Creating Custom Monitors for Tivoli Distributed Monitoring, SG24-5211-00   Abstract In this redbook we describe how to create custom monitors for Tivoli Distributed Monitoring, Tivoli's application for monitoring resource availability in the enterprise. We explain the different approaches you can employ in creating your own monitors and also show specific examples for custom monitors that we create to extend the reach of Tivoli Distributed Monitoring. We also give a preview of the newest features added in Tivoli Distributed Monitoring 3.6, in particular support of the Lightweight Client Framework (LCF). This redbook will help you position Tivoli Distributed Monitoring and TME 10 as applications for enterprise availability management and enterprise systems management. Numerous practical examples are used to illustrate how to use Tivoli Distributed Monitoring in an effective way and how to create your own monitors. We show how to create monitors for networks, networking hardware, the Web, VM, DB2 and a number of other components and employ different techniques of creating monitors in these examples. All scenarios in this redbook are documented in a way that service providers can use the examples as a base for client implementations.
