BMC Impact Integration for HP OpenView Network Node Manager

 

Business Challenge

Network management is critical to maintaining the health of all IT services, but managing network problems without service impact perspective creates inefficiencies in applying staff resources and achieving greater IT competitive advantage. Leveraging HP OpenView Network Node Manager (NNM) with Business Service Management (BSM) solutions delivers the business priority of a problem and expands NNM value, but this needs to be achieved without disrupting staff workflows and business processes.

Business Need

  • Add real-time service impact perspective to NNM events.
  • Leverage, enhance, and protect the existing NNM investment without disruption.
  • Use a supported solution that installs easily, performs well, and maintains synchronized status.

Our Solution

BMC Impact Integration for HP OpenView Network Node Manager (BiiNNM) integrates BMC Service Impact Manager (BMC SIM) or BMC Event Manager (BMC EM) with NNM events. Integration with BMC SIM extends NNM events into real-time service impact management and gives staff the ability to manage network problems from a business service perspective and see root cause. Integration with BMC EM allows NNM events to be enriched and processed into more valuable IT information that can be shared across the IT organization.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Improves value of existing BMC SIM or BMC EM and NNM investments through a rich bi-directional integration.
  • Ensures the reliable sharing of events through encryption and buffering.
  • Increases productivity through the application of sophisticated event manipulation and processing policies that does not require programming.
  • Supports customized integration through a graphical configuration utility.
  • Allows NNM customers to step toward BSM enablement with BMC SIM integration.
  • Saves staff time by automating event sharing and filtering
  • Keeps staff current and coordinated by synchronizing changes to events.
