Chapter 4 Sun Management Center 4-3
The monitor components present the collected data to you in a standard format. Sun
Management Center software provides both a standalone Java
TM
application and a
Web browser-based interface. The Java interface affords physical and logical views
of the system for highly-intuitable monitoring.
4.1.2 Other Sun Management Center Features
Sun Management Center software provides you with additional tools, which can
operate with management utilities made by other companies.
The tools are an informal tracking mechanism and the optional add-on, Hardware
Diagnostics Suite.
4.1.2.1 Informal Tracking
Sun Management Center agent software must be loaded on any system you want to
monitor. However, the product lets you informally track a supported platform even
when the agent software has not been installed on it. In this case, you do not have
full monitoring capability, but you can add the system to your browser, have Sun
Management Center periodically check whether it is up and running, and notify you
if it goes out of commission.
4.1.2.2 Hardware Diagnostic Suite
The Hardware Diagnostic Suite is a package which you can purchase as an add-on to
Sun Management Center. The suite lets you exercise a system while it is still up and
running in a production environment. See
Section 4.2, “Hardware Diagnostic Suite”
on page 4-4 for more information.
4.1.2.3 Interoperability—Third-Party Monitoring Tools
If you administer a heterogeneous network and use a third-party network-based
system monitoring or management tool, you may be able to take advantage of Sun
Management Center software’s support for Tivoli Enterprise Console, BMC Patrol,
and HP Openview.
