IBM Tivoli Monitoring: Windows OS Agent includes three types of predefined situations:
Activated at startup predefined situations. These situations are automatically installed, distributed, assigned to a managed object, and started.
Bottleneck analysis predefined situations (described below). These situations are designed specifically to help you to isolate areas of your system that are contributing to bottleneck conditions. These situations are automatically installed, but not activated at startup.
Predefined situations that are automatically installed, but not activated at startup. They must be distributed, added to a managed object, and started.
