This workspace is the principal workspace for this node,
and it enables you to monitor both types of virtual tape subsystems,
3494 and 7700.
In a table view, when you right-click the row for a 3494 subsystem,
you see standard (non-7700) options. When you select a 7700 subsystem,
you see only the link to the TS7700 Series Cluster Workspace.
When you click the Virtual Tape Subsystems node in the Navigator
of the Tivoli Enterprise
Portal,
you see the Virtual Tape Subsystems workspace. The main components
of the workspace are as follows:
- Views
- This workspace provides the following views. For a description
of the attributes used as column headings in the workspace table view,
review the attribute group definitions for this workspace in the online
help. The help resource includes attribute descriptions that are displayed
when you hover with the mouse pointer over a column heading.
- Virtual tape subsystems table view
- The table view contains one row of data for virtual tape subsystem.
The view contains the following information:
- The VTS name and library type
- The number of physical drives available
- The number of virtual devices online
- The average and maximum virtual mount pending times
- The virtual disconnect time
- The volume data (in gigabytes) read and written through the host
channels to virtual volumes associated with this VTS
- The recall percent
- Number of scratch volumes, library type, model and serial number
for this VTS
- Volume recall % > 20 bar graph
- This graph contains one bar for each VTS for which the percentage
of virtual mounts to actual physical mounts exceeds 20%. The bar height
indicates the recall percentage.
- Average virtual mount pending time > 300 bar graph
- This graph contains one bar for each VTS for which the average
time spent waiting for a virtual mount exceeded 300 seconds. The height
of the bar indicates the actual time spent waiting.
