EE Connections workspace

The EE Connections workspace provides information about performance data for the Enterprise Extender (EE) links when the IP address for one end of an EE link resides on a monitored z/OS(R) system image. An EE link is uniquely defined by the local IP address and remote IP address.

Summary information is provided in the EE Connections Summary table located at the bottom of the workspace.

This workspace is displayed by clicking on the EE Navigator item.

The EE Connections workspace contains the following views:

  • Packet Retransmission Rate > 0 Chart: Provides the number of HPR network-layer packets, by PU Name, that were retransmitted per minute over this EE connection during the most recent interval. This information is presented in a bar graph where:
    • Yellow represents the number of packets whose retransmission rates were greater than zero (0) over the most recent sampling interval.
  • EE Connections w/ Byte Rate > 0 Bar Chart: Shows the number of EE Connections, by PU Name, that were sent and received, per minute, during the most recent interval. This information is presented in a bar graph where:
    • Yellow represents the number of bytes sent over the most recent sampling interval.
    • Blue represents the number of bytes received over the most recent sampling interval.
  • RTP Pipes > 10 or Sessions > 1000 Bar Chart: Displays the number of RTP pipes that are flowing over this EE Connection and the number of LU-to-LU sessions that are flowing over this EE Connection. This information is presented in a bar graph where:
    • Yellow represents the number of RTP Pipes over the most recent sampling interval.
    • Blue represents the number of LU-to-LU sessions over the most recent sampling interval.
  • EE Connections w/Packet Rates > 0 Bar Chart: Shows the number of HPR network-layer packets that were sent over this EE connection, per minute, during the most recent sampling interval. This information is presented in a bar graph where:
    • Yellow represents the number of packets sent over the most recent sampling interval.
    • Blue represents the number of packets received over the most recent sampling interval.
  • EE Connections Summary table: Displays summary information about a particular EE or HPR PU.
