What is CA APM Introscope?
CA Application Performance Management Introscope is an industry standard monitoring platform which provides detailed insight into application performance across many aspects of the BI Platform. Through a partnership between SAP and Computer Associates, SAP Solution Manager includes a "Right to View" or view-only version of CA APM Introscope which is used to collect performance metrics for E2E Diagnostics tools. For SAP customers running SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform but do not have SAP Solution Manager, it is possible to still leverage the core monitoring functionality of Introscope by configuring the SAP Solution Manager Diagnostic (SMD) Agents in stand-alone mode (aka BOLight mode)
Purpose

- Provide assistance on acquiring the required software from the Software Download Center
- Cover in detail the various steps needed to successfully enable Introscope Monitoring for BI Platform and Apache Tomcat
