Monitoring Tape Management status

This topic introduces the workspaces that monitor the status of DFSMSrmm and CA1 resources. You access these workspaces through Tape Management Status node in the Tivoli® Enterprise Portal.

See Workspaces for general information on predefined workspaces and a list of all nodes that are included in the OMEGAMON for Storage on z/OS product. Each node corresponds to a specific area of storage resource monitoring. And each node includes links to a unique set of storage resource workspaces. See Accessing workspaces to learn about navigating among workspaces. And see Integration with other products to learn about linking to the workspaces of other IBM Tivoli Monitoring products.

Navigating the workspaces of the Tape Management Status node

This section summarizes the workspace links that are available through the Navigator node. Depending on your monitoring goal, you follow a specific series of links to get detailed information about storage resources. See Accessing workspaces to learn more about navigating from workspace to workspace.

You access the primary workspaces of this node as follows:

Click the node in the Tivoli Enterprise Portal. The node is activated and the first workspace is displayed in the portal.
Right-click the node to display the pop-up menu.
Select the Workspace submenu to see a list of the available linked workspaces. These linked workspaces, in turn, link to many other, related workspaces.

You can access the workspaces using the standard path and method for navigating workspaces.
