Does OMi require ECS (event correlation services) to be built out?
No. As a general rule it’s a good idea to ‘refine’ the event stream that is processed by the OM server and passed to OMi. There is absolutely no point in passing lots of noise to OMi – stuff that we know is noise – so we would recommend making good use of all of the traditional event consolidation and filtering technologies in OM. Time and count based correlation on agents, de-duplication etc. ECS – Event Correlation Services – can also be used to further refine the event stream as it arrives at an OMU server but it is not a requirement for OMi. Any issues or challenges to be utilize OMi in duplicated IP addresses environment for company like MSP (managed service providers)? This should not be an issue for event processing providing the intermediate OM server(s) and network infrastructure are configured to handle the duplicate IP infrastructure. Does OMi take into consideration HA (high availability) configurations such that it can identify business degradation as opposed to an outage?
