What Is OMEGAMON XE?

What OMEGAMON XE doesOMEGAMON XE is a suite of Candle® products that monitor and manage system and network applications on a variety of platforms. These products keep track of the availability and performance of all parts of your enterprise from one or more designated workstations, and provide reports you can use to track trends and troubleshoot problems.

How you can use OMEGAMON XEYou can use OMEGAMON XE to

� create situations (conditions to test when monitoring)

� establish performance thresholds, and raise alerts when thresholds are exceeded or values are matched

� trace the causes leading up to an alert

� create and send commands to systems in your managed enterprise by means of the Take Action feature

� create comprehensive reports about system conditions

� define your own queries, using the attributes provided by OMEGAMON XE for IMS, to monitor conditions of particular interest to you.

Components of the OMEGAMON XE platformThe client-server-agent implementation includes

� a client, CandleNet Portal, with a Java-based user interface for viewing and monitoring your enterprise. CandleNet Portal offers two modes of operation: desktop and browser.

� a CandleNet Portal Server that retrieves, manipulates, and analyzes data from the Candle agents in your enterprise

� a CMS, which acts as a collection and control point for alerts received from the agents, and collects their performance and availability data

� Candle monitoring agents installed on the systems or subsystems you want to monitor. These agents collect and distribute data to a CMS. OMEGAMON XE for IMS is such an agent.

OMEGAMON XE featuresThe features listed below are available with CandleNet Portal V190 interface for OMEGAMON XE. If you are using a later version of CandleNet Portal, additional features may be available.

Customized workspaces for each information group

CandleNet Portal retrieves monitoring data at regular intervals and sends the results to the workspace in the form of charts and tables. You can start monitoring activity and system status immediately with the predefined workspaces. With just a few clicks of the mouse, you can tailor your own workspaces to look at specific conditions, display critical threshold values in red, and filter incoming data so you see only what matters.

Workspace views

CandleNet Portal offers a set of views you can use to build and customize workspaces: � Table views display data the Candle monitoring agents

have gathered. You can also display data from ODBC databases.

� Chart views—pie, bar, plot, gauge—also display data from Candle monitoring agents.

� Notepad view opens a simple text editor for writing text that can be saved with the workspace.

� Message log view shows the status of the situations running on your managed network.

� Take action view lets you enter a command or select a predefined command, and execute it on any system in your managed network.

� Terminal view starts a 3270 or 5250 session for working with OS/390 applications.

� Browser view opens the integrated browser.

Linked workspaces

If you often go from one workspace to another, you can build a link between them to speed the transition. You can also build links that originate from a table or from a bar or pie chart, and use relevant data from the source link to determine the link target.

Introducing OMEGAMON XE for IMS 23

What Is OMEGAMON XE?

User-defined queries

Every Candle monitoring agent comes with a set of predefined queries for every attribute group. These queries tell the CMS what monitoring data to retrieve from the agent to display in a chart or table view. You can create your own queries to specify exactly which attributes to retrieve for the table or chart, thus saving valuable resources by retrieving only the data you want and nothing more. For example, you can build a filter into the query to retrieve only those records whose file size is greater than 5 megabytes.

Additionally, you can write SQL queries to ODBC data sources and apply the results to any chart or table. This enables you to show Candle data and data from other sources (such as third-party databases) in a single workspace.

Interaction with systems from your console

The Take Action feature lets you enter a command or select a predefined command, and execute it on any system in your managed network.

Conditional alerts with the Situation editor

You can write comparisons with threshold values that CandleNet Portal tests against monitored data. When it finds a matching value (or one within a range), it displays an indicator to alert you.

User administration

CandleNet Portal provides the user administration feature for adding new user IDs, complete with selectable permissions for the major features and specific managed systems.

What Is OMEGAMON DE?

What OMEGAMON DE doesOMEGAMON DE offers a dashboard view of your enterprise. It gives you a single point of control for managing the resources your business-critical applications rely on, including a range of operating systems, servers, databases, mainframes, and Web components. For example, a typical IT network might have a Web server running on Windows NT, an application server running on UNIX, a database on OS/390, and a transaction processor on CICS on the mainframe. OMEGAMON DE brings all these views together in a single window, so you can see when any component is not working as expected.

OMEGAMON DE featuresOMEGAMON DE V190 provides all the features of CandleNet Portal included with OMEGAMON XE, plus these application integration components. If you are using a later version, additional features may be available.

Multiple applications in one workspace

In one workspace you can build a table or chart with data from one type of monitoring agent, and another table or chart with data from a different agent, showing views from as many different agent types as are included on that branch of the Navigator.

Linking between application workspaces

You can define a link from a workspace associated with one application to the workspace of another.

Graphic view The graphic view lets you place icons of Navigator items on a map or other background graphic, giving you a visual orientation for quick detection of problems anywhere in your monitored enterprise. You can zoom in and you can add such graphics as floor plans and organization charts. Figure 3 on page 26 illustrates a graphic view.

Custom Navigator views

CandleNet Portal comes with the Navigator physical view, which organizes your managed enterprise by operating platform and agent type, and the Navigator business view, which initially shows one Navigator item or, if you have a Candle Management Workstation® (CMW™) installation, a hierarchy of your managed objects. You can also define Navigator views for any logical hierarchy, such as a departmental or site hierarchy.

Event Console view

In a single console, you can see the entire list of alerts that have occurred over a certain period. The Event Console view lists each alert, including such information as the age of the alert, where and when it occurred, and the situation name. The console has a toolbar for filtering the view to show only the alerts you want to see and a pop-up menu for managing alerts.

Universal Agent support

Candle's OMEGAMON Universal Agent is an agent you can configure to monitor any data you collect. It lets you integrate data from virtually any platform and any source, such as custom applications, databases, systems, and subsystems. Your defined data providers are listed in the Navigator, and default workspaces are automatically created for them. As with any other Candle monitoring agent, you can display data from your Universal Agent’s attributes in workspace views and use them in situations for monitoring.

What Is CandleNet Portal?

What Is CandleNet Portal?

What CandleNet Portal doesCandleNet Portal is the interface into your OMEGAMON XE products. In the same way you use your browser home page as a starting point for navigating the Internet, you use CandleNet Portal to get a high-level overview of your network environment. One section of the window displays the Navigator, a tree-like view of your monitored network, with alert icons that appear when problems arise. The rest of the window is filled with views pertinent to the chosen item in the Navigator tree. From the top level or from your home workspace, you can navigate to specific locations to check activity and investigate problems.

Modes of operationCandleNet Portal offers two modes of operation:

� desktop mode, in which the CandleNet Portal client is installed on your workstation and runs as a desktop application.

� browser mode, in which the system administrator installs the CandleNet Portal client on the Web server, and you start CandleNet Portal from your browser. In browser mode, thin client software is downloaded to your system the first time you log on to CandleNet Portal, and thereafter only when there are software updates.

When using CandleNet Portal in browser mode, you can start it from any workstation by entering the URL for the Web server where the browser mode client is installed. Each CandleNet Portal workspace also has a URL, so that you can save the workspace to your Favorites list or specify it as your home page.

Figure 4 on page 28 shows a workspace for the item chosen in the tree. This workspace was designed with bar charts and a table containing critical, warning, and informational thresholds.

Workspaces

32 OMEGAMON XE for IMS User’s Guide, V100

Workspaces

What is a workspace?CandleNet Portal displays information in workspaces. A workspace is the working area of the CandleNet Portal application window and is made up of one or more views. A view is a pane in the workspace, typically a chart or table showing data collected from a Candle monitoring agent, such as the process detail running on the UNIX operating system.

A workspace may be linked to other workspaces. A link may be context-sensitive, whereby you right-click a row in a table or a data series in a chart to link to more detailed information about one of the attributes in the row or data series.

As you select items in the Navigator, the workspace presents views pertinent to your selection. Every workspace has at least one view, and every workspace has a set of properties associated with it. You can customize the workspace by working in the Properties editor to change the style and content of each view. Another way to customize the workspace is to change the type of view or to add views to the workspace.

Predefined workspacesOMEGAMON XE for IMS is shipped with predefined workspaces that you can use as shipped or modify by using the Properties editor. Predefined workspaces make it easy for you to quickly start using OMEGAMON XE for IMS effectively to monitor your environment.

Workspaces, views, and attributesEach table view corresponds to an attribute group and each column of the table corresponds to an individual attribute from the group. Each workspace displays real-time information for many of the attributes. The information is available to you whether or not you are monitoring situations. For more information about attributes, see “Attributes” on page 33.

