So my boss calls me over yesterday and tells me he needs two servers for 2nd Wave to install BMC on to monitor the databases. I say, huh?

Apparently the CIO decided to have a consulting company (2nd Wave) install and configure BMC to monitor all the databases (Oracle and SQL Server) in the company.
I met with them briefly today (only because I asked to, it hadn't been deemed necessary before that) and I'll admit it doesn't look too bad so far, even if we already get all the information they provide (plus more) from various sql scripts and statspack.

Does anyone have any gotchas, warnings, "send out your resume NOW" recommendations for working with the BMC Patrol product? Any experience with 2nd Wave?

Thanks in advance!
