In general, the "View or Modify Properties Frame" notebook provides
information on relationships between the Enterprise Server and the CWS. On
the other hand, the "View or Modify Properties Node" notebook provides
information on the Enterprise Server itself.
Other than checking configuration information and controlling hardware, the
Hardware Perspective provides you with the ability to monitor system
conditions on the Enterprise Servers.
You can monitor multiple conditions in one pane and see the aggregate
monitoring state. The pane shows you a visual indication of what you are
monitoring. To monitor system conditions, click on one of the Node icons in
the Nodes pane. Then click on the Monitor icon. You can monitor as many
conditions as you want. To monitor the AIX Error Log, the /tmp file system,
and the /var file system, for example, select these three conditions. Then click
on the Apply button.
2. Event Perspective: Create and monitor system events.
Using the Event Perspective, you can create event definitions that let you
know automatically when resource changes that are important to you have
occurred in your CES system. An event is the result of a change in the state
of a resource on your CES system. Examples of resources include Enterprise
Servers, disk drives, memory, software applications, and file systems.
Using the Event Perspective, you can be notified when an Enterprise Server
goes down or becomes unreachable, or when the operating system is close
to running out of paging space, or when there is something else wrong. More
importantly, you can know these things have occurred without having the
Event Perspective running.
There are 20 default event definitions provided. They are shown on
Table 10-4.
