What is the Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control plug-in?

Hi cmbhatt, Here's a summary: Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control System Monitoring Plug-in for F5 BIG-IP Local Traffic Manager Description The System Monitoring Plug-in for F5 BIG-IP Local Traffic Manager extends Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control to add support for managing the F5 BIG-IP Local Traffic Manager. By deploying the plug-in in your Grid Control environment, you gain the following management features: - Monitor the F5 BIG-IP Local Traffic Manager. - Gather configuration data and track configuration changes for the BIG-IP Local Traffic Manager. - Raise alerts and violations based on thresholds set on monitoring and configuration data. - Provide rich out-of-box reports for the user interface based on the gathered data. - Support monitoring by a remote Agent. For remote monitoring, the Agent does not need to be on the same computer as F5 BIG-IP. Thanks and let me know if you need anything further.

Hi, does this updated version work with LTM version 10? Thanks, -Dan

Hi Dan, The plug-in was developed for BIG-IP versions 9 and 10. So, far we have tested against version 9 and are scheduled to test against version 10 during the week of October 5. However, if you are intrested in giving it a go before then, head on over to the forum, below, and you can get the latest code. http://devcentral.f5.com/Default.aspx?tabid=53&view=topics&forumid=63 Cheers!
