Managing Individual SNA Resources › Expand the Network Summary

Expand the Network Summary

Each resource state in the network summary has an input field. You can access additional information about resources by using this input field.

To access more information about resources

1. Tab to the appropriate input field and press Enter.

   Resources of the type and state you selected are displayed.

Refresh Display

When you access this screen, a refresh delay interval displays at the top right. This interval controls how often the screen refreshes.

If display refresh is interfering with your tasks, use the F6 (RefDelay) function key to change the behavior of the display refresh action. If resources are disappearing from your display because of status changes, use the SS action code to create a static list.

Identify the Reason for a Particular Resource Status

The Network Resources panel contains the reason why an SNA resource is in a particular state. If an SNA resource has an unsatisfactory status, check the Reason column to see what has happened.

To display the reason for a resource status, do one of the following:

• Press F11 (Right) until Reason displays
• Enter B (Browse) beside the resource

Example: Reason for a Resource Status

The following example shows the Reason column display. The example indicates that the SOLV11 SNA resource has been reactivated since it was discovered.

Special Display Characters

An asterisk (*) indicates that the SNA resource has a particular status because its parent is inactive.

A plus sign (+) indicates that the SNA resource is in recovery.

Sort Monitored Resources

You can sort the resources by up to four fields.

To sort the monitored resources

1. Enter SORT at the command prompt.

   A message appears listing the fields by which you can sort the resources.

2. Enter the SORT command.

   The results are sorted according to your criteria.
