Overview of the monitoring template
The Performance Management products provide the following methods for defining alarms and reports:
-
Using the alarms and reports defined by PFM - Agent
-
Copying and customizing the alarms and reports defined by PFM - Agent
-
Using a wizard to define new information
A set of alarms and reports provided by PFM - Agent is called a monitoring template. Because the necessary information is predefined for the reports and alarms in the monitoring template, you can copy them in order to use the solution set as is or you can customize them as appropriate for your environment. This eliminates the need to use the wizard to create new definitions, thus simplifying the preparations for monitoring the operating status of desired programs.
This chapter describes the alarm and report settings in the monitoring template that have been defined by PFM - Agent for Enterprise Applications.
For details about how to use the monitoring template, see the chapter that describes operation monitoring by alarms and report creation for operation analysis in the JP1/Performance Management User's Guide.
