The status of an SNA resource is governed by its desired state. The region ensures that the actual state of the resource corresponds to the desired state.
The desired state of an SNA resource is set as follows:
|
If the resource … |
Then the desired state is … |
|---|---|
|
Does not belong to an SNA group or belongs to an SNA group that is not managed automatically |
Based on the discovered resource VTAM state. The state can be changed by VTAM commands. |
|
Belongs to an SNA group that is managed automatically |
Set by the availability requirements of the group. |
The desired states are ACTIVE and INACTIVE.
The initial actual states of discovered SNA resources are derived from the resource VTAM states.
After a resource is discovered, its actual state is determined by the message rules in the associated SNA resource model.
The actual states are as follows:
Indicates that the monitored resource is available for use.
Indicates that the monitored resource is available for use but is not operating in the optimal condition. For example, if the region receives alerts from CA NetSpy, the state indicates that an alert exists currently for the resource.
Indicates that the monitored resource failed and requires manual intervention.
Indicates that the monitored resource is unavailable for use.
Indicates that the monitored resource is being activated.
Indicates that the monitored resource is being inactivated.
Indicates that the region is unable to determine the actual state of the monitored resource.
