<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Sharing</h4><p>When you have a V5R4 GUI and a V5R4 Central
|
||
|
|
system, you can share system monitors and system events. You do this in the
|
||
|
|
same way that you share job monitors, message monitors, and file monitors.
|
||
|
|
You specify the sharing level on the <span class="uicontrol">Sharing</span> tab, which
|
||
|
|
is located on the <span class="uicontrol">Properties</span> window of the monitor.</p>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">System monitor</h4><p>Exclude heavily utilized communication
|
||
|
|
lines, such as fax lines, from the system monitor graph. For example, when
|
||
|
|
you have two communication line utilization metrics, the average of all of
|
||
|
|
the communication lines is plotted. Thus, if there are one or more lines that
|
||
|
|
you do not want to include in the average, such as a line that is heavily
|
||
|
|
loaded because of fax traffic, you can optionally exclude these lines. For
|
||
|
|
instructions on how to do this, use the online help for System Monitors. (From
|
||
|
|
the <span class="uicontrol">System Monitors Properties</span> window click <span class="uicontrol">Help</span>.
|
||
|
|
From the help window click <span class="uicontrol">Help Topics</span>. From the <span class="uicontrol">Management
|
||
