Understanding the Tivoli Enterprise Portal

Tivoli® Enterprise Portal provides a view of your enterprise from which you can drill down to more closely examine components of each system being monitored. It is available in both desktop and browser mode.

IBM® Z OMEGAMON® AI for Networks uses the Tivoli Enterprise Portal to provide a view of your enterprise from which you can drill down to more closely examine components of each system being monitored. The application window consists of a Navigator that shows all the systems in your enterprise where Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Agents are installed, and a workspace that includes table and chart views of system and application conditions. Each workspace is designed to help monitor a specific component of your system (for example, FTP server or TN3270 server). A table of attributes is provided for each workspace.

Attributes provide performance measurements and data about system resources being monitored. Attributes can be used to define situations to test for specific conditions. When the conditions for a situation are met, situation event indicators are displayed in the Navigator.
