Task history collection filters to reduce/control collection.

Task history collection collects records for all task in the region.

We want to be able to filter on what tasks are collected. and only collect the records for

tasks that pass the filters setup for the region.


The filters could be, but not limited to:

USERID

TRANSID

PROGNAME

Abend code(or any abend)

Cpu threshold exceeded

Storage hwm

Getmains

Wait time threshold exceeded (Could be on individual wait types or total wait)

Other counts like db2 calls


These filters should be evaluated as early as possible, preferably in the monitoring agent. The records should only be saved/sent to omegamon for task history collection, if the filters match.

    Hello Peter,
    Thank you for opening this product enhancement request. We have some Task history improvements planned for a PTF later this year. The team would like to discuss this requirement in more detail after this PTF. We will schedule a meeting to review in 1Q2024. Regards Product Management.
