ViewPoint
ViewPoint
Use ViewPoint to display event messages about current or past events occurring
anywhere in the network on a set of block-mode events screens. The messages can
be errors, failures, warnings, and requests for operator actions. The events screens
allow operators to monitor significant occurrences or problems in the network as they
occur. Critical events or events requiring immediate action are highlighted.
ViewSys
ViewSys is a system resource monitor that displays processor performance statistics
and resource consumption for a set polling period. It updates the numbers
automatically at the end of each polling period, which allows you to evaluate the effects
of changes as those changes are made. ViewSys indicates the current allocation of a
given resource and the percentage of that resource used. Thus, possible resource
contention problems can be detected before they become serious.
Viewing the resource allocations across processors on a running system allows you to
balance the application load more evenly. It can help you decide when to move user
processes to processors and disk files that are less busy or when to relocate partitions
to disk volumes that are less busy.
Windows Event Viewer
Use the Windows Event Viewer for monitoring events from the TSM client software and
the Windows environment. See the Windows online help. The Windows Event Viewer
is not used with the OSM client software.
