IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2


Convert history files to delimited flat files on z/OS systems

You can convert the short-term history files to delimited flat files on z/OS systems with a manual archiving procedure or as part of your persistent data store maintenance procedures.

The short-term history files can be converted to delimited flat files automatically as part of your persistent data store maintenance procedures, or they can be converted manually with the MODIFY command. The delimited flat file serves as input to applications for data manipulation and report creation. See the IBM Tivoli OMEGAMON XE and Tivoli Management Services on z/OS Common Planning and Configuration

Data that has been collected and stored cannot be extracted because this data is deleted from the persistent data store. To use these conversion procedures, you must have set the Warehouse Interval to Off in the History Collection Configuration window. For more details on the History Collection Configuration window, see the Tivoli Enterprise Portal online help or Create a historical collection in the Tivoli Enterprise Portal User's Guide.
