IBM Software Group | Tivoli Software © 2007 IBM Corporation 6 Tivoli Provisioning Manager 7.1 Customer Opportunity with 7.1 –Improving User Interaction Experience A base to propel industry-leading user experience in provisioning space A service management platform that is easy to use, field-tested, flexible, and customizable (UI and Data) –Integrated Process Automation Adjacency: Integrated Process Automation offerings: TADDM, CCMDB, Release PMP, and SRM. TPM becomes the “Do’er” of Tasks Process visibility (with different teams provisioning network, storage, and servers) Ability to produce “Systems Mgt. Dashboards” by role Ability to bridge between Processes and Actions ▫Connect Approved changes to actual actions via TPM ▫Automated remediation for specific deviations (e.g., wrong attribute value) –OOTB Content Automation tasks (Discovery, Install agent. Etc.) Tasks that can be used readily in service mgt. processes (e.g., automated remediation of changed config. File): Change, Release, RunBooks, SRM, etc. –Free Function from TPAe Escalations, Actions, BIRT Reporting, Uniform Security,…

IBM Software Group | Tivoli Software © 2007 IBM Corporation 9 Tivoli Provisioning Manager 7.1 Device Models and Automation Concepts A Device Driver, also referred to as a Device Model, is a group of workflows that can be a applied to an IT asset. Common actions, such as adding an IP address to a computer, are represented in a generic form by a logical device operation Workflow: A simple program with a number of constructs that is used to manage an environment. Automation Package: A collection of commands, shell scripts, workflows, logical device operations, and Java™ plug-ins that applies to the operation of a specific type of software component or a physical device

IBM Software Group | Tivoli Software © 2007 IBM Corporation 18 Tivoli Provisioning Manager 7.1 Quick Summary of Design Changes  Data Layer –Happy Marriage between MBOs with DCM Domain Objects. MBOs automatically generated.  UI –Built using TPAe tooling.  Processes and Workflows –TPM workflows/activity plans appear as tasks callable from TPAe Jobplans/workflows  Reporting –TPAe’s BIRT reporting  TPMfOSD Integration –Eliminate redundancies in data. Make TPMfOSD accessed thru TPM UIs and make it look like an integral component of TPM  Virtualization –Additional virtualization technologies supported by implementing VM LDOs (Sun Zones, WPARs)  HA –TSA-based HA support  Usability Studies and Design Changes –Several improvements based on usability study findings – easy finding of where things are, status of agents/deployments, etc.  TPM Adjacency –TADDM -- Exploit change histories in TADDM and fix things via TPM –CCMDB, Relase PMP and SRM -- Offer TPM ‘tasks’ as the actual do’ers of work for any PMP  Deployments –Simple and multi-product POC environments, simple and multi-product, scalable production environments  Performance and Scalability Improvements –SDI manageability. DE performance  External Interfaces –Current TPM Web service interfaces are supported (a few deprecated). In addition TPM tasks can be invoked from TPAe workflows  Security –Riding on top of TPAe Security

IBM Software Group | Tivoli Software © 2007 IBM Corporation 19 Tivoli Provisioning Manager 7.1 Summary  TPM 7.1 is being built on Tivoli Process Automation engine (proven usability and ease of customizability)  Start centers by role provide at-a-glance views  Denser UIs so users find what they need quickly – Also resource oriented views  UIs are customizable. You can use TPAe tooling to show extended attributes in UIs.  ISM Adjacency: TPM as the Do’er of process tasks (from Change/Release/SRM…)  Tighter integration with TPM for OSD – all through a single UI.  BIRT reporting is easier for customization (Eclipse-based, open standards tooling)  Better usability: –matching operations to target selection –better agent status reflection in SDI –OOTB HA policies and bundled TSA –Simplified task model – all task status in one place  More Virtualization support (Solaris Zones, VMotion, WPARs)  Preserved: Task oriented views for advanced users; DCM data model & workflows, CLI & Web service interfaces
