Overview of CMF MONITOR

CMF MONITOR is a performance monitoring, statistics gathering, and reporting system developed and maintained by BMC Software.

Statistics gathered by CMF MONITOR can be compiled and presented either in batch reports or through windowed online displays.

Other BMC Software products use the Comprehensive Management Facility (CMF) as a platform for collecting and reporting system performance information. BMC Software has developed a complete system of products based on CMF that manage and evaluate the demands on computer center resources and throughout an entire computing enterprise.

By using products that comply with the CMF architecture, data center managers can better control system performance, quickly respond to increased computer service needs, and plan for new capacity to meet service level objectives for projected corporate growth.

This section presents an overview of CMF MONITOR components, describes the integration with other BMC Software products and the MainView architecture, and compares CMF and RMF.
