You can save and reuse a view that contains a set resource-monitors
assembled in the Selected Resources pane of the Resource Monitor window. This
user-defined view appears as a child entry of the Resource Monitors task.
Complete the following steps to save a resource-monitor view:
- In the IBM® Director Console window, click a managed system or
group in the Managed Objects pane.
- Click
- In the Resource Monitors window, in the Available Resources pane,
contains a list of monitors. The types of monitoring categories that are available
depends on the management agent that is installed. Expand on a root category
to view the categories of monitors. If a system is either CIM-enabled or DMI-enabled,
a subattribute of IBM Director Agent is presented as CIM Monitors or DMI
Monitors, respectively.
- Continue expanding categories until attributes are displayed for
which a resource monitor can be started.
Note: A category might
not contain attributes for these reasons:
- None of the systems you selected for monitoring are online.
- None of the systems you selected for monitoring allow monitor access.
- None of the systems you selected for monitoring provide attributes for
the selected category.
- The response from one or more of the systems contacted did not complete
in the time allowed.
- The folder was opened before all systems had responded to the opening
of the folder's parent category.
- Right-click the attribute that you want to monitor and click Add
to Selected Resource Table to view the data gathered by the selected
monitor.
- Repeats the previous steps for other monitors that you want in
the view.
- Click
- In the Input window, enter the name you want to assign to the view
and click OK.
