BMC Discovery 11.x: Advanced Application Modeling (ASP)
BMC Discovery is a datacenter discovery solution that automatically discovers datacenter inventory, configuration and relationship data, and maps applications to the IT infrastructure. BMC Discovery establishes the foundation for improving IT processes and productivity by providing timely and actionable insight to make informed decisions in IT service management, asset management and infrastructure/operations management.
This course enables users to extend and maintain a BMC Discovery deployment beyond the initial baseline. It also enables users to model the complex custom software using the Start Anywhere Application Mapping (SAAM), Collaborative Application Mapping (CAM), and The Pattern Language (TPL) features. This course also covers creating custom patterns used in CMDB Synchronization.
IMPORTANT: Included in this course is the examination for BMC Accredited Administrator: BMC Discovery 11.x. Taking the exam and pursuing accreditation is optional, however, all students enrolled in the BMC Discovery 11.x: Advanced Application Modeling (ASP) course are automatically enrolled in the exam. You will have two attempts to pass the exam. No retakes will be offered. Those who pass will receive the title of BMC Accredited Administrator: BMC Discovery 11.x.
