IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3

Saving a workspace

You must save a workspace to maintain the changes you make to the workspace properties; otherwise, the changes you have made are lost.

Before you begin

Your user ID requires Workspace Author Mode permission to create and maintain workspaces, including links. If the main toolbar is disabled (except Refresh, Back, Forward and Stop), as well as the split and remove buttons on the view title bar, you do not have this permission.

About this task

Whatever changes you make to the workspace properties, such as adding a view or defining a link, are only temporary. They will be lost when you open another workspace or exit Tivoli Enterprise Portal unless you save the workspace.

The saved workspace is associated with your Tivoli Enterprise Portal user ID. Users with a different ID will not see your changes unless you were in workspace administration mode when you authored them.

Procedure

To save the current workspace, click Save.
To save the current workspace as a new workspace and leave the original unchanged, click File > Save Workspace As, type a name for the new workspace, check any of the workspace options that you want to apply, and click OK. The workspace is saved with the name and options you specify, and is available to all systems with items of the same type. For example, if you create a new workspace for your Windows agent then all systems with that monitoring agent will be able to open the new workspace.
