The OMEGAMON® product suite provides performance and availability monitoring for z/OS® and for various products that run on z/OS such as CICS®, IMS™ and DB2®. OMEGAMON XE for z/OS uses the Tivoli® Enterprise Portal (TEP) graphical user interface (GUI) to present the performance and availability information that it has gathered. When multiple products that use the TEP are present, the dynamic workspace linking capabilities of the TEP make it possible to follow a trail that begins as a symptom in one product – for example with a communications problem reported by NetView® – and move in-context from NetView’s description of the problem, to CICS’s description of the problem, to DB2’s description of the problem, to z/OS’s description of the problem, and so on.
