IBM Tivoli Monitoring: i5/OS Agent Workspaces

When you install the IBM Tivoli Monitoring: i5/OS Agent, you will receive a collection of predefined workspaces. The predefined workspaces display data collected on an interval basis.

Using the predefined workspaces of IBM Tivoli Monitoring: i5/OS Agent you can:

In most cases, a predefined workspace has an attribute group that contains attributes similar to the columns in the predefined workspace. You can use these values to build your own workspaces and to create your own situations.

Organization of the Predefined Workspaces

The illustration shows the organization of the predefined workspaces provided with IBM Tivoli Monitoring: i5/OS Agent. The indicates that you can access additional workspace using the View menu or that you can link to details using the Link To command. For example, you can use the Navigator to select Communications and then select View menu > Workspace command > X25 command.
