1.2 Tivoli systems management product
Tivoli, as part of the IBM Software group, provides IT resource management
software. The complete systems management approach from Tivoli is grouped
into four pillars, as shown in Figure 1-1.
Figure 1-1 Tivoli software product pillars
Underlying the Tivoli solution set is a group of common services and an
infrastructure that provides consistency across Tivoli management applications
and enables integration.
Within the Tivoli product family, specific solutions target four primary disciplines
of systems management: Performance and Availability, Configuration and
Operation, Storage Management, and Security. Products within each of these
areas have been made available over the years and, through generations of
enhancements, have become accepted solutions in enterprises around the
world. With these core capabilities in place, IBM has been able to focus on
building applications that take advantage of these pillars to provide true business
systems management solutions.
With this end-to-end set of solutions built on a common foundation, enterprises
can manage the ever-increasing complexity of their IT infrastructures with
reduced staff and increasing efficiency.

In the performance and availability area, products are structured as shown in
Figure 1-2.
Figure 1-2 Tivoli performance and availability solutions
The Tivoli performance and availability portfolio is an integrated family of
products that span Web, client-server, and host environments and are designed
to provide a comprehensive and scalable solution for centralized management of
e-business operations. Tivoli can simplify performance and availability
management by consolidating and integrating products into three independent
layers that offer three distinct types of value, yet provide superior management
capabilities when used together. All offerings are designed to help provide
out-of-the-box value and rapid return on investment, while minimizing total cost of
ownership through high quality and comprehensive functionality.
Tivoli simplifies autonomic prevention and recovery of IT problems at their source
with out-of-the-box IBM best practices in the IBM Tivoli Monitoring products
(yellow layer). Event correlation and automation products (green layer) provide
centralized autonomic prevention and recovery of IT problems that span multiple
resources. By providing better root-cause analysis and automated responses to
identified problems, these products can help you:
