Accessing the Service Console through the enhanced 3270 user interface

You can access the Service Console from the ITM Service Index workspace in the OMEGAMON® enhanced 3270 user interface.

About this task

To use the ITM Service Console workspace, you must supply a user ID and password. This information is sent to a Tivoli® Enterprise Monitoring Server. The user ID and password (and the Service Console or SOAP commands and their results) are normally sent in clear text using TCP/IP and the HTTP protocol. If you want the password and ID to be sent in encrypted form instead of clear text, you must use the secure version of this workspace. To use the secure versions of these workspaces, the address space must be enabled to use the Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) communications protocol.

Use the following procedure to access the ITM Service Index (KOBHNDX) workspace in the OMEGAMON enhanced 3270 user interface:
