Description
Represents the health status of an application for the last polling query.
The health status of an application group is determined by the application with the worst
health status in the group or its subgroup. For more information about the icon to display,
see "3 Monitor management."
Points to a subgroup or application that an application group contains.
Application group management
APM allows you to manage monitored applications in groups and assign management privileges of
groups to different operator groups. By default, all monitored applications belong to the system default
group named ungrouped and all operators can manage applications in ungrouped. Once a monitored
application is assigned to an application group, the application can be managed only by operators who
are granted privileges to manage that application group.
You can add four hierarchy subgroups under a parent group and there is no inheritance relationship
between them. This further, you can view, add, modify, and delete applications.
Viewing the application group list
You can view all application groups in the Application Group List.
To view the application group list:
1. Click the Resource tab.
2. Select Application Manager > Application Group from the navigation tree.
The application group list page displays all application groups.
