SysPoint is the primary entry point into the NV4IP multi-Host Monitoring application. SysPoint displays the Stack Name and IP address for each active Host with its associated Alerts, workload for that stack, channel links status, and connection data for Listeners and Sessions. If you added multiple Hosts and any of them are currently inactive, the Stack Name and IP address for each display with a message that the Host is inactive. The data is displayed in a table for quick reference and provides the ability to drill down by clicking in a cell when further information is needed.
Note: You must define at least one Host Monitor the first time you use NV4IP to be able to access Host data.
From the SysPoint Home Page, you may:
1. View Alerts, both in a Summary showing all Alerts for the current, last, and since midnight time periods and in detail for a selected Alert.
2. View application activity and the connectivity of all your TCP/IP or UDP (non-EE) sessions as well as EE UDP workload in real time through the Connect Expert.
3. View all channel-attached processors and links associated with the TCP/IP stack in real time or access the Thru24 IP Summary/Detail reports for near-time IP throughput information through LinkView (Master and Operations Manager users only).
To drill down from the SysPoint Home Page, complete the following steps:
1. For Alerts, place the mouse cursor in the cell for the corresponding Alert and click. A drop-down menu appears from which either the All Alert Summary or Detail Report for the particular Alert type may be viewed.
2. For Connect Expert and/or LinkView, click the Stack IP Address, then click either Show Connect Expert or Show LinkView from the drop-down menu. LinkView will not display in the drop-down menu if you do not have user authorization to access it.
