Inform IOM, EIF, USR, TTT
The targets IOM, EIF, USR and TTT all have in common that they are intended for alert-based notification.
Alerts are generated at an alert point, which can be pre-defined by SA z/OS, user-defined by means of using the INGALERT command or when exceptional messages are captured with a severity of CRITICAL.
The keywords have the following meaning:
- IOM
- Alerts are sent to System Automation for Integrated Operations Management – SA IOM.
- EIF
- Alerts in form of so-called Event Integration Facility (EIF) events are sent to a software product such as Tivoli Netcool OMNIbus.
- USR
- Customized alert information can be sent by a user-defined alert handler to some user-defined target.
- TTT
- Alerts can be transformed to incident records (Tivoli Trouble Tickets) via the Tivoli Directory Integrator (TDI) and then sent to the IBM SmartCloud Control Desk.
For more details about using alert-based notification, refer to IBM Z® System Automation Customizing and Programming and refer to the INGALERT and INGCNTL commands in IBM Z System Automation Programmer's Reference.
