Viewing system status
The System Status screen provides information on your system performance over time.
The System Status screen includes the following tabs:
- KPI Group Status—A breakdown of the current status of each KPI group in each sharing group and subsystem
- Timeline—A timeline of performance of your system and when events occurred
On the KPI Group Status tab you can see a breakdown of the current status of each KPI group for the selected sharing group and for each subsystem in the selected sharing group. The display includes numbers for all KPI groups that are in anomaly state for the selected data sharing group to help you diagnose issues.
A tab is displayed for each data sharing group. Within each tab, the top row represents the data sharing group and each subsequent row represents a subsystem within the data sharing group. The sharing group name and each subsystem name is highlighted with the color that represents its overall status. If the status is unstable, the subsystem group is marked with an ongoing event icon. 
If you mouse over the subsystem name, you can see the name of the associated LPAR.
The subsystem and KPI groups are listed with their status represented by colored icons with numbers, as listed in the legend tab 
on the right side of the screen. The number indicates how long (in minutes) the KPI group has been in a status other than stable or the normalized score for the KPI Group.
If a subsystem restart is detected, affected KPI Groups are marked with a restart icon 
.
Changing the display
You can choose what values to display in the icons. Click the Display button and select one of the following:
- Elapsed Time – numbers in the icons reflect the amount of time since the KPI Groups became unstable
- Current Z-Score – numbers in the icons reflect the current normalized score for the KPI Groups.
The icon for the Display button changes based on your selection. If you select Elapsed Time, it shows 
. If you select Current Z-Score, it shows 
.
Viewing details for a KPI group
You can click on an icon to see details about its status:
Exporting data
To export raw data for the sharing group or a subsystem to a CSV file do the following:
- Click
. - Select the sharing group or an individual subsystem.
- Click
.
The CSV file is downloaded to your browser.
The Timeline tab displays a timeline for that selected data sharing group and all subsystems within the selected data sharing group.
Events and Exceptions are indicated as follows:
- Orange shading indicates an ongoing event.
- Grey shading indicates a closed event.
- A red dot indicates an Exception.
Click on the name of a sharing group or subsystem, or on a shaded event, to drill down and see more details.
The detailed timeline displays a timeline for all Categories and their performance for the selected data sharing group or subsystem. Any time a KPI Group within a category was in an anomaly state, it's indicated by an orange marker on the timeline.

Click on a Category name to expand it and see individual graphs for all of the KPIs in that category.
The green area of the graph represents the normal range. The yellow and red areas of the graph represent anomaly values - values outside the normal range. Mouse over the timeline to see what the Z-Scores were for the KPI Groups at any given time. |

If any Exceptions occurred in the selected subsystem, they are listed in the Exception area.
Move the mouse over an Exception to see the Exception details. |
