Is it possible to extend Enterprise Manager?

  • How would you go about writing "plug-ins" or extensions for Enterprise Manager, if possible? Doe's it have an extensible architecture at all?

  • Ben,

    Just run MMC from command line and then you can add pretty much anything you want to it.  Once you have added what you want you then save the configuration (***.msc) and then all you need to do in the future is open the new msc as follows "mmc.exe ***.msc"

    Hope this helped

    Thanks,

    I'm aware that Enterprise Manager uses MMC, and I'm fairly familiar with creating custom MMC snap-ins in COM based languages like Delphi.

    What I meant was, how would you go about adding new menus and repsonding to events from within the Enterprise Manager MMC snap-in? Is there any documented API's. Do any third-party companies provide EM extensions?

    Thanks

  • ah...

    To my knowledge and use of EM no.  I think EM is used as an admin tool only and not to be used in anything other than a "viewer" type app.

    If you do find out I would be interested in it though.

     

    Good Luck
