Enform
Enform
Enform is a query language service that generates reports. You can use Enform to
generate reports from measurement data, including data collected by Measure.
Event Management Service (EMS)
EMS collects and consolidates event information generated by software subsystems and
routes this information through the network. An event is any normal or abnormal change
in the status of a device, line, or system on the network. For example, events occur when
a job completes, an application stops or starts, or when a transaction aborts. Examples of
subsystems that generate events are Expand, NonStop TS/MP, and NonStop TM/MP.
You can route events to:
•
Other systems in the network.
•
DSM applications such as the TSM EMS Event Viewer.
•
Management applications that respond to the event as required (and thus eliminate
the need for operator intervention in response to events).
EMS allows you to:
•
Collect and view events from one or more locations
•
Print event messages automatically
•
Log events to disk file automatically
Event Management Service Analyzer (EMSA)
EMSA is a system-analysis tool that summarizes system activities, giving operators a
clear picture of conditions. EMSA analyzes the contents of EMS event logs by selecting
certain event messages according to user-defined search parameters. You can base the
search criteria on start time, stop time, event type, event number, subsystem ID, process
ID, system, logical device, and text string. This information can be displayed on
terminals, routed to a printer, or used to generate reports.
File Utility Program (FUP)
FUP is a file-management tool designed to help you manage disk files, nondisk devices
(printers, terminals, and tape drives), and processes on a NonStop system.
FUP software supports Enscribe disk files (key-sequenced, entry-sequenced, relative,
and unstructured—including text files) and provides information about OSS files and
Tandem NonStop SQL/MP files (tables, indexes, partitions, views, and object
programs).
