To confirm details of the job nets on the server to be monitored or to take any action while multi-server monitoring is being executed on the multi-server monitoring client, start up the Systemwalker Operation Manager client on the target server. Multiple Systemwalker Operation Manager clients can be started up simultaneously.
The following describes the procedure. The item numbers in the figure correspond to the steps 1 to 4.
Procedure
Starting up the Systemwalker Operation Manager client on the server to be monitored
Start up the Systemwalker Operation Manager client using the following procedure.
From the host selection tree of the Multi-server Monitoring window
Select the server to be monitored, then select Start Operation Manager Client or Start Operation Manager Client as Specified User from the Tools menu. Or, right-click the server to be monitored and select Start Operation Manager Client or Start Operation Manager Client as Specified User from the pop-up menu.
From the host summary display area of the Multi-server Monitoring window
Select the server to be monitored, then select Start Operation Manager Client or Start Operation Manager Client as Specified User from the Tools menu. Or, right-click the server to be monitored and select Start Operation Manager Client or Start Operation Manager Client as Specified User from the pop-up menu.
If displayed in the subsystem units, it is possible to connect to the subsystem by directly selecting it with a double-click.
From the status message list of the Multi-server Monitoring window
Select the status message, then double-click it or select Start Operation Manager Client or Start Operation Manager Client as Specified User from the Tools menu. Or, right-click the status message and then select Start Operation Manager Client or Start Operation Manager Client as Specified User from the pop-up menu.
From the Job Nets Management window
Select the job net from the job net information list, then double-click or select Monitor Job Net from the Tools menu. Or, select Monitor Job Net from the pop-up menu.
Connecting to the server to be monitored
Connect to the target server to be monitored with the same user ID and password as are used to connect to the monitoring server currently connected to execute authentication.
After authentication, connection to the target server will be established.
The Enter Password of Connected Host window will be displayed. Enter a user ID and password that are permitted on the monitored server to connect to the server.
If Start Operation Manager Client as Specified User is selected, the Enter Password of Connected Host window will appear. Enter an appropriate user ID and password to connect to the target server.
Figure 6.12 Enter Password of Connected Host window
Specify the ID of the user to connect to the server.
Specify the password for the user ID that was specified in the User ID field.
Specifying subsystem connection
If the target server operates multiple subsystems, the Specify Subsystem Connection window will appear after authentication. Specify the subsystem number to connect.
Specifies the subsystem number.
Displaying the Gantt Chart or Monitor Job Net window
If the Systemwalker Operation Manager client is started up from the Multi-server Monitoring window, the Gantt Chart window will appear. If started up from the Job Nets Management window, the Monitor Job Net window will appear.
Investigate the job nets and solve problems if any in these windows.
Information
Second and subsequent connection attempts to a monitored server where the user ID does not match
The user ID and password that are used to connect to the first server after the multi-server monitoring client has started will be saved until the multi-server monitoring client is restarted. Accordingly, for the second and subsequent connections to monitored servers with different user IDs, authentication processing will be performed automatically using the user ID information that has been saved. In this case, the Enter Password of Connected Host window (the above procedure 2) will not appear.
However, if Start Operation Manager Client as Specified User has been selected or the multi-server monitoring client has been restarted, the user ID and password must be entered again.
Information
Displaying the monitored server name
When the Systemwalker Operation Manager client on the monitored server is started from the multi-server monitoring client, the names of the servers (monitored server names) displayed in both windows below may be different:
Name of the monitored server on the multi-server monitoring client's Multi-server Monitoring window
Name of the server displayed as Connected host name: in the monitored server's Systemwalker Operation Manager window
If you wish to make the server names the same, you must match the display names in the respective monitored host definitions on the monitoring server and the monitored server. Refer to "Information - Monitored host definitions when performing multi-server monitoring" in "Defining the Monitored Host in Systemwalker Operation Manager" in the Systemwalker Operation Manager Installation Guide for details.
