Combining agentless and agent-based approaches[]
Many IT organizations look to combine agentless and agent-based infrastructure monitoring to provide the breadth and depth you need to make sure performance and availability of critical applications. HP SiteScope’s agentless approach, with low-cost installation and maintenance, is complementary to the HP Operations Manager software for agent-based monitoring and granular data collection. Both feed into a consolidated dashboard to improve IT efficiencies and reduce event noise. HP SiteScope can also serve as an ideal starting solution for mid‑market customers who are looking for low total cost of ownership.
HP SiteScope can be deployed standalone or as part of HP Operations Center software, HP Business Availability Center software, or HP LoadRunner software implementations. As part of HP Operations Center, HP SiteScope provides agentless monitoring to complement and extend your agent-based monitoring coverage. As part of HP Business Availability Center, HP SiteScope provides key infrastructure metrics to enable you to drill down from business service or application problems to the infrastructure at fault. Lastly, HP SiteScope serves as the monitoring foundation for HP LoadRunner software to better identify bottlenecks during the load-testing phase.
How HP SiteScope Works[]
HP SiteScope provides a centralized, scalable architecture. HP SiteScope is implemented as a Java™ server application and runs on a single, central system as a daemon process. The HP SiteScope Java server supports three key functions: data collection, alerting,and reporting. All user interaction is accomplished through a Web-based user interface that enables configuration, installation, administration, real-time status,and reporting from one seamlessly integrated console.
HP SiteScope enables system administrators to monitor your IT infrastructure remotely from a central installation without the need for agents on the monitored systems. HP SiteScope accomplishes remote monitoring by logging into systems as a user from its central server, which can run on Windows®, UNIX®, and Linux® platforms. Several log-in formats are supported, including TELNET, rlogin, HTTP, SSH, and NetBIOS.
In addition, HP SiteScope offers optional failover support to give you added redundancy and automatic failover protection in the event that an HP SiteScope server fails. When the HP SiteScope primary server becomes unavailable, a secondary server takes over, providing uninterrupted monitoring.
