Job Management Partner 1/Integrated Management - Manager Overview and System Design Guide

3.5.1 Searching for JP1 events

JP1 events that need to be managed appear on the Monitor Events page of the Event Console window, but you can also use the event search function to display the following JP1 events:

Past JP1 events that have disappeared from the Monitor Events page because the number of JP1 events has exceeded the maximum number of viewable events (JP1/IM - View's scroll buffer size)

JP1 events erased from the Severe Events page by the Delete button

JP1 events without the event level extended attribute (only JP1 events for which an event level is specified are displayed in JP1/IM - View)

JP1 events filtered out by the forwarding filter and not sent to a JP1/IM manager (normal events, for example)

JP1 events filtered out by the event acquisition filter and not acquired by JP1/IM (normal events, for example)

JP1 events stored in the integrated monitoring database, if being used

You can check the contents of the events displayed as the search result on the Search Events page using the Event Details button and Monitor button in the same way as on the Monitor Events page.

Progress display

While an event search is in progress, (Searching) appears on the tab of the Search Events page. When the search is completed, a dialog box reports that the search has ended and (Searching) disappears. This is a way of telling whether a search is still in progress when there are a large number of events to be searched or the search is taking a long time.

Events found to match the search conditions are listed in order on the Search Events page. The following figure shows the Search Events page while a search is in progress.

Canceling a search

You can cancel an event search already in progress if you have set the wrong search conditions, for example, or if you have just found the events you were looking for.

To cancel an event search, click the Cancel Search button on the Search Events page, or choose View and then Cancel Search.

When you cancel an event search, the JP1 events found up to that point are listed in the window.

Reference note

You can perform other tasks during an event search. For example, you can perform event monitoring in parallel with an event search. The menu commands for other tasks that you can perform remain selectable.

Some selectable menu commands cannot be used while a search is in progress. If you attempt to use them, an error message appears.
