Configuring ASAP Entities
Once you establish a host connection through the CSG and the ASAP Host Session is
enabled, ASAP automatically retrieves availability and performance information
periodically. The ASAP update interval is based on the ASAP SET RATE configured on
the host. For example, if the host sample rate is five minutes, the ASAP Client
refreshes itself with host information every five minutes. The actual time of the ASAP
Client update is automatically synchronized with the host update time.
At each sample interval, ASAP retrieves information for the entities configured in the
ASAP Properties window.
To change the selected entities:
1. From the View menu in a Browse or Session window, select Options to open the
ASAP Properties window.
2. Select the Entity property sheet.
3. Select the entities that you want to view. For example:
[ ] App
[x] Cpu
[x] Disk
[ ] Expand
[ ] File
[ ] Node
[x] Process
[ ] Processbusy
[ ] RDF
[ ] Spooler
[ ] System
[ ] Tape
[ ] TMF
Any entities you select must be enabled in your ASAP host configuration. If you
select an entity that is not enabled, ASAP cannot receive information for that entity.
4. At the bottom of the ASAP Properties window, click OK.
