Enabling historical data collection in the enhanced 3270UI

The OMEGAMON enhanced 3270 user interface (enhanced 3270UI) is designed for investigation of current problems or those that have occurred in the recent past. Therefore, only near-term historical data can be displayed in the enhanced 3270UI workspaces.

In addition, only a subset of OMEGAMON AI for CICS and OMEGAMON AI for CICS TG attribute groups are available to configure for historical data collection in the enhanced 3270UI. Historical data configuration is limited to the subset of groups that can typically be used for problem solving.

Attribute groups that you enable historical collection for using the enhanced 3270UI are also available for viewing and configuration in the Tivoli Enterprise Portal.

Refer to Decision 8: Whether to collect historical data and how to manage it which is in the Planning section of OMEGAMON shared documentation Version 6.3.0 Fix Pack 2 for more information about collecting historical data. Refer to Near-term History in OMEGAMON shared documentation Version 6.3.0 Fix Pack 2: OMEGAMON Enhanced 3270 user interface for more information about viewing and configuring near-term history in the enhanced 3270UI.
