MONINGRP (Monitor definitions in monitor groups)

To display the names of monitor groups, the monitor definitions associated with them, and the time period during which the monitor definitions are to be active, issue the command:

   MONINGRP [mongroup [mondef]]

where:

mongroup
Is a specific or generic name of a monitor group, or a blank or an * (asterisk) for all monitor groups.
mondef
Is a specific or generic name of a monitor definition. If you omit this parameter, the view includes information about all monitor definitions associated with the designated monitor group.

If you do not specify any parameters, the view, as illustrated in Figure 68, includes information about all monitor groups and their associated monitor definitions within the current context.

Action commands and overtype field

Table 43 summarizes the action commands you can use with the MONINGRP view. Table 44 identifies the overtype field you can modify when you use the SET action command.

Table 43. MONINGRP view action commands
Primary command Line command Description
n/a ADD Add an association between a monitor definition and a monitor group, as described in topic Adding a monitor definition to a monitor group.
n/a BRO Browse the association between a monitor definition and a monitor group.

The format of the resulting panel is similar to that shown in Figure 69. The panel fields are not modifiable.

n/a MAP Display a visual map of resource monitoring definitions using the specified group as a starting point.
n/a REM Remove the association between a monitor definition and a monitor group.
n/a SET Change the period definition associated with a monitor definition using an overtype field (see Table 44).
Note:
The value you specified in the Require Set field on the CICSPlex® System Manager entry panel determines whether or not you must use the SET command when you overtype a field.
TEMPMP cmasid n/a Change the temporary maintenance point CMAS to a specific CMAS or display a selection list based on a generic CMAS ID.
n/a UPD Update the association between a monitor definition and a monitor group.

The format of the resulting panel is similar to that shown in Figure 69. You can change the Active Period field.

Table 44. MONINGRP view overtype field
Field name Value
Period Name of a period definition or blank. (Setting the field to blanks causes the monitor definition to be active as long as the CICS® system using that definition is active.)

Hyperlink fields

Table 45 shows the hyperlink fields on the MONINGRP view.

Adding a monitor definition to a monitor group

Figure 69 illustrates the panel produced when you use the add (ADD) line action command from the MONINGRP view.

Figure 69. Adding a monitor definition to a monitor group
 ------------------ Add Monitor Definition to Group for EYUPLX01 ---------------
 COMMAND  ===>
 
  Monitor group name  ===> EYUMOG02    Monitor Group or Generic
 
  Definition name     ===> EYUMOD01    Monitor Definition or Generic
  Active Period       ===> PRIME       Period Definition or Generic
 
 Press Enter to add Definition to Group.
 Type END or CANCEL to cancel without adding.

Provide the following information, as appropriate:

Monitor group name
Specify the name of an existing monitor group.
Definition name
Enter the specific or generic name of an existing monitor definition that is to be associated with the monitor group. If you specify a generic value, a list of valid monitor definitions is displayed.
Active Period
(Optional.) Enter the specific or generic name of a period definition that identifies the range of hours during which the monitor definition is to be active. If you specify a generic value, a list of valid period definitions is displayed.

If the name you specify does not belong to an existing period definition, you can create that period definition later. If you leave this field blank, the monitor definition remains active for as long as the CICS system is running, or until you discard it.

Press Enter to add the monitor definition to the monitor group in the data repository.
