auxiliary storage pool, the user can set the threshold level in the system values, and the system notifies the system operator when that level is reached. Tivoli Data Warehouse This member of the IBM Tivoli Monitoring product family stores Tivoli Monitoring agents' monitoring data in separate relational database tables so you can analyze historical trends using that enterprise-wide data. Reports generated from Tivoli Data Warehouse data provide information about the availability and performance of your monitored environment over different periods of time. Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server The host data-management component for IBM Tivoli Monitoring. It receives and stores data from either the agents or other monitoring servers. Tivoli Enterprise Portal The client component of a Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server. The Tivoli Enterprise Portal provides the graphical user interface into monitoring data collected by the Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server and prepared for user display by the portal server. The Tivoli Enterprise Portal comes in two versions: the desktop client and the browser client. Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server The server you log onto and connect to through the Tivoli Enterprise Portal client. The portal server connects to the hub Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server; it enables retrieval, manipulation, and analysis of data from your enterprise's monitoring agents. Tivoli Enterprise Web Services An open standards-based interface to the monitoring server that uses SOAP requests. Using SOAP, any monitoring agent can be dynamically queried, which means that its performance and availability data can be processed by external applications not a part of IBM Tivoli Monitoring. Tivoli Management Services An integrated, layered architecture consisting of data-access, communication, and presentation components that enable cross-platform operation and integration 282 IBM Tivoli Monitoring: Troubleshooting Guide of enterprise-wide data for systems-management applications. The software foundation that supports the development and operations of the Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server, the Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server and Tivoli Enterprise Portal, and their monitoring agents. Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol An open, portable communications protocol that is the software basis for the Internet. TSO Time Sharing Option, the interactive interface into the z/OS operating system. value of expression A function in a situation condition, query specification, or data view filter or threshold that uses the raw value of an attribute.

A view can be split into two separate, autonomous views. warehouse proxy agent One of the Tivoli Monitoring base agents, the warehouse proxy agent passes data from either a monitoring agent or the Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server to the Tivoli Data Warehouse. This multi-threaded server process can handle concurrent requests from multiple monitoring agents to roll off data from their short-term history files to the data warehouse. WAV file Waveform audio format for storing sound in files, developed jointly by Microsoft and IBM. wildcard An * (asterisk) used to represent any characters that may follow or precede those entered, such as Sys* to find System and SysTray.
