Organization of the predefined workspaces

The IBM Tivoli Composite Application Manager Agent for WebSphere Applications workspaces for the Tivoli® Enterprise Portal define data displays that appear in the Navigator Physical view. In addition to the workspaces that the Navigator lists, you can reach their subsidiary (that is, secondary) workspaces from the primary workspaces (those listed in the Navigator).

Select the primary workspace.
Right-click the name of the selected workspace in the Navigator.
Select Workspaces from the menu.

Workspace organization

The hierarchy levels shown in the Navigator depend on how your enterprise customizes the Tivoli Enterprise Portal. However, ITCAM Agent for WebSphere Applications does provide a set of predefined workspaces, which do not require customization. The following list shows the order and hierarchy of the predefined workspaces provided by the ITCAM Agent for WebSphere Applications. It is a representation of how the predefined workspaces are organized in the Navigator. For more detailed information about a workspace, click its name in the table.

Important: Some workspaces are only available when running a monitoring agent in a z/OS® environment. For more information, see Region workspaces in a z/OS environment.
