IBM Tivoli Monitoring (ITM) and Operations Manager for Unix (OMU) Integration
SNMP emitter from ITM Hub will send all the SNMP traps to the intermediate server where HPOV Agent is hosted. This agent will parse the received SNMP trap as per the defined policy and then will forward only those events to OMU which are required to be configured. Through this filtering mechanism we can reduce the load on OMU server and will receive all the events which are required.
Policy which will be created on intermediate server will contain the rules for the specified OIDs that is required to be configured. In these rules we can defined the alert attributes i.e. alert severity, text, application, group etc.

Sonic Bus in BSM
In earlier versions of BAC (like 7.5 or before that) it was called BUS. Back then, it was Mercury's creation and BUS was based on C. After HP's acquisition, they decided to use an external, third-party product called Sonic BUS - based on java.
What you need to know about bus:
* Sonic bus is the bridge between your BSM Gateway and Data Processing servers
* Data from your Data Collectors (BPM, RUM, SiteScope, Diagnostics, OMW/U etc.) comes to your Gateway server and goes to the Sonic BUS. From there, different components catch the data and use it for their own purpose:
- db_loader inserts this raw data in your Profile database, so it can be used for reports for example. Based on this data, you get aggregated data. No data from db_loader, no reports.
- the MARBLE (former online_engine) components of BSM use the Sonic BUS to catch your data and color your views (Dashboard/Service Health).
* Sonic BUS mainly consists of two parts - Message Broker and Domain Manager. MB is located on both Gateway and Data Processing servers, whereas the DM resides only on the Data Processing one. Your data is being transferred between the MB of the two servers.
* Message Broker and Domain Manager work by default on respectively ports 2507 and 2506. Sonic BUS also uses a wide range of dynamic ports.
* Sonic BUS has its own local database (on the BSM file system) - the information that goes to it is not stored in the Database server!
* If you access your BSM servers, go to Start > Programs > Progress, you will find the Sonic BUS management console (press ok to login). From here, you can manage and view the data that is in the Sonic BUS queues.
