Monitoring

Monitoring is done by listing plan objects. Using lists, you can see the status of all or of subsets of the following objects in the current plan:
  • Job stream instances
  • Job instances
  • Domains
  • Workstations
  • Resources
  • File dependencies
  • Prompt dependencies

You can use these lists also to manage some of these objects. For example, you can reallocate resources, link or unlink workstations, kill jobs, or switch domain manager.

Additionally, you can monitor the daily plan with Tivoli Business Service Manager, an object-oriented systems management application that provides monitoring and event management of resources, applications, and subsystems, that is integrated with IBM Workload Scheduler.

Network managers can use IBM Workload Scheduler/NetView, a NetView® application, to monitor and diagnose IBM Workload Scheduler networks from a NetView management node. It includes a set of submaps and symbols to view IBM Workload Scheduler networks topographically, and determine the status of job scheduling activity and critical IBM Workload Scheduler processes on each workstation. Menu actions are provided to start and stop IBM Workload Scheduler processing and to run conman on any workstation in the network.
