IMS Connect workspaces

To help you to efficiently access the IMS Connect workspaces, review this list of entries for the data sharing group workspaces and shared queues group workspaces on the Tivoli Enterprise Portal Navigator.

The IMS Connect workspaces monitor TCP/IP transaction requests as IMS Connect is processing the requests. You can use the IMS Connect workspaces to view response times and performance-related information, resource availability, and data throughput.

The child topics list all the IMS Connect workspaces and include descriptions of each IMS Connect workspace, which helps you gather exactly the information that you require to detect and prevent problems. Based on the information that these workspaces provide, you can make changes, set up situations, and verify that your changes improve performance.
Important: The child topics relate only to your Tivoli Enterprise Portal configuration.
All IMS Connect workspaces are located under a Tivoli® Enterprise Portal node with a format that includes the IMS Connect task name and the z/OS® LPAR identifier. The exact form of the IMS Connect TEP node is as follows:
connectid:smfid:CONNECT
where connectid is the name of the IMS Connect task, smfid is the SMF identifier for the LPAR being monitored, and CONNECT indicates that a managed IMS Connect address space.
