The Plex displays

Plex Map display

Using the Plex Map, you can see which systems are active and running BMC AMI Ops products.

The default arrangement displays system image boxes at the top and BMC AMI Ops products at the bottom. Each system image box lists the subsystem areas that are being monitored.

The Plex Map uses the following conventions:

• Green lines indicate active connections.
• Red lines indicate once-active connections that have terminated.
• Yellow lines indicate connections that are late in responding; they will subsequently turn either red or green.

Plex Topology displays

The Plex Topology displays provide detailed, hierarchical views of the relationships between the products and systems in the sysplex.

The Plex Topology displays are as follows:

• Products Plex Topology depicts the relationship between the BMC AMI Ops products running in your sysplex and the systems on which they are running. Each outer leaf node represents a context (product on a target system).
  
  
• Systems Plex Topology depicts the relationship between the systems running in your sysplex and the BMC AMI Ops products running on them. Each outer leaf node represents a context (product on a target system).

The following figure is an example of the Systems Plex Topology in a radial layout:
