Workspace descriptions
Each workspace description provides information about the workspace such as the purpose and a list of views in the workspace.
Workspaces are listed under navigator items.
IBM Tivoli Monitoring for Tivoli Network Manager navigator item
The workspace descriptions are organized by the navigator item to which the workspaces are relevant.
- IBM Tivoli Monitoring for Tivoli Network Manager workspace
- This workspace displays the overall state of the Tivoli
Network Manager application.
This workspace contains the following views:
- Availability
- Displays the state of the Tivoli Network Manager processes.
- Discovery
- Displays the state of the Tivoli Network Manager Discovery.
- Network
- Displays the Tivoli Network Manager Network metrics.
Availability navigator item
The workspace descriptions are organized by the navigator item to which the workspaces are relevant.
- Availability workspace
- The Availability workspace displays the overall health of the
application.
This workspace contains the following views:
- Availability
- Displays the state of each component in the application. Each process is displayed using a descriptive name, the name of the running process, and the state of the process (UP, DOWN, or PROCESS_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE). When the state of the component is DOWN (for a process, or service) it is highlighted with a red background.
- Processor
- Displays the amount of CPU used by each process that is a component of the application. This displays the 2 main components of CPU usage, privileged time which is time spent in the kernel on behalf of the process and user mode time, which is the time spent running the process code.
- Threads
- Displays the number of threads used by each process that is a component of the application.
- Memory
- Displays the amount of memory being consumed by each process that is a component of the application. This total (virtual) size of the process and the size of the process in memory (working set) are displayed.
Discovery navigator item
The workspace descriptions are organized by the navigator item to which the workspaces are relevant.
- Discovery workspace
- The Discovery workspace displays the health of the network
discovery done by Tivoli Network Manager and gathers the metrics used to generate reports.
This workspace contains the following views:
- Current_Discovery
- This view displays a snapshot of the current discovery. The values are all set to zero, no discovery is available at the moment.
- Last Discovery Phase Duration
- Displays a snapshot of the duration of each phase of the last completed discovery.
- Last Discovery Memory Usage in KBytes
- Displays a snapshot of the memory usage to process the last completed discovery.
- Objects Discovered
- Displays a snapshot of the objects discovered during the last completed discovery.
- Agent Status
- Displays a snapshot of the status of each agent configured in the system.
Monitoring navigator item
The workspace descriptions are organized by the navigator item to which the workspaces are relevant.
- Monitoring workspace
- This workspace displays information related to Tivoli Network
Manager monitoring. The workspace gathers network monitoring metrics used to monitor the Tivoli
Network Manager pollers and to generate reports.
This workspace contains the following views:
- Displays the total number of MIB objects retrieved per second.
- Number of Devices Being Polled by Poll Definition Type
- Displays the total number of devices being polled by poll definition type.
- Packets Sent by Poller
- Displays the total number of packets sent by the poller.
- Packets Processed by Poller
- Displays the total number of packets processed by the poller.
- SNMP Errors and Timeout Responses
- Displays the total number of SNMP errors and timeouts.
Network navigator item
The workspace descriptions are organized by the navigator item to which the workspaces are relevant.
- Network workspace
- This workspace displays information related to a network monitored
by Tivoli Network Manager. The workspace gathers network discovery metrics used to monitor the
network and to generate reports.
This workspace contains the following views:
- Network elements
- Displays the total number of network elements listed by type in a monitored network.
- Devices with and without SNMP access
- Displays the total number of devices with and without SNMP access.
- Interfaces Up and Down
- Displays a counter of the interface Operational status that can be UP or DOWN.
