nGenius Performance Manager and nGenius K2 Integration with HP Operations Manager
All NetScout Solution alarms provide a detailed description and an embedded URL within the HP Operations Manager alert that launches a context-sensitive view into the alarm originator – either nGenius Performance Manager or nGenius K2. The context-sensitive URL creates a fluid pathway with which to focus and guide further analysis and troubleshooting, thereby reducing mean-time-to-resolution. In addition, nGenius Performance Manager and nGenius K2 can be launched directly from the HP Operations Manager console and various alarm browsers for simplified workflow.
Specific NetScout Solution alarm types that can be viewed within HP Operations Manager include:
- Intelligent alarms from nGenius K2, which provide early notification of pending network problems, detailing the behavioral irregularities in application and link utilization, application response time or VoIP quality.
- Power alarms from nGenius Probes and nGenius InfiniStreams, which alert on application response time, availability and link utilization that has risen or fallen beyond pre-defined levels, providing a detailed description of the applications and conversations active during the event.
- Standard threshold performance alerts from nGenius Performance Manager indicate that utilization or errors have gone above or below pre-set levels.
Combining the NetScout Solution’s expertise in network and application performance with HP Operations Manager’s industry-leading fault management gives you the best of both worlds. The HP-certified integration creates a seamless workflow between products, from a view of fault and performance alarms in OpenView all the way through contextual, deep dive troubleshooting using application statistics and packet analysis in nGenius. This single pane of glass troubleshooting speeds problem identification and improves network operators’ mean time to repair (MTTR).
