Integrating with IBM® Tivoli® Monitoring
HCL Workload Automation integrates with IBM Tivoli Monitoring through the installation of a customizable agent, the IBM Tivoli Monitoring agent that collects and distributes data to the Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server.
You can integrate HCL Workload Automation with IBM Tivoli Monitoring using data providers that are the interfaces of the IBM Tivoli Monitoring agent. They enable the collection of data from data sources, client programs, URLs, scripts, relation tables, or SNMP agents and the transfer of the collected data to the custom IBM Tivoli Monitoring agent, an agent that monitors any collected data.
The IBM Tivoli Monitoring agent uses two different data providers to integrate with HCL Workload Automation:
- The script data provider collects the HCL Workload Automation data by running a script at regular intervals and parsing the script output to look for errors, anomalies, and threshold conditions. For details about this integration, see Integrating with IBM Tivoli Monitoring using a script data source.
- The file data provider monitors data in a sequential text file. For details about this integration, see Integrating with Tivoli Enterprise Portal using the agent log file data source.
