Generate a global monitoring context when no common source metric exists
You can generate a global monitoring context even when the separate monitoring contexts do not contain a common key. You link the monitoring contexts by mapping a metric associated with the first monitoring context (the source) to a metric associated with the second monitoring context (the target).
- Example of a global monitoring context
Suppose that you are monitoring a number of processes that are part of an overall loan processing scenario. Each process is from a different source (for example, an IBM BPM application or a WebSphere Message Broker flow). Each step in the process has an associated monitoring context, and you can view the metrics for each monitoring context in separate widgets on the dashboard. But you might find it more valuable to group these disparate processes into one global monitoring context so that you can view all metrics of the overall loan processing scenario in a single dashboard widget.- Use the Global Monitoring Context wizard
