The monitor resource templates you use when you define monitor resources provide sufficient information for you to monitor the resources used by your regions; however, you can customize the defined monitor resources to suit your special requirements.
The supplied templates ensure that your file transfer resources are monitored correctly.
The monitor resource definition comprises the following panels:
Specifies general information about the resource, for example, the operation mode.
Specifies monitoring criteria pertinent to the monitor type, for example, the idle time of a TCP/IP connection.
Specifies rules that react to unsolicited messages. Do not change those rules specified by the template.
Specifies exit processes that are executed as the result of a resource state change. Do not change the information specified by the template. You can add exits, for example, a CA SOLVE:Central exit.

Specifies particulars of the person responsible for the resource.
Extends functions by specifying a user procedure.
