The topics in this section provide descriptions of the predefined sysplex-level workspaces and the navigational links between them. The predefined sysplex workspaces help you to determine if there is a problem within a sysplex and, if so, which component of the sysplex is in trouble.
To access the description of a workspace, select its name in the table of contents or select a link in the list of workspaces in Organization of the sysplex workspaces.
Historical data collection for sysplex workspaces
Organization of the sysplex workspaces
Attribute groups used by sysplex-level predefined workspaces
All the sysplex-level workspaces can record history, except the Users Data for CF Structure, GRS Ring Systems Data for Sysplex, and the Members Data for XCF Group workspaces.
For information on historical data collection and reporting, see the Historical Reporting Overview, Historical Reporting, Configure History Data Collection topics in the Tivoli Enterprise Portal help, and the IBM Tivoli Enterprise Portal Administrator's Guide.
The following table shows the organization of the predefined workspaces, beginning with theSysplex Enterprise Overview workspace. From the Sysplex Enterprise Overview workspace you can link to all of the sysplex-level workspaces listed in the Navigator.
A workspace whose name is not preceded by an arrow
can be accessed
directly from the Navigator. A workspace whose name is preceded by an arrow
can only be accessed from the workspace preceding it in the list.
In most cases, a workspace contains data or columns that have similar attributes in an attribute group. The table shows the relationships between the predefined workspaces and the attribute groups. (The workspaces are listed in alphabetical order.)
