Omegamon to display CPU utilization relative to weight

Would be possible to include on Omegamon for z/OS (e3270gui/TOM), a panel with a clear display of percentage CPU utilization by each LPAR relative to the CEC capacity (all partitions stack to a total of 100%) and the percentage relative to the LPA...

Omegamon to show memory CEC Capacity

Would be possible to include on Omegamon for z/OS (e3270gui/TOM), the total existent memory amount (capacity) for the CEC ? For example: CEC1 has 1TB of memory, where LPAR-A is allocating 256 GB and LPAR-B is allocating 256GB. In this case we woul...

Omegamon to display (VFM) Virtual Flash Memory on CEC level

Would be possible to include on Omegamon for z/OS (e3270gui/TOM), the total existent Virtual Flash Memory (VFM) amount for the CEC ? A panel sumarizing the capacity, and the allocation for each LPAR. For example: CEC1 has 1TB of VFM, where LPAR-A ...

Sysplex proxy designation in a larger Omegamon environment

An Omegamon RTEMS requirement is that the Plexview and Sysplex proxy TEMS should be at the highest maintenance level in the z/OS Sysplex environment. But because the first RTEMS available in a Sysplex is automatically made the Sysplex (and possibl...

LOGICAL PROCESSORS EFFECTIVE value to be reported by Omegamon

My Team receive alerts when CF CPU Busy times reaches a determined threshold. After Upgrade from z12 to z14, with option DYNDISP=THIN, we noticed a very considerable increase in the CPU consumption of shared CF processor.With THIN option, processo...

Change KCIPARSE to use the Configuration Manager RTEDEF defined variables

When using RTE_SYSV_SYSVAR_FLAG=Y , variables can be defined as System variable, or they may be defined in the RTEDEF(VAR$GLOB) and/or RTEDEF(VAR$lpar) members. When running the Configuration Manager (CM) GENERATE action, variables defined by the ...

Select CICS Task History for a range of regions simultaneously.

Seeing the behaviour of a transaction in all CICS regions where it executes as opposed to one region at a time would simplify certain monitoring and trouble-shooting tasks. Being able to specify additional contexts for CICS Task History Summary - ...

Export Omegamon/CICS Trace to file or sysout

The transaction TRACE in only available to consult using history option using 3270 screen. It would be good to save the TRACE and send it to the develoment team to analise the sequence of the programs and commands because they do not have access t...

Transaction Level data to ODP

We would like to be able to stream transaction level detail from Omegamon to ELK via ODP. Equivalent functionality currently exists in the Omegamon for CICS product. We ideally would like "summary" data from each UOW including Processing time, arr...
