IBM Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus, Version 7.4

Monitoring TADDM events in the Web GUI

TADDM events are generated within IBM Tivoli Application Dependency Discovery Manager when a configuration change is detected in your IT environment. You can monitor TADDM events from the Web GUI if your system is configured to support this feature.

About this task

A TADDM filter is available in your Active Event List for filtering TADDM events; to use this filter, select TADDM from the Filters list. You can also identify TADDM events in the Active Event List by sorting on the Class column, if this column is available in your current view. By default, the entry is Tivoli Application Dependency Discovery Manager, although this can be changed by your system administrator.

TADDM events have an Indeterminate severity level by default.

From the Active Event List, you can launch across to the TADDM Java™ console or Web client to view further details about the configuration items for which alerts have been raised:

Procedure

To view all the attribute details for a configuration item from within the TADDM Java console, right-click a TADDM event in the Active Event List, and then click TADDM > Config Item Details (console) from the pop-up menu.
To view all the attribute details for a configuration item from within the TADDM Web client, right-click a TADDM event in the Active Event List, and then click TADDM > Config Item Details (web) from the pop-up menu.
To view a change history report for a configuration item from within the TADDM Java console, right-click a TADDM event in the Active Event List, and then click TADDM > Change History (console) from the pop-up menu.
To view a change history report for a configuration item from within the TADDM Web client, right-click a TADDM event in the Active Event List, and then click TADDM > Change History (web) from the pop-up menu.
