BMC II for z/OS function
BMC AMI Ops Automation
ALERTs and events flow from
BMC AMI Ops Automation
to the server on which BMC Impact Manager (BMC IM) resides.
BMC II for z/OS translates BMC AMI Ops Automation ALERTs and events into Basic Recorder of Objects in C (BAROC) events.
BMC II for z/OS sends BAROC messages and events to the server on which BMC Impact Manager resides. BMC Impact Manager then processes the event information according to the rules in its Knowledge Base. BMC II for z/OS can filter ALERTs and events to decrease network traffic and to decrease the processing load for BMC Impact Manager.
BMC Impact Integration for z/OS creates a relationship between BMC AMI Ops Automation and BMC Impact Manager that can be:
- Many-to-one
- Many-to-many
- One-to-many
The following image illustrates the bidirectional relationship between the products.
Event flow from BMC AMI Ops Automation to an Impact Manager cell
When BMC AMI Ops Automation sends events to BMC Impact Manager, the BMC Proactive Performance Management (BPPM) cell processes the event information the same way it processes event information from other BMC Impact Manager sources.
