AIM Integration with CA Server Automation

CA Server Automation supports remote deployment for all AIMs shipped with CA Server Automation and policy configuration for SystemEDGE and the SRM AIM. The AIMs support the SystemEDGE state management model by creating stateful monitors, so that you can view status information associated with response time tests through the CA Server Automation user interface.

The following AIMs are supported for use with SystemEDGE Version 5.7 but are not supported for visualization and configuration through CA Server Automation:

• IIS AIM
• Apache AIM
• Voice AIM
• CA Insight AIM
• Exchange Server and Active Directory AIM (not applicable to CA Server Automation)

You can load and configure these AIMs locally, but CA Server Automation has no Platform Management Modules for interpreting the AIM data and provides no interface for configuration.

Note: For a detailed AIM support matrix, see the SystemEDGE Release Notes.
