Discrete Object Thresholds (DOTs)
To display domain and subdomain statistics, each entity has its own command. To
display information about disks, use the ASAP DISK command; for processes, use the
ASAP PROCESS command; and so on. For detailed descriptions of these commands,
see the ASAP Server Manual. As illustrated here, the ASAP commands have the same
names as their respective entities.
Discrete Object Thresholds (DOTs)
Discrete Object Thresholds (DOTs) let you specify the domains to monitor and the
objectives for attributes of these domains.
Each domain or subdomain can have one or more objectives. Objectives are thresholds,
upper or lower bound, that must be met, or the availability of the domain is not met. You
can set one or more objectives on one or more attributes of each domain. DOTs also let
you specify whether to generate EMS events, their type, and their frequency.
For DOTs examples for each entity, see Appendix A, ASAP Examples
.
Entity Definition Language (EDL)
ASAP Client, Server, and Extension components incorporate an Entity Definition
Language (EDL) that provides extensible definition of abstract entities and attributes as
they relate to ASAP features and functions. EDL lets system entities, customer
application domains, and third-party entities be defined outside the ASAP environment.
EDL is used by software developers; ASAP users do not need to understand EDL.
