Perform an initial discovery of network topology with Availability Manager 
and import the topology and connectivity analysis into Application 
Connectivity Monitor.
Then, use Application Connectivity Monitor to discover the software 
infrastructure.
The application signatures automate the process of discovering the 
topology and the relationships between the elements.

Application Connectivity Monitor automatically monitors all discovered TCP 
applications, and automatically isolates the root cause of application 
outages, differentiating between network connectivity failures and 
application failures.
In the case of network connectivity failures, Application Connectivity Monitor 
works with Availability Manager and Service Assurance Manager to isolate 
the specific network component that failed, providing end-to-end root cause 
analysis. As with all EMC Smarts analysis products, the root cause problem 
is automatically associated with all of the impacted systems and applications 
to provide automated impact analysis.
With Business Impact Manager, users can also calculate the impact of these 
infrastructure failures on business processes, services and customers.
Application Signature Configuration Interface
For Application Connectivity Monitor, the Domain Manager Administration 
Console, which is accessed from the Global Console, includes an 
Application Signature tab. The tab enables administrators and integrators to 
access the Application Signature Configuration Interface through which they 
can select, configure, and enable predefined application signatures. Once 
selected, configured, and enabled, Application Connectivity Monitor uses 
the signatures to discover and monitor managed applications.
