IBM Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus Version 8.1

Monitoring service-affected events in the event list

A service-affected event (SAE) is an alert that warns operators that a critical customer service has been affected by one or more network events. Service-affected events are generated within IBM Tivoli Network Manager IP Edition.

About this task

You can monitor service-affected events from the Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus event list if your system is configured to support this feature.

From the Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus event list, you can monitor service-affected events as follows:

Procedure

To show the underlying events (for example, linkDowns) that are associated with a service-affected event, select the service-affected event, right-click it and then click Show SAE Related Events from the pop-up menu. All the events that are associated with the selected event are displayed in a new window.
To show the service-affected events to which an event (for example, a linkDown) is related, select the event, right-click it and then click Show SAE Related Services from the pop-up menu. A list of all related service-affected events is displayed in a new window. For example, if you selected a linkDown event in the event list, this window displays all the services that are affected by that linkDown event.
