Products documentation

• The Unified Infrastructure Manager plugin gives the possibility to the CA UIM’s “promonitor” probe to collect metrics, alarms and metadata
• Once active, this plugin will collect all generated alerts, metrics and metadata and store them waiting for the probe to collect them
• To limit memory usage the number of element temporally stored is limited

• Configure Redpeaks to activate CA UIM plugin:
  • This will make alerts and metrics available for collection by UIM
• CA UIM: Install and deploy promonitor probe.
  • It will connect to Redpeaks to collect available metrics and alarms
  • It will inject alarms and metrics in UIM's DB via the message bus.

• From the plugin menu, select type Unified Infrastructure Manager and create the plugin, this will open plugin configuration screen
• Fill the plugin settings form:
  • Enabled: To enable or disable the plugin
  • Name: The name of the plugin to display in the list of plugins
  • IP(s) allowed to collect: The IP(s) of the robot(s) with a promonitor probe installed that are allowed to collect data from Redpeaks
  • Max message queue size: The maximum number of alerts or metrics waiting in the output buffer. Used to limit the memory usage if events are created faster than consumed.

Note: If the promonitor probe is deployed on the same robot than sapbasis_agentil probe, the former configuration file will be automatically uploaded in Redpeaks and available in the Snapshots menu

• From the snapshot menu, upload sapbasis_agentil.json file like any regular snapshot file.
• Apply the uploaded configuration. This will replace any existing configuration

Note: This operation will not replace the current licences of Redpeaks
