Situations

OMEGAMON XE on z/OS provides predefined situations which check for system conditions that are typically considered to be problematic or noteworthy and trigger Artwork for Critical event Critical or Artwork for Warning eventWarning event indicators in the Navigator.

Some situations are shipped with very high or very low values, which essentially disable them. You should examine these situations and customize them with values that are meaningful for your installation.

You can examine the conditions or values being monitored using the Situation editor and, if necessary, change them to ones better suited to your environment. You can also use the predefined situations as models for creating your own situations using OMEGAMON XE for z/OS attributes.

Note: If you choose to make changes to a predefined situation, you should change a copy and preserve the original situation in the form in which it was shipped.
