Using the multi-server monitoring client, the Jobscheduler services or daemons operating on multiple Systemwalker Operation Manager servers can be monitored. Certain job nets on monitored servers can be filtered and monitored or executed as a batch. It is also possible to investigate detailed information about the status of job nets on each monitored server. If action needs to be taken, it is possible to connect from the multi-server monitoring client to each monitored server and start the Systemwalker Operation Manager client.
From the client, the entire system can be monitored using the display in the multi-server monitoring client window. At the same time, investigations and actions can be performed from the Systemwalker Operation Manager client windows that are connected to each monitored server.
Multiple tree structures (referred to as "monitored host configuration names") of server groups and monitored servers can be registered.
Monitoring job nets on multiple servers using the multi-server monitoring client is referred to as "multi-server monitoring" or "multiple system monitoring."
The following figure illustrates multi-server monitoring operations.
Job nets for all users of monitored servers can be monitored, either for each separate server or for each separate server group. Administrators can also monitor environments that contain a mixture of Windows and UNIX servers.
When multi-subsystem operations are used, administrators can monitor each subsystem separately.
Whether jobs can be viewed or manipulated in multi-server monitoring depends on the privileges of the users on the monitored servers. Also, these operations are useful for small-scale systems on which only Systemwalker Operation Manager has been installed. For monitoring medium- or large-scale systems, Fujitsu recommends using Systemwalker Centric Manager. For information about monitoring using Systemwalker Centric Manager, refer to "2.11 Linking to Systemwalker Centric Manager."
For information about combining monitoring servers and monitored servers, refer to "A.2 Connection Support for Multi-server Monitoring."
Information
The Zone function supported by Solaris 10 or later allows the following operations to be performed.
Systemwalker Operation Manager operates by regarding each zone as a single server. Using the logical IP addresses that have been assigned to each zone, all of the Jobscheduler daemons running on multiple zones can be monitored together.
