12.1.2 Monitoring by using Centoral Scope
This method enables grouping of systems and monitoring from a tree- or map-type window.
You can display icons on the Monitoring tree window that indicate the operating statuses of the monitoring agents and can check the statuses by checking the color of the icons. In JP1/IM, a monitoring target is called a monitored object.
- Tip
-
The name of the icon that indicates the operating status of the monitoring agent is agent-name Monitoring(PFM) for single-instance agents, and agent-name_instance-name Monitoring(PFM) for multi-instance agents. For example, for a single-instance PFM - Agent for Platform (Windows), Windows Monitoring (PFM) appears as the icon name. For a multi-instance PFM - Agent for Oracle with the instance name InstA, Oracle_InstA Monitoring (PFM) appears as the icon name.
When a JP1 event is issued in Performance Management, the color of the icon for PFM - Agent or PFM - RM changes to a color that indicates the error status. This helps to easily identify agents with problems.
- Note
-
To use the JP1/IM Central Scope to automatically generate a Monitoring tree, JP1/Base must be running on the PFM - Agent or PFM -RM host that is to be added to the tree.
