Hi Bill, FWIW, I can tell you that Tivoli Management Framework is the software that allows you to manage and inventory machines on your network. You can inventory their hardware and software, you can install software, distribute and retrieve files, run programs on remote machines.... all that good stuff. I think you are right that the monitoring component relies on the framework.
Try this for some more info: http://www-306.ibm.com/software/tivoli/products/mgt-framework/ James Thomas "With every new sunrise, there is a new chance. But with every sunset, you blew it." - Jack Handey ------------------------------------------------- I am looking for information on a product that I received along with the most recent set of CD for TSM. The product is Tivoli Data Warehouse. What does it do? what is it for? Is it something I need to install for TSM? I also get CDs for something called Tivoli Monitoring ( we don't use it as we use BMC) and for Tivoli Management Frame work ( I think this is the base component for Tivoli Monitoring; they work together) I believe I get the software CDs because we are an enterprise edition user of TSM. Any information on these products would be gratefully appreciated Thanks in advance Bill
