Functionality

Operation Manager (full version) makes possible:

• correlation of information received from Notification Processor and Network Manager;
• grouping received information into current cases with assigned identifiers that are unique in the system;
• running actions (specified programs) for processed cases taking into consideration correlation of events included in their case, results of finished actions and time of its last occurrence;
• processing events received from processes that aren't David system modules; it allows to respond to events not originated from SNMP agent;
• getting information about current processed cases, failures and their service;
• learning to recognize potentially dangerous events for monitored networks.
• notifing an operator about received massages, pending cases, and recording user's identyfier and his/her reaction time.

Description

Operation Manager is an important part of the whole system. Other David system products influence on its work but it also influences on their work making some decisions. Using special algorithms, it tries to estimate severity of received information, and also finds connections between received messages. Information received by the product, can be different types ( e.g.: data received through SNMP protocol and SNMP-Trap messages).

One of main Operation Manager goal is running specified programs or scripts as a response to a current state of monitored devices and also notifing an operator, through e-mails, graphic windows and sound signals, about processed events and pending cases (i.e.: power failures, connectivity breaks between devices, device restarts etc.).

Results of Operation Manager work can be viewed through Web Applications which also allow to control the product work.
