EMC Smarts Application Connectivity Monitor Configuration Guide
Application Connectivity Monitor operates in conjunction with Availability
Manager and Service Assurance Manager. Availability Manager provides
the network topology for Application Connectivity Monitor. Service
Assurance Manager collects the results of the deployment’s root-cause
analysis, and presents those results to network operations personnel through
its Global Console.

Managing Applications with Application Connectivity

A typical large-scale application deployment can include numerous software
services and hardware devices, all of which must interact in a prescribed
fashion to provide a business service. It follows, then, that there is a need for
a scalable solution for monitoring the availability of hundreds or thousands
of applications, along with the ability to automatically differentiate
application failures from network connectivity failures.

Application Connectivity Monitor addresses this fundamental problem of
application management in the following ways:

•
Helps the user define the application to be managed, and helps the user
through the process of discovering and monitoring the appropriate
components.

•
Codebook Correlation Technology™ requires only a small subset of the
events that occur in such an environment to perform root-cause analysis.
The InCharge Common Information Model (ICIM) used by Application
Connectivity Monitor models only the necessary components; this
obviates the need for the complete topological infrastructure and the
monitoring of every component and device.

Application Connectivity Monitor comes pre-configured with application
signatures for all common TCP based applications based on IANA
registered ports. In addition, users can easily create new signatures using
the Application Signature Configuration Interface.
