Analysis point monitoring (APM)

CICSPlex® SM’s analysis point monitoring (APM) function is the same as its MRM function, except that when resources are monitored in multiple CICS® systems (a CICS system group or an entire CICSplex), the occurrence of the same problem in any number of those CICS systems can result in one external notification rather than several. APM is especially useful in environments that use cloned AORs, where regions are identical and one notification is sufficient to alert you to a general problem. APM does not support the use of status probes for monitoring non-CICS resources. In all other respects, however, APM offers the same opportunities as MRM for early detection of potential problems, and for an automated response in such situations.
