and OMEGAMON XE for Messaging
Technote (FAQ)

Question
This technote clarifies the following 4 questions about compatibility
between IBM Tivoli Monitoring v6.1/6.2 and OMEGAMON XE for
Messaging v6.0.0/6.0.1/7.0.0:

1. Which levels of Tivoli Enterprise Portal (TEP)/Tivoli Enterprise Portal

Server (TEPS)/Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server (TEMS) and which
levels of OMEGAMON XE for Messaging application support can
coexist?

2. Which levels of OMEGAMON XE for Messaging agent and which

levels of IBM Tivoli Monitoring (ITM) agent framework can coexist?

3. Which levels of OMEGAMON XE for Messaging application support

and which levels of OMEGAMON XE for Messaging agent can coexist?

4. Which levels of OMEGAMON XE for Messaging application support on

HUB TEMS and which levels of OMEGAMON XE for Messaging
application support on REMOTE TEMS can coexist?

Answer
Note:
In the following tables, Y means compatible; blank means incompatible.

Notes:
1). Only if you apply ITM V6.2 FP01 as an upgrade and not a pristine install.
2). Formal tests have not been conducted by IBM. However, support will be provided if you
run into any problems.

3. Messaging application support and Messaging agent coexistence:

The level of Messaging application support must always be higher than or equal to the
highest level of any Messaging agent. The level of Messaging application support on the
TEP, TEPS and TEMS must always be the same.

4. Messaging application support on hub TEMS and Messaging application support on

remote TEMS coexistence:
The level of Messaging application support on the hub TEMS must be equal to the level on
a remote TEMS. The application support means CAT and ATR files.

5.ITM TEP/TEPS/TEMS level and ITM Agent Framework Level:

They are different."ITM TEP/TEPS/TEMS level" means ITM level of TEP/TEPS/TEMS,
however, "ITM Agent Framework Level" indicates ITM level of agent side.
