RFE Review. We are continuing to monitor this RFE - the architectural changes we have made in ACEv11 make this kind of capability much more feasible, as we now have a much improved in-memory model describing the deployed artifacts running in a server. Although we don't yet have a complete command tool for this use case, we have many of the building blocks in place. For now the status remains as Uncommitted Candidate but we will continue to closely track progress in this area.
IBM sells an agent-less discovery tool called Tivoli Application Dependency Discovery Manager (TADDM) that discovers deep configuration information for critical enterprise applications and supporting infrastructure like OS, VMWare, network, IIB, Message Broker, MQ, WAS, DataPower, etc and much more. The TADDM UI enables you to compare one or more IIB environments and to easily identify configuration differences between them. You can view configuration changes and drift over time, and it helps you understand application topology from a business impact perspective.
Due to processing by IBM, this request was reassigned to have the following updated attributes:
Brand - WebSphere
Product family - Integration
Product - IBM Integration Bus (WebSphere Message Broker) - IIB
For recording keeping, the previous attributes were:
Brand - WebSphere
Product family - Connectivity and Integration
Product - IBM Integration Bus (WebSphere Message Broker) - IIB
Good idea, thanks for raising. We'd like to add such a tool in time. In the mean time, our administration API (the CMP) provides extensive information about the IIB environment, including details all the way down to the node property level. It would reasonable to imagine a tool that used this information to give you the analysis you need.
