5.1.13 Displaying events by specifying time
If a large number of JP1 events occur within a short time period and exceed the maximum number of events that can be displayed on the Monitor Events page, older events may not be visible. By specifying an event display start-time, you can display these hidden events on the Monitor Events page. Before you can specify an event display start-time, you must enable the integrated monitoring database. For details about how to enable the integrated monitoring database, see 1.4.2 Setting up the integrated monitoring database in the Job Management Partner 1/Integrated Management - Manager Configuration Guide.
You can specify the event display start-time on the following pages:
-
Monitor Events page
-
Severe Events page
The following describes the procedure for specifying an event display start-time to display JP1 events that are no longer visible.
To display events by specifying a start time:
-
In the Event Console window, click the Expand/Shrink button to open the event display start-time specification area.
The event display start-time specification area is not displayed when you first log on.
For details about the event display start-time specification area, see Figure 2-4 Monitor Events page with the event display start-time specification area displayed in 2.2 Monitor Events page in the manual Job Management Partner 1/Integrated Management - Manager GUI Reference.
-
Move the slider to the time at which to start displaying events.
Based on the specified event display start-time, events that pass the user filter and view filter currently being applied are collected from the integrated monitoring database and displayed. The default for the maximum number of events that can be displayed (scroll buffer size) is 500. You can halt the collection of events beginning at the event display start-time by specifying a new event display start-time or by clicking the Cancel button.
You can specify a precise event display start-time using the Event display start-time text box. The default for the Event display start-time text box differs according to the time you log on to JP1/IM - Manager. If the logon time is later than the base time, the base time of the day you are logging on to JP1/IM - Manager is displayed by default.
Example: You log on to JP1/IM - Manager on 2008-07-08 at 10:00 when the base time is 09:00. The default value displayed in the Event display start-time text box is 2008-07-08 09:00.
If the time that you log on to JP1/IM - Manager is earlier than the base time, the base time of the day previous to logging on to JP1/IM - Manager is displayed by default.
Example: You log on to JP1/IM - Manager on 2008-07-08 at 08:00 when the base time is 09:00. The default value displayed in the Event display start-time text box is 2008-07-07 09:00.
Clicking the Most Recent Event button returns the event display start-time to the previous setting. If the automatic scrolling function is enabled, the latest event is displayed when a new event is received. To keep displaying the events for the time specified in the event display start-time specification area even when a new event is received, disable the automatic scrolling function.
