Configuring IP Resource Monitoring › IP Resource Definitions

IP Resource Definitions

The IP resource definition is attached to the system image and monitoring is activated when the system image is loaded.

Note: A system image is a collection of resources. System images have unique names, generally the system ID and a version number, for example, SYS1-0001. Only one system image is loaded by a CA NetMaster NM for TCP/IP region at one time. For more information about system images, see the Administration Guide.

IP resource definitions are qualified by the following:

• The system image name and version
• The resource name and class

The IP resource classes are as follows:

APPN/HPR

Defines APPN/HPR.

ASMON

Defines an Address Space Monitor.

Note: You can define an external Telnet server using this option.

CIP

Defines a Cisco Channel card.

CSM

Defines a Communication Storage Manager.

EE

Defines an Enterprise Extender.

OSA

Defines an Open Systems Adapter.

ROUTER

Defines an IBM 2216 Routers.

STACK

Defines a TCP/IP Stack.

VIPA

Defines a Virtual IP Address.

Note: If you set the field Create VIPA Resources to YES when you create a STACK resource, a VIPA resource is created automatically for each active dynamic VIPA when the system image is loaded. To define the way in which the VIPA resource is created, you can apply a VIPA resource template. The VIPA resource is built from a template. To change the way in which the VIPA resource is created, you can modify the default VIPA resource template, or create a new one. For more information about resource templates, see the Administration Guide.
