Distributed alarms


This section describes the alarms that are distributed with MainView for CICS and includes the following section:

MainView for CICS distributes a set of alarms that use pre-defined threshold values. After you have implemented the alarms, you can easily modify the alarms to operate on user-defined threshold values. For more information about alarms, see the section about using distributed alarms in Using MainView Alarm Management.
