Scalability:

OpManager Enterprise edition can monitor upto 10,000 devices and 50,000 interfaces out-of-the-box.

Generally, all the archived data (for Reports) stored in the Probes is transferred to the Central and the Central server gives a unified view of all the Reports. But this impacts scalability when a highly distributed environment (deploying additional number of Probes) is required.

To scale up the number of Probes, an option has been introduced. When this scalability option is enabled, it prevents the Probes from sending archived data to the Central. With this option enabled, users can still view the Reports in the Central. But when a report is accessed, the data will be generated from the Probe database and rendered in the Central server to facilitate connection with more number of Probes.

For scaling more devices, contact opmanager-support@manageengine.com

Installation

To install OpManager Enterprise Edition, follow the instructions in this page.

Configure HTTP to HTTPS mode of communication

By default, the communication between the Probe servers and the Central server is through HTTP or HTTPS. To switch from HTTP to HTTPS mode of communication, follow the instructions in this page.
