Tivoli OMEGAMON XE for Mainframe Networks

Business benefits

Features Advantages Benefits
Gives you the power to monitor VTAM and TCP/IP Allows you to manage VTAM sessions and the TCP/IP connection from a single integrated interface Enables you quickly identify the source of network problems within VTAM and TCP/IP networks
Network traffic load and potential bottlenecks are revealed through information about application connections, ports, packet size and volume Provides detailed analysis of TCP/IP connections that are slow, unstable, or down Helps identify whether network slowdowns are hardware-related or within the TCP/IP stack
Monitors VTAM buffer pools, virtual route analysis and NCP performance Easily detect specific problems or resources Identify areas that may reduce TCP/IP throughput, such as FTP downloads
Measures application throughput rate and be alerted if it increases over the baseline Immediately detect retransmissions that may signify a problem in the network Built-in capabilities designed to allow you to proactively detect and resolve application or performance problems
Measures transaction round-trip time, round-trip variance time, and other key metrics Provides a picture of the end-user performance Helps you determine whether the TCP/IP connections are the cause of application performance degradations
Measures IP in-and-out discards, reassemblies, fragmentation, and many other key TCP/IP metrics Reveals where data is potentially lost or slow, or resources such as CPU or bandwidth are drained Designed to enable you to take quick action to manage or boost customer satisfaction
Displays information for each TCP/IP connection, such as the name of the local application using the connection and foreign and local socket addresses View key metrics, such as the name of the local application using the connection and foreign and local socket addresses Helps determine the cause of network congestion, whether hostor route-related
Fully integrated with other OMEGAMON zSeries system management solutions View TCP/IP or VTAM information and metrics alongside your CICS, DB2, IMS and other important systems to quickly diagnose problems and inform application stakeholders Measuring actual service to end users can help ensure that decisions are made to maximize business impact

New V4.1.0 Release!

IBM Tivoli OMEGAMON XE for Mainframe Networks allows you to be proactive in monitoring and managing network performance of z/OS system resources and critical applications. OMEGAMON XE for Mainframe Networks collects network performance data across z/OS systems, whether its TCP/IP resources, SNA resources, or a combination of both, and presents the information in the Tivoli Enterprise Portal (TEP)

When a network performance problem or potential problem occurs, alerts are raised by OMEGAMON XE for Mainframe Networks or sent to event managing solutions such as IBM Tivoli Event Console or IBM NetView for z/OS. For example, Tivoli OMEGAMON XE for Mainframe Networks will analyze network performance among CICS, DB2, IMS and other key systems to identify resource loss and unstable connections, helping your business maintain availability and performance you need to achieve business service levels.

New Dynamic Workspace Linking (DWL) allows you to easily navigate between Tivoli Enterprise Portal workspaces. The advanced linking of DWL aids problem determination, improves integration across your monitoring solutions, and allows you to quickly determine the root cause of a problem. Predefined cross-product links provided by the OMEGAMON XE products allow you to obtain additional information about systems, subsystems, resources or network components that are being monitored and managed.

Product Highlights

  • Key reporting enhancements on Enterprise Extender (EE) and High Performance Router (HPR) connections (whether they flow over Enterprise Extender connections or not)
  • New performance metrics for VTAM buffer pool and address space workspaces as well as SNA available in the Tivoli Enterprise Portal (TEP)
  • Enhanced FTP records as provided by the z/OS Communications Server Network Management Interface for improved performance
  • New TN3270 server session workspaces provide performance and availability metrics for systems running z/OS version 1.8
  • Advanced historical reporting using both new Tivoli Enterprise Portal workspaces and raw SQL queries against the Tivoli Data Warehouse database
  • Dynamic Workspace Links (DWL) to NetView on z/OS, OMEGAMON XE on z/OS and OMEGAMON XE on for CICS for greater integration and improved problem correlation and resolution

OMEGAMON XE for Mainframe Networks V4.1.0 is fully globalized and translated into group one languages.
