Job Management Partner 1 Version 10 Job Management Partner 1/Automatic Job Management System 3 Overview


7.1.1 Monitoring applications using JP1/AJS3 Console

JP1/AJS3 Console allows you to select which of the jobnets defined in JP1/AJS3 you want to monitor. JP1/AJS3 Console also allows you to centrally monitor, from a single screen, jobnets that are distributed over different manager hosts or different hierarchies (scheduler services, job groups).

The monitoring screen in JP1/AJS3 Console can be set up to display only the jobnets that the particular JP1 user wishes to monitor. To specify a jobnet, you need only specify the name of the host where the jobnet is defined, and the jobnet name (full name). The specified jobnet is displayed on the monitoring screen as an icon (AJS3 unit monitored object). The color of the icon indicates the status of the jobnet.

Examples of defining a monitoring task and monitoring a jobnet are shown in the following figures.

JP1/AJS3 Console also provides functionality, such as hierarchical management of monitored objects and background settings for monitoring screens, which gives you an enhanced visual representation of the system.

A JP1 user who logs in to JP1/AJS3 Console must fulfill certain conditions before he or she can use JP1/AJS3 Console to monitor applications. The user must:
