Automatic BMC Incident creation with Enterprise Alert
How to use Enterprise Alert to automatically create incidents inside of BMC.
Enterprise Alert's Automation Engine: Creating BMC Incidents
Recently we have received a lot of requests for Enterprise Alert to not only alert on critical situations but to also take a proactive approach to initiate, record and track those situations through ITSM tools such as ServiceNow and BMC Remedy. This post will center around what happens when critical systems fail and tickets are not being created in BMC due to a break in the workflow.
Integration of Enterprise Alert 9 with AzureMonitor
Our Azure Monitor connector provides seamless 2-way integration of Enterprise Alert 9 with Azure Monitor. Once added to your Enterprise Alert instance, the connector will read your Azure Monitor alerts fully automatically and trigger alert notifications, e.g. to your team members on duty. It also synchronizes the alert status from Enterprise Alert 9 to Azure Monitor so that if alerts are acknowledged or closed, this status is also updated on the according alert in Azure Monitor.
Who is on standby? Simple question, simple answer.
In our feature session for the current Enterprise Alert release, we were asked if it was possible to make the on-call page available to every employee regardless of whether they have a user account in Enterprise Alert or not. This option has existed in Enterprise Alert for a long time, but admittedly it is not very well documented. So I would like to take this opportunity to show you what the on-call overview can offer you and how to share the on-call page.
Copy and Paste Multi-Team Schedules
With the release of Enterprise Alert 9, not only have our capabilities for tighter integration with almost any source system imaginable been massively expanded, but our front end has also received some much requested updates. Among them are our multi-team schedules. These allow – especially for international companies – a simple and clear planning of readiness of several teams across different time zones.
Enterprise Alert Alarm Center. A NOC's best friend.
Over time, Enterprise Alert continues to grow and more and more teams are starting to benefit from Enterprise Alert’s reliable alerting. As part of this process, Enterprise Alert almost always becomes a central component of the NOC and has practically trained the NOC admins. For this reason, here in support we rarely have the pleasure of presenting the features of our alarm center.

Self-Service for Teams in Enterprise Alert
A few days ago I had an insightful conversation with one of our customers who inspired me to write this blog. He, like so many other customers, was facing the problem that his Enterprise Alert management overhead was increasing with each new team he added, as he had been managing resources such as event sources, notification channels and alert policies for the new teams as well. His question to us, therefore, was whether he could not also put these management tasks in the hands of the teams.
