Supported middleware monitoring technologies for performance and availability

The MainView Middleware Monitor product monitors only product versions supported by the manufacturer, unless specifically noted. For instance, if you experience problems using an unsupported version of IBM MQ, BMC requires that you upgrade to an IBM-supported version and duplicate the problem before contacting BMC Support. 

Agents and extensions are supported on the listed operating system versions whether they are on physical hardware or run virtually. If an issue exists only when run virtually, the customer may need to contact the vendor used for virtualization to determine how to resolve the issue.

The queue managers of an IBM MQ Appliance are monitored using the IBM MQ extension, qpmon, using remote (agentless) monitoring where qpmon uses an MQ Client connection to each IBM MQ Appliance queue manager remotely from another agent-supported platform. The supported IBM MQ Appliances are those with a queue manager version listed in the preceding table.
