To show the access time in the following format, click the Get impact info. button:

Access time: YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss

If part of the information is updated, (*) is displayed at the end of the date and time.

Node

Each root jobnet is represented as a box. The colors of a node are the same as those of the corresponding component in the sunburst chart. When you click a node, the clicked node shows up in the middle of the window as the center node, and the window is refreshed to display information regarding the clicked node. Note, however, that gray nodes are not clickable.

On the other hand, you can click any node names regardless of their color. If you click a node name, only information displayed in the properties for job flow area is refreshed.

The nodes of JP1 events that are defined as severe events are colored according to the event level and status. The nodes of JP1 events that are not defined as severe events appear in white.

The table below describes how the nodes of JP1 events that are defined as severe events are colored according to the event level and status.

Table 2‒3: Colors of nodes according to the event level and status of JP1 events

Event level	Event status				UNKNOWN node#

#

This means a root jobnet for which the user has no permissions or a root jobnet (node) that lacks the tree SID.

When you hover over the icon, the tree path of the node is displayed in a tooltip.

Center node

The component (root jobnet) selected in the Operating status area, the Job flow tab, or the Related node tab is put in the middle of the window as the center node, and the relationships with other nodes are displayed. If the center node has no relationship with other nodes, only the center node is displayed. The center node is displayed enclosed in a blue frame.

The preceding root jobnets and succeeding root jobnets are displayed on the left and right of the center node on the window, respectively. If there is no preceding root jobnet or succeeding root jobnet, a gray node (UNKNOWN node) is displayed.

The Events area displays the information on the center node.

Root jobnet name

The name of the node is displayed as the root jobnet name. When you hover over a node, the tree path appears. If the full path is too long, the end of the path is replaced with an ellipsis (...).

When you click it, the root jobnet name turns blue, showing the information in the properties for Job flow area. Note that the component selected in the Operating status area remains unchanged.

Relationships between root jobnets

The relationships between root jobnets are represented with curved lines.

If a root jobnet has a looped connection to itself, the node is displayed at the right end and left end on the window as separate nodes.

Work impact icon

Shows if failures in the preceding root jobnets impact following root jobnets when failures occur, with one of the icons below.

There is no impact if no icon is displayed.
