Identifying network problems

You can identify network problems in two ways: using network views or using event lists.

About this task

Network views and event lists are presented in the GUI in the following ways:
Network view bookmarks
Subset of selected network views. Selection of network views to include in a bookmark is usually based on those network views the operator or operations group needs to monitor.
Network view libraries
Complete network views, showing all network devices and subnets as hierarchically organized views of a discovered network.
Event lists
Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus Web GUI Event Viewer list displays device event data from the Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus ObjectServer.
Network health view
The Network Health View displays topology and event data in a composite GUI, where topology data in the form of network view libraries or bookmarks is shown in the top widget, and event data in the Event Viewer is shown in the lower widget. Selection of a device from the network view libraries or bookmarks generates a list of events for that device in the Event Viewer.
