You can work with system monitors to view the metrics and current values being monitored, as well as the top 20 items (jobs, disk units, and so forth) that make up the metric value. You can also work with jobs listed in the monitor (display details, hold, release, and end).
Select the System monitors link to display a list of all your active system monitors (any monitors that are stopped are not shown). If any monitors failed or are triggered, an exclamation point or bell appears next to the monitor.
When you select a monitor, it shows all systems where that monitor is running, and if you select a system, it shows you all metrics in that monitor and the values for the selected system.
Once you see the metric you are interested in, you can select the metric and it shows you the top 20 items that caused that metric value. For example, if you select CPU average, it shows you the top 20 jobs. Or, if you select Disk utilization, it shows you the top 20 disk units.
From the list of jobs, you can also select a job to see details, and you can work with that job by selecting Hold, Release, or End.
You can refresh each page to refresh the list at any time. You can also select Home to display an updated summary page.
Because display size is minimal, the system monitor metric names are shortened. Here is a table that describes what iSeries™ Navigator for Wireless displays:
