Known ENQ conflict overrides possible other important conflicts in LPAR overview

we are running a z/OS sysplex with 2 systems. There a software uses an ENQ mechanism to control that only one instance of a STC is active. Since this ENQ is activated while IPL, it's always the one with the longest possible enqueue wait time, but ...

Enabel the EPILOG in OMEGAMON z/OS in the future

Hi support, In the PID - 5698-T01 , the lastest version in OM-z/OS V550, withdrew the EPILOG support from V530. In the document, the alternately method - RMF III near term history is instead. But we found the RMF III report only get the SYSTEM lev...

RMF CPC Report Retrieval Reliabilty Improvements

To obtain CPC-level metrics for all LPARs running on a CPC the OMEGAMON PlexView agent KM5PDAG issues a system level query that drives a system level agent (KM5LDAG) on an RTEMS selected from an internally built list of all M5 RTEMSs running on th...

Have Omegamon for z/OS show JES2 spool details for multiple JES2 subsystems

We have a number of LPARs running more than one JES2 subsystem. Currently we can only setup alerts (example: Spool reaching x% full) for the primary JES2 subsystem. The other JES2 subsystem(s) are invisible in Omegamon for z/OS and so no alert can...
