Chapter 2: Planning an Enterprise SQL Server Manager Deployment

Chapter 2

This chapter helps you plan an Enterprise SQL Server Manager deployment. It provides worksheets for gathering information and a rationale for their use. The material in this chapter does not replace the information in Tivoli Management Platform Planning and Installation Guide; this chapter supplements that information and applies it specifically to Enterprise SQL Server Manager.

The general steps for planning an Enterprise SQL Server Manager deployment are:

1. Describe the current enterprise:
   • Business function
   • Database administrator team
   • SQL Server installations
   • SQL Server management environment
2. Plan the components of an Enterprise SQL Server Manager deployment that meets your business needs:
   • Tivoli Management Regions (TMRs)
   • Policy regions
   • Administrator assignments
   • Event monitoring

Before you read this chapter, be familiar with:

• Planning and installation issues discussed in Tivoli Management Platform Planning and Installation Guide
• Tivoli Management Platform TMRs, policy regions, profile management, tasks, task scheduling, and policy as described in Tivoli Management Platform User's Guide
• The Enterprise SQL Server Manager implementation of profile management and policy as described in Chapters 11 through 13 of Enterprise SQL Server Manager User's Guide
