OEM Property Sheet
To change the color associated with a state, select the colored state name in the
colored states area on the right side of the control panel. A color palette for the
selected state appears. Select the color you want to associate with the state. To apply
icon and color changes, click OK or Apply.
For more information about configuring your own icons and colors, click the Help
button on the Icon Server control panel.
OEM Property Sheet
The OEM property sheet controls how ASAP nodes, entities, and objects are displayed
in the Open Enterprise Management (OEM) gateway. Also use this property sheet to
control the display of availability and performance icons.
Enable the OEM gateway when you want an enterprise management gateway view of
nodes, entities, and objects known to ASAP. When you select an entity or object in the
OEM framework, ASAP reports on the selected node, entity, or object.
Performance utilization and alert icons representing the relative state of nodes, entities,
and objects can also be displayed in the OEM. Icons are automatically propagated
upward through the OEM hierarchy. This propagation algorithm ensures that even
when the OEM hierarchy is collapsed, the highest alerts for nodes, entities, or objects
are visible.
Open Enterprise Management Check Box
The Open Enterprise Management check box lets you display ASAP node, entity, and
object performance information in the OEM gateway.
To enable the ASAP interface to the enterprise management gateway, check the Open
Enterprise Management check box. When the OEM interface is active, you can access
ASAP information from the OEM framework.
When you request information about an entity or object in the OEM framework, ASAP
displays detailed information for the selected entity or object.
Show Context Values as Percentage Check Box
Select the Show Context Values as Percent of Graph-Max check box to display values
as a percentage in the OEM Context field.
When this option is selected, statistics are displayed in the OEM Context field as a
percent of the Graph-Max value for the most used attribute of each object. You can
control Graph-Max values by selecting the Attribute Tab of the ASAP Properties
window.
If this check box is not checked, Context values are displayed as raw values.
For example, if the Queue attribute of the CPU entity has a Graph-Max value setting of
10, and a CPU has a Queue of 10, ASAP reports the OEM Context for that CPU as
