Resource Overview workspace
The Resource Overview workspace provides
an overview of resources in the sysplex, their state and requests
to them. This workspace displays data provided by the Resource List attribute group and the Resource Requests attribute group.
The predefined workspace contains the following views:
- The Request Summary bar chart shows
the distribution of request types (start vs. stop, winning vs. losing)
across all requests in the SA z/OS subplex. A link is provided to navigate
to the Resource Requests workspace for detailed information about
the requests in the SA z/OS subplex.
- The Compound Status Summary bar
chart shows the distribution of compound states across all resources
in the SA z/OS subplex.
- The Resource List table lists all
resources, the various automation states, and other descriptive information
in the SA z/OS subplex. Links are provided to navigate to the Resource
Details workspace for further details about a particular resource
or to navigate to the Resource Requests workspace for detailed information
about the requests in the SA z/OS subplex.
Filter support
Special filter support exists for the Resource Overview workspace
because this list can be extremely large. Although all filtering is
done on the Tivoli Enterprise Portal (TEP) side, some filters for this workspace are
also implemented on the NetView side. This can help reduce the amount
of data that must be transferred from the automation manager. The following
filters are supported:
- Operand may be equal to or contained in the resource name.
- Operand may be equal to or contained in the resource type.
- Operand may be equal to or contained in the resource system.
- Status may be equal to the compound, observed, or health status and a multiple of such expressions are logically
ORed.
- Status may be not equal to the compound, observed, or health status and a multiple of such expressions are logically
ANDed.
- Combinations of different attributes are only allowed
within a single filter row, that is, the attributes are logically
ANDed.
Examples
Supported and unsupported filters include, for example:
- Supported resource name, type, and system filters:
'*/APL/*'
'*IMS*/APL/KEY*'
'*ABC*/*/*KEY*'
- Supported filters, for example (read Compound_Status for CS, Health_Status
for HS):
(CS=Problem) | (CS=Denied)
(CS<>Satisfactory) & (HS<>Problem)
- Unsupported filters, for example:
(CS=Problem) | ( (CS=Critical) & (HS=Fatal) )
( (ResourceName='*IMS") & (CS=Problem) ) | (CS=Denied)
You can check for successful filtering on the NetView side by setting
Debug on for INGRAHCP or setting global Debug. Supported Tivoli Enterprise Portal (TEP)
query filters are translated to INGRAHCP parameters of the following
form:
resource-pattern [ C compountFlags ] [ O observedFlags ] [ H healthFlags ]
Where
the Flags are strings of readable hexadecimal values.
