Monitoring Objects
Object Monitoring Facility (OMF)
OMF allows you to supervise objects such as processors, disks, files, and processes
within your Tandem environment. OMF monitors objects for peripherals or subsystems,
according to the object configuration stored in and maintained by OMF. When an object
does not respond to the configured settings, an informative statement, action attention, or
critical event message is routed to an EMS collector. Figure 3-1 illustrates information
available on the OMF General Status Screen.
When combined with the NSX product, OMF provides a network-wide view of the
status of objects in your Tandem environment.
