Pausing and Resuming Process Activity Monitors

You can pause the monitoring of one or more servers, groups, types, or all servers monitored by IBM® Sterling Control Center Monitor. After pausing monitoring, you can resume monitoring.

Before you begin

Pausing does not affect the server or servers themselves, only their monitoring. Pausing can be useful if, for example, you want to bring down servers for maintenance without triggering server-down messages on those servers.

Procedure

  1. To pause monitoring:
    1. From IBM Sterling Control Center Monitor Web Console's Server List view, click the desired server's overflow menu() and then select Pause Monitoring and click OK.
  2. To resume monitoring:
    1. From IBM Sterling Control Center Monitor Web Console's Server List view, click the desired server's overflow menu() and then select Resume Monitoring.
