On behalf of the SYSVIEW product team, we are pleased to announce that the SYSVIEW Base Product is enhanced. It provides you with SYSVIEW command intelligence, new and enhanced commands, and an improved process for diagnosing failed Event Capture requests. The enhancements are delivered to you in Feature PTF LU17262.
The following list summarizes the enhancements.
- SYSVIEW Command Intelligence: SYSVIEW can now detect when you specify an invalid primary SYSVIEW command and suggest alternative, valid commands.
- New Commands:
- ACCLIST: Displays a list of Alert Central Connector (ACC) instances that are active since the last IPL. It helps you determine the status and attributes about ACC instances on the system.
- DIAGINFO: Displays information obtained from the IBM Diagnostic Traps Indicator data area (DGNB). It helps you determine the diagnostic traps, GET Storage/FREE Storage (GSF) trace options, and Auto-IPL options that are enabled on the system.
- Enhanced Commands:
- GRAPH: Contains new data fields that help the command function as a data API.
- SYSTEMS: Contains new data fields that let you view the time zones on systems that have CAICCI cross-system connections to more than one sysplex.
- Diagnosing Failed Event Capture Requests: The EVENT_CAPTURE audit event now records an entry to the AUDITLOG that helps you troubleshoot failed capture requests using the audit event.
For a detailed description of the enhancements that this PTF delivers, see New Features in the SYSVIEW Performance Management documentation and New Features in the SYSVIEW Essentials documentation.
NOTE: The DIAGINFO command enhancement does not apply to SYSVIEW Essentials configurations of SYSVIEW Performance Management.
We value your business and thank you for using SYSVIEW!
