BMC product is released.

BMC products should work fine with minor updates to these supported operating systems. For assistance, please contact BMC Customer Support.