Introducing OMEGAMON XE for IMS 33

Attributes

Attributes

What are attributes?OMEGAMON XE for IMS gathers data on the managed systems of your network and stores the data as system elements called attributes. You can use these attributes to

� build situations to monitor the performance of the managed systems you are concerned with

� create queries and use the resulting data to build custom views

Related attributes are grouped into attribute groups, or attribute tables. A given table view contains information provided by a single attribute group.

Using attributesTo use attributes effectively, you must first understand their structure.

� An attribute group associates attributes that refer to some unique characteristic of the data being stored.

� An attribute item stores data for a single property of an attribute group.

� The name of each attribute is composed of the attribute’s group name, then a period, then the name of the attribute item.

For example, in the attribute

TRANSACTIONS.Max_Region

Max_Region is an attribute item that indicates the maximum number of regions allowed scheduled for the subject IMS transaction. Attribute item Max_Region is a member of the TRANSACTIONS group.

Attributes

34 OMEGAMON XE for IMS User’s Guide, V100

Using attributes in situationsYou use attributes to create situations that monitor the state of your operating system, database, or application. A situation describes a condition you want to test. When you start a situation, CandleNet Portal compares the values you have assigned for the situation’s attributes with the values collected by OMEGAMON XE for IMS and registers an event if the condition is met. You are alerted to events by indicator icons that appear in the Navigator.

Using attributes in queriesChart and table views use queries to specify which attribute values to request from a Candle monitoring agent. You can use the Query editor to create a new query, modify an existing one, or apply filters and set styles to define the content and appearance of a view based on an existing query.

Situations

Situations

What is a situation?A situation is a logical expression involving one or more system conditions. Situations are used to monitor the condition of systems in your network. You can manage situations from CandleNet Portal by using the Situation editor.

What is a predefined situation?OMEGAMON XE for IMS is shipped with a set of predefined situations that you can use as-is or modify to meet your requirements.

Predefined situations are precoded to check for system conditions common to many enterprises. Using predefined situations can improve the speed with which you can begin using OMEGAMON XE for IMS. You can examine and, if necessary, change the conditions or values being monitored by a predefined situation to those best suited to your enterprise.

Note: Candle suggests that if you choose to modify a predefined situation, you first use CandleNet Portal’s Create another situation function to make a copy of the original situation. This ensures that you can fall back if necessary.

Using situations You manage situations from CandleNet Portal using the Situation editor. Using the Situation editor, you can

� create, edit, or delete a situation

� create another situation identical to the first

� display a situation

� associate a situation with the current Navigator item

� start and stop a situation

� open the event workspace for a situation to investigate the condition that caused the event

Investigating an Event

38 OMEGAMON XE for IMS User’s Guide, V100

Investigating an Event

Event indicator and event workspaceWhen the conditions of a situation have been met, the situation evaluates True, causing an event indicator to appear in the Navigator. You can investigate the cause of an event by opening its workspace.

The event workspace shows two table views, one with the values of the attributes when the situation evaluated True, and the other with the attributes’ current values.

The event workspace can also display a view with any expert advice written by the situation's author. The advice will display as Web text and any links you have defined will be active, or, if the expert advice consisted only of a link to a specific Web page of advice, that Web page is displayed. The take action view also displays in the event workspace so you can send a command to the application started on that system.

Here is an example Navigator with raised event indicators: red indicators for critical conditions and yellow indicators for warnings. If both a warning and a critical condition occur for the same workspace, the indicator always shows the highest level alert.

Investigating an Event

When you see an alert icon overlaying a Navigator icon, open the Event workspace and drill down to investigate the cause of the alert. Here is an example Event workspace for OMEGAMON XE for OS/390 Sysplex.

FIGURE 7. Event Workspace

Looking at this workspace, you can determine the situation that raised the event and the attributes whose values are contributing to the alert. You can also review available advice and take appropriate actions.

AcknowledgmentWhen you see an event indicator in the Navigator, you can create an acknowledgment. An acknowledgment notifies other users that you have taken ownership of the problem related to the event and are working on it. When you acknowledge an event, a blue checkmark appears next to the situation in the event flyover list and, if you opened the event workspace, over

the situation item in the Navigator. If the situation is still true when the acknowledgment expires, the indicator changes accordingly. You can also cancel the acknowledgment before it has expired. This changes the indicator so that users can see that the acknowledgment has been removed even though the situation remains true.
