CenterPoint Energy Moves From IBM Tivoli to Microsoft Operations Manager 2005 for Monitoring

Overview CenterPoint Energy needed an efficient way to monitor new Microsoft software it was rolling out on 261 server computers in 125 sites, while continuing to manage its IBM mainframe, UNIX, and other existing environments. The company wanted a solution that would integrate with the IBM Tivoli Enterprise software that monitored those environments, enabling CenterPoint to easily manage systems enterprisewide. To benefit from Microsoft expertise in managing the software, CenterPoint implemented Microsoft Operations Manager (MOM) 2005, part of Microsoft Windows Server System integrated server software. It also enlisted Microsoft partner Engyro Corporation to install its Product Connector for MOM 2005 to Tivoli TEC. Now CenterPoint has a precise view of how its entire network computing infrastructure is performing.
