Atrium Impact Simulator:What is this feature?
› Atrium Impact Simulator (AIS) is an option in the Atrium 7.5.00 installer– Install Atrium Impact Simulator Engine 7.5.00 – Pre-requisite for the Change Management and AIS integration (CHGAIS) to load
and become accessible
› AIS is based on SIM technology and calculates the impact given a set of Configuration Items (CI’s).
– Does not require the purchase of Service Impact Management
› Allows change users to create a new Change Request based on a simulated impact analysis (or what-if scenario) generated by Atrium Impact Simulator (AIS).
› A Service Model must be present in the Atrium CMDB in order to take advantage of this feature.

Service Level Management 7.5: What’s New ?

Cross Solution Integration – CI Outage
› BMC SLM now offers two methods to measure Configuration Item (CI) availability
› BMC SLM 7.1 Availability Service Targets– Measure the time an asset or service is available or unavailable based on defined
qualifications– Tracked by monitoring changes in state on a specific record on a form– Measurement records are created when a record is submitted or modified and meets
the terms and conditions of the Service Target
› CI Outage Service Targets – Measure CI availability based on Asset Management Outage records– Ability to select and relate Configuration Items (CIs) to Service Targets– Select the time to begin outage tracking and the associated business entity– SLM will begin tracking the records after the service target is created and any
previous CI Outages are ignored

Scheduling Service Target Builds
› Problem with Service Target builds– Any change to a Service Target definition required a build– Rebuilding Service Targets during business hours impacted the AR Server– Each rebuild required the AR Server to re-cache workflow– Changing and rebuilding multiple Service Targets compounded the problem– Service Targets could only be built at save time or manually
› Two big improvements– Service Target daily build schedule– Reducing the need to rebuild Service Target to essential changes
• Terms and Conditions• Reset goal• Milestones and Actions• Service Target status (enable/disable)• Changes to the “Effective from” field

Identity Management is a critical part of Service Operation.
Service Operation also encompasses management of Events, Incidents, Requests, and Problems. The
strategy is to move from an IdM-centric model to an Identity-aware BSM model.
