In particular, we delved deep into the modeling capabilities using the generic service based on system targets. This was followed by a detailed description of the various monitoring features present in a generic service based model. The chapter ended with a detailed discussion on the diagnostic features present in OEM Grid Control through root cause analysis.
The next chapter will cover modeling, monitoring, and managing the business services using service tests and beacons in OEM Grid Control. This chapter will primarily focus on the active monitoring features available....
