Creating Context 9
Event mapping to CI‘s in the Run-Time service model
– Relationship of events to dynamically updated CIs
BSM Platform• Events and discovery / topology data are brought together• End-to-end visibility of infrastructure and alerts by
showing relationships of events to CIs and business services that are impacted
• Shows CIs in context
Event consolidation through OMi
Run-time Service Model
hosts auto-discovered CIs
Bringing Clarity to Complexity10
TBEC – Topology Based Event Correlation
Efficiency gains per advanced event causal correlation
Use case addressed by TBEC:1. Something goes wrong in your environment2. Monitoring reports multiple problems via events3. Usually just one of the events describes the
CAUSE of the problem4. Others are just SYMPTOMS5. Fix the CAUSE and also the SYMPTOMS go away

Automating Correlation & Service Model Management

The “T“ in TBEC - rules based on topology– Adaptive correlation – support for dynamic environments without
addingadministrative burdenCurrent discovered Topology utilized to correlate related events
Related events analyzed to determine SYMPTOMS and CAUSE.
As new CIs and relationships are automatically discovered, the TBEC rules are automatically applied. Experts define the rules ONCE and do NOT have to go back and update when the infrastructure changes

Automatic prioritization of Events
12
Based on Business / Mission Context
Event Priority is calculated based on severity and business / mission impact.
Event that affects business service of criticality 4 gets higher priority than event that affects business service of criticality 2.
CI business impactis calculated based on Business Criticality of all affected business services, applications and business process CIs and eg. SLAs.
Business Criticality
Values: 0..50 = lowest5 = highest

HP Service Health Analyzer (SHA)
1. Anticipate problems before the business is impacted and prevent downtime
2. Automatically correlate information from multiple domains
3. Reduce cost of handling events by proactively investigating anomalies
4. Self learning system

Implementing the Ops Bridge19
Value to the OrganizationExpertsCan focus on mission / business initiatives
• Less time spent on day to day operations tasks
• Less time spent on administration• Are able to add incremental value to
operations more rapidly
OperationsAre more effective at day to day operations activities
• Continued control of OpEx• Higher efficiency – lower MTTR• Higher Service levels
Spend less time working on
day to day operations
Spend less time maintaining
operational solutions
Optimize time engaged in
evolving operational solutions
Maximize time spent on strategic activities
Reduce false alarms.
Work on causes and not
symptoms. Enable co-
operative cross-domain working
Focus on what matters to the
business Handle a higher
