The physical view of the Tivoli Enterprise Portal Navigator shows an enterprise as a mapping of platforms, systems, agents, and monitored resources. In a sysplex environment, monitored sysplexes appear between the platform and system levels of the Navigator tree, listed by their managed system names.
Below each sysplex name are
entries that
represent a set of common objects shared by the sysplex that are monitored
by Tivoli OMEGAMON XE on z/OS, and
entries
that represent z/OS systems or LPARs being monitoring by Tivoli OMEGAMON
XE on z/OS.
Each
entry is associated with one or more workspaces
which provide information on those monitored objects. For example,
the Shared DASD Groups Data for Sysplex entry is associated with the
Shared DASD for Groups workspace, which provides information about
sysplex-wide activity of shared DASD devices. From the Shared DASD
for Groups workspace you can link to the Shared DASD Devices workspace,
which displays information about the activity of the shared devices
for a selected group, averaged over all systems in the sysplex.
Under each system name is an
entry for each
type of resource monitored by a Tivoli OMEGAMON XE monitoring agent
on that LPAR. For example, if you have installed both Tivoli OMEGAMON
XE on z/OS and Tivoli OMEGAMON XE for IMS, you will see two entries
at this level:
Under each agent entry is an entry for the managed system.
Sysplex managed system names take the form plexname :MVS:SYSPLEX, where plexname is normally the true name of the sysplex, but could be configured to be an alias name for the sysplex.
LPAR managed system names take the form plexname : smfid :MVSSYS, where plexname is normally the true name of the sysplex but could be configured to be an alias name for the sysplex. (This part of the LPAR managed system name typically matches the plexname component of its parent sysplex in the navigation tree.) The smfid component is the true SMF ID for the LPAR being monitored.
To see a description of a particular workspace, or to find instructions for accessing it, select its name in the Contents tab. Workspaces are listed alphabetically by type (sysplex-level or system-level).
