By default, the SolutionPack for Smarts uses the Smarts discovery associated with a Presentation Service Assurance Manager (SAM). When you configure the SolutionPack to link to the Presentation SAM server and to its Broker, the SolutionPack connects to the domain managers through the host:port/DM_name settings. Notifications from SAM display in the Notification List in the M&R User Interface. Device details from underlying Smarts domain managers connected to that Broker display in other M&R reports.

Alternatively, you may connect the SolutionPack for Smarts directly to the underlying Smarts domain managers.

Here are examples of the statistics collected by the SolutionPack for Smarts:
  • IP Availability Manager (AM)/Performance Manager (PM) (statistics on network devices and links)
  • Server Performance Manager (SPM)/Server Manager (ESM) (statistics on UNIX and Windows servers, physical and virtual servers and applications)
  • Application Connectivity Monitor (ACM) (statistics on transaction response time and availability
  • Service Assurance Manager (SAM) (historical view of SAM notifications)
  • SAM (real-time view of SAM notifications)
