Sipmon BAM is a Sipmon extension that requires a valid license key. To purchase one, contact Sipmon.

Prerequisites

See the software requirements.

Install BAM on the central server. The central server and Sipmon BAM must be installed in the same major versions (i.e. both in 22.10.x). If you want to be able to view the Business activities monitored by a remote server, install BAM on the remote server too. When BAM is installed on a remote server, the Business activities will only include the resources monitored by the remote server.

If you are using MariaDB replication for your monitoring databases, installing Sipmon BAM generates a view. You need to exclude it from replication by adding the following line on the my.cnf file of the slave server:

Create the view manually on the slave server using this file, by executing the following command:
