Meaning of the fields:
| Field | Meaning | |
|---|---|---|
| Action | One-character command input field. Possible options: | |
| S | Start Monitor Delay before a monitor restart: Any monitor restart which will be performed earlier than monitor termination time plus three (3) times the monitor wait time is assumed to be a duplicate monitor (task) start. Avoid to restart the monitor within this time interval. |
|
| C | Shut down Monitor. No data is lost. If you are working in z/OS, you can also shut down the Monitor from the operator console by entering the command SHUTDOWN SYSEOR.
|
|
| OpSys Server | Entire System Server internal task name under which Entire Operations Monitor is running. | |
| Task Name | Name of the Monitor main task.
The syntax (explained in
Direct
Command Syntax) is as follows:
{task-prefix}{task-number} Example:
If the task prefix is For further information, see also Monitor Task Prefix. |
|
| Status | Protected field showing current status of the Entire Operations Monitor. | |
| Last active at | Date and time of last Monitor activity. See also Date and Time Formats in the User's Guide. | |
| Wait Time | Interval between Entire Operations Monitor working cycles in seconds. You can modify the Monitor task wait times of the current monitor session individually in the Tasks screen (accessible with PF9). When you start the Monitor, the value is taken from the Monitor Wait Time defined in Monitor Defaults. | |
| Key | Name | Function |
|---|---|---|
| PF9 | Tasks | Displays the Monitor Tasks list. See Display Monitor Task Status. |
If the Entire Operations Monitor is executing on a mainframe, it is possible to check the Monitor status by an operator command to the Monitor node (Entire System Server).
The command is STATUS NOP.
The output of this command is a status line for each Monitor task.
This feature is available with Entire System Server Version 3.4.1 or above.
Refer to the Entire System Server documentation.
If (in the Monitor Defaults) you have defined the Entire Operations Monitor to use several (sub-)tasks, you can display the task status by pressing PF9 (Tasks). The following screen appears:
04.11.08 ***** Entire Operations ***** 13:47:01

Meaning of the column headings:
| Column | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Task | Name of Monitor (sub-)task. For further information, see also Task Names. |

| Started | Time the task was started. |
| Active | Time of last activity. |
| Wait Time | The active monitor task wait
times. This value is modifiable. It can be defined individually for each monitor task. Values changed here are in effect for the current monitor session only.

The default wait time modification (for all monitor sessions) is described in Fields: Monitor Task Profile. |
| Usage | Percentage of task activity within real time, calculated from task start or from the last task reconfiguration. |
