Updates in Virtual Infrastructure Monitoring

X86 Virtualization Technology Evolution

OMi MP for Infrastructure 2.00 will not support monitoring of X86 Virtualization. It is recommended to use monitoring only edition of Cloud Optimizer for monitoring x86 Virtualization technologies such as VMware vSphere, KVM, and Xen. Management Templates, Aspects, and policies related to these technologies are not available from OMi MP for Infrastructure 2.00 version.

For x86 Virtualization technologies, you can continue to use the virtualization component of the OMi MP for Infrastructure (versions earlier to 2.00) till the obsolescence of Operations Agent 11.1x. However, for non-x86 Virtualization technologies (VM, AIX, Solaris), you can continue to use the OMi MP for Infrastructure.

Some of the key benefits that you get with the technology evolution to Cloud Optimizer are:

  • Improved scalability and interoperability.
  • Improved coverage of metrics.

While the technology evolution entitles you to an equivalent capability replacement in Cloud Optimizer, you can get enhanced performance troubleshooting and capacity optimization of physical, virtual, and cloud technologies with the premium edition of Cloud Optimizer.
