Automation Agent Detail Information
Use the Automation Agent Detail Information attributes to display a report about
the details known about a particular automated system, that is, a NetView domain
In contrast to other attribute groups, the information provided here is intended
only for reference and not for monitoring.
Managed System
The name of the node that the SA z/OS agent
is running on. The valid format is a character string with a maximum length
of 32 bytes and the following syntax:
sysplex:smfid:SAAGENT
Resource Name
The name of an automation resource, that
is, the first qualifier of the resource name in automation manager notation.
Resource Type
The type of an automation resource, that
is, the second qualifier of the resource name in automation manager notation. The valid
types are:
- APL The resource is an application, for example,
a job.
- APG The resource is an application group.
- SYS The resource is a z/OS system.
- SYG The container resource that contains all the
resources in the z/OS system.
- GRP A group representing a physical sysplex (systems
with the same XCF group ID) or a logical sysplex (systems with different XCF
group IDs).
- IMG The resource is an application whose sole purpose
is to represent a system image.
- MTR The resource is a monitor resource.
System
The name of the system where the resource resides. Blank for
sysplex resources.
Text
This table shows detailed information about the NetView automation agent.
- The first section identifies the system by its name, the name of the sysplex
it belongs to, the domain ID and the sysplex group as defined in the policy database.
The XCF group name specifies the XCF group that the system is a member of.
- The Software section shows the z/OS release level,
the NetView release level including the active Tower (or Towers) and the SA z/OS release
level.
- The Configuration section shows the name of the
currently active Automation Control File (ACF), when it was built and who built it. It also
shows the timestamp when the ACF was activated and the configuration token
- The next section shows the names of the currently active NetView Automation Tables.
- The Flags section shows the current settings for
system automation.
- The Scheduling Subsystem section identifies the
name and type of the primary scheduling subsystem. The type is either JES2,
JES3, or ? if unknown.
- The Root for SDF updates is used to differentiate
between systems when performing status updates.
- USS path shows the path where the SA z/OS USS automation
programs (for example, INGCCMD) are installed.
- Sysplex Timing modes show any differences between
the defined and actual sysplex configuration. The defined mode may be NONE,
ONE, or TWO. SA z/OS determines the current mode: LOCAL, SIMULATED, SINGLE,
or DOUBLE. A current mode of unknown means that the detection routines have
not yet run. The IDs of any Sysplex Timers that SA z/OS has found are also
displayed.
- The Heartbeat Interval specifies the time interval
in minutes at which SA z/OS will send a generic alert from this system to the
NMC focal point. SA z/OS on the focal point uses Heartbeat alerts to verify
the status forwarding path from each remote system.
- The Missing Heartbeat Delay specifies the time in
seconds that SA z/OS on the NMC focal point will wait for a heartbeat. If this
time expires without receiving the heartbeat, SA z/OS will begin its missing
heartbeat processing for the remote system. For more information see System Automation for z/OS Defining Automation Policy.
- The next section shows the messages captured for the system components.
This section is only displayed when the captured message limit is greater
than zero.
- The WLM Data section shows the WLM capacity information
that SA z/OS uses to place the members of MOVE and SERVER groups on the systems.
This section is displayed only when the WLM querying process is active.
- The Timestamp indicates when WLM was queried.
- SUs Total shows the number of SUs that were available
in the last 10 minutes.
- SUs Used shows the number of SUs that were used
in the last 10 minutes.
- Res. DS=AVAILABLE shows the number of SU-consuming
resources with a desired state of AVAILABLE.
- SUs expected free shows the number of free SUs taking
into account the resources that SA z/OS is about to start or stop.
