ACM Domain Manager

ACM Domain Manager discovers and monitors applications.

•It receives topology from the Standard Probe.

•It receives monitoring results from the Standard tcpAction.

•It receives topology and notifications from Adapter Platform.

The ACM Domain Manager correlates this information and sends the root- cause and impact analysis as well as topological information to the SAM Global Manager.

To receive notifications and topology from the Adapter Platform, you must manually add the element to the ACM Domain Manager’s topology using the Domain Manager Administration Console.

See Adding Sources to the ACM Domain Manager on page 10 for instructions.

To transfer events and topology to the Global Manager, no changes are necessary for the ACM Domain Manager.

To use the Domain Manager Administration Console to add the Adapter Platform to the ACM Domain Manager’s topology, perform these steps. (If you already have a console open, make sure you are attached to the ACM Domain Manager and start with Step 3). The domains must be registered with the same broker at startup for this process to function properly.

1Open the Global Console using either the sm_gui command or the Start menu.

2Log on and attach to the ACM Domain Manager.

3From the console, select Configure > Domain Manager Administration Console.

4Select Topology > Add Source.
