Identifying jobs for monitoring

To monitor an operation using Tivoli Enterprise Portal, set the EXTERNAL MONITOR job option of an operation to YES. You can modify this option in the application description database and in the current plan. You can use one of the following interfaces to set or browse the option:
  • ISPF panels
  • The Scheduler programming interface
  • Dynamic Workload Console
By default, jobs are not monitored.

You can also configure job monitoring so that jobs are automatically flagged as "monitored". You do this by establishing a monitoring policy. Use the MONPOL statement to automatically select jobs to be monitored.
