IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2

Create an application ID

To create an application definition, follow these steps:

  1. In DCM, click Select a Certificate Store and select the appropriate certificate store. (This should be *SYSTEM certificate store for creating SSL application definition for either a server application or client application.)

  2. When the Certificate Store and Password page displays, provide the password that you specified for the certificate store when you created it and click Continue.

  3. In the navigation frame, select Manage Applications to display a list of tasks.

  4. Select Add application from the task list to display a form for defining the application.

    If you are working in the *SYSTEM certificate store, DCM will prompt you to choose whether to add a server application definition or a client application definition. Choose to create Client application definition for this purpose.

  5. Complete the form and click Add. The information that you can specify for the application definition varies based on the type of application that you are defining. Table 1 lists the current properties for the default Application ID created for the IBM i OS monitoring agent.
