OPSVIEW Control Option › How to View Monitored Resource Information (Option 4.11.2) › Fields on the SSM Resource Status Panel

Fields on the SSM Resource Status Panel

The following describes the fields on the SSM Resource Status panel:

System

For cross-system SQL functions, the name of the remote system, or an asterisk (*) to denote the local system. To select a system from a list of remote systems, enter a question mark (?) in the System field.

SSM Mode

The global processing mode of System State Manager for all monitored resources. The value in this field is the same as the value of the STATEMAN parameter.

Version

The version of System State Manager that is currently defined in the SSMVERSION parameter. Currently, 2 is the only supported version of SSM.

Filtered

Either YES or NO indicating whether filter criteria other than view mode are being used to reduce the number of resources displayed. Filtered is also an ISPF point and shoot field that can be used to issue the FILTER primary command to change the filter criteria.

View

Either ALL or EXCEPTION. The ALL mode causes all resources in a table to be displayed and the EXCEPTION mode causes only those resources whose current and desired states do not match to be displayed. Using EXCEPTION mode results in better performance, because less data displays.

Wait

The number of seconds to wait for remote SQL responses.

Disp

The resource data display mode protects or allows the type over of resource data. The default value is E unless OPSView 0.1 is used to change the default.

B

Browse prohibits all type over changes

V

View allows type over changes with verification

E

Unrestricted type over changes.

Status

A red E or a yellow W when various conditions such as missing prerequisites are detected for a resource. The condition detected is noted in the message field.

Resource Name

The name of the resource.

Current State

The current state of the resource.

Desired State

The desired state of the resource.

Res Mode

The processing mode of the resource. Valid values are ACTIVE, INACTIVE, PASSIVE, and NOPREREQ. If you are unfamiliar with these processing modes, see their description in the User Guide.

Pre Mode

The processing mode of the resource. Valid values are ACTIVE, PREREQ, SUBREQ, and INACTIVE. The prerequisite mode controls whether System State Manager performs full, partial, or no prerequisite checking for this resource.

Ref Mode

The processing mode of the resource. Valid values are ACTIVE, PREREQ, SUBREQ, and INACTIVE. The prerequisite reference mode controls whether this resource can be used as a prerequisite by other resources. Full, partial, or no prerequisite referencing can be specified. If you specify no prerequisite referencing, then System State Manager ignores the reference.

Tng Mode

Either ALWAYS or NEVER. This optional mode controls whether the resource may be displayed on a CA NSM workstation that is running the CA Network and Systems Management System Status Manager CA OPS/MVS Option product.

Action Mode

Any value used for selecting alternate actions. The action mode is a user-designated mode value that can be used to select alternate System State Manager actions for the same state combinations, such as a hot or cold start for JES2.

Message

A value indicating that a warning situation exists for the resource. Values are:

• S=mode-The System State Manager mode is INACTIVE or PASSIVE
• T=mode-The table mode of the resource is INACTIVE or PASSIVE
• R=mode-The resource mode is INACTIVE or PASSIVE
• MPREREQ-The resource has missing prerequisites. Use the P line command to display the status of the missing prerequisites.
• R=MONITOR-Stop or start is being attempted for a resource where the action mode is MONITOR.
• Action Req-The resource is waiting for an action to be taken before starting or stopping
• Transition-The resource is in the process of stopping or starting
• Exception-The current and desired states of the resource do not match
• SSMGA CNTL-The resource's action mode is INACTIVE because it is a movable resource not currently on this system

If multiple warnings exist for a resource, the highest-level warning appears in the Message field.

Resource Type

The type of the resource. A value of UNKNOWN means that System State Manager could not identify the product or subsystem type of the resource, meaning that you probably need to create a rules packet for the subsystem.

Table Name

The name of the resource table to which this resource belongs.

Tbl Mode

The processing mode of the resource table. Valid values are ACTIVE, INACTIVE, NOPREREQ, and PASSIVE. The most restrictive processing mode of System State Manager, resource table, and resource mode is the effective mode of the resource.

Cur Sys

The value of SSM#CURSYS column in the resource table. The value is ‘*’ if the resource is not moveable.

Des Sys

The value of SSM#DESSYS column in the resource table. The value is ‘*’ if the resource is not moveable.

Pri Sys

The value of PRIMARY_SYSTEM column in the resource table. The value is ‘*’ if the resource is not moveable.

AH

The value of AUTOHOME column in the resource table. The value is blank if the column does not exist.

MoveMode

The value of the SSM#MOVMOD column in the resource table.

System List

Lists all of the available alternate systems to which you can move the resource.
