Agent Status Workspace

The Agent Status Workspace enables you to verify configuration of the selected OMEGAMON(R) XE for Mainframe Networks monitoring agent and to find information about the agent, VTAM(R), and the TCP/IP address spaces on your system that you may need to troubleshoot data collection problems. The data displayed is collected in real time when you navigate to the workspace or refresh the workspace. See the IBM Tivoli OMEGAMON XE for Mainframe Networks: Troubleshooting Guide for more information about how to use the data displayed in this workspace to troubleshoot agent problems.

To display the Agent Status workspace, click the Agent Navigator item for a specified OMEGAMON XE for Mainframe Networks monitoring agent.

The Agent Status workspace contains the following views:

Agent Status Table

The Agent Status Table displays configuration and status information for this monitoring agent instance.

For a complete list of the attributes available in the Agent Status Summary Table, and a brief description of each, see the KN3 Agent Status Attributes help panel.

SNA Collector Status Table

The SNA Collector Status Table displays information about what SNA data is being collected and displays the status of the SNA network management interface and the VTAM resources used to collect the data.

For a complete list of the attributes available in the SNA Collector Status Summary Table, and a brief description of each, see the KN3 SNA Collector Status Attributes help panel.

TCP Collector Status Table

The TCP Collector Status Table displays information about what TCP data is being collected for a specified stack.

When TCP data collection is stopped using the z/OS MODIFY commands, the data collection indicators (for example, TN3270 Server Collection) and their associated configuration intervals (for example, TN3270 Data Display Interval) are reset. When z/OS MODIFY commands change the configured status of attributes in this attribute table, the data collection indicators show a value of No and the associated intervals show a value of zero (0). When TCP data collection is restarted, the configuration values are restored.

For a complete list of the attributes available in the TCP Collector Status Summary Table, and a brief description of each, see the KN3 TCP Collector Status Attributes help panel.
