For more information about any field in the METRICZ view, place the cursor on the field and press the Help key.

The following table describes the information in each column.

Column

Description

Element Name

Name of the metric

View Count

How many views contain this element

Dynamic Threshold

Whether or not a dynamic threshold has been defined for the element

Field Help Title

Online Help name assigned to the metric

Field Help Text

First 60 characters of the online Help text

Table Name

Table that contains the element

Data Type

Whether the data is character or numeric

Data Length

Defined length of the data

You can use this view to find information about every metric available in a BMC AMI Ops product. You can use the LOCATE command to search the Element Name column by default, or you can issue the LOCATE command on any column to find the particular metric you want to examine and discover which views contain it.

Similarly, you can sort on any column to organize the list of metrics into configurations that are useful for your exploration. For example, by sorting on the Dynamic Threshold column in descending order, you can organize the list to display the metrics that have a defined dynamic threshold.

Additionally, by using filter masks, you can organize the list of metrics to suit your needs. For example, you can set a filter mask on the Table column to return a list of metrics that are contained in any specific table.

The METRICZ view provides the following hyperlinks:

Field

Hyperlink description

Sum by Field Help Title

Hyperlinks to the METRICZT view.

Sum by View Name

Hyperlinks to the METRICZV view.

Dynamic Thresholds Defined

Hyperlinks to the METRICZ view with a filter that shows only elements with a defined Dynamic Threshold.

All Available Metrics

Hyperlinks to the METRICS view.

Element Name

Hyperlinks depending on the value in the View Count column, as follows:

  • If the view count is greater than 1, hyperlinks to the METRICS view, which displays a list of all views within the product that contain the metric.
  • If the view count is 1, hyperlinks to the METRICD view, which breaks down the metric's data in a format optimized for viewing.

Dynamic Threshold

Hyperlinks to Threshold Set Definitions view (THRSETS) and displays the defined threshold for the metric.

Warning

Note

Hyperlink availability depends on whether the metric has a defined dynamic threshold as indicated by YES in the column. If the value is NO, no hyperlink available for the metric.

Field Help Title

Hyperlinks to the Online Help Title for the metric.

Field Help Text

Hyperlinks to the Online Help entry for the metric.
