BMC has a product "MAINVIEW for Linux - Servers" which does monitoring, taking into account the hypervisor. On the VM side, it will use IBM's monitor or Velocity's monitor.
We also have a deployment product with a cloning tool, "Deployment Manager for Linux". Just FYI. I'm not in the marketing side of things, so I don't know which other BMC products that may impact admin have been ported to Linux. (Doesn't sound like you're asking for something like Control-SA.) We have like fifty or so, I believe, that have been "Linux enabled". -- R; ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
