Manage samplers

A sampler makes observations of the state of one or more target IMS subsystems. Samplings are taken 24 hours a day, two times a second by default or as defined by user-specified sampler parameters.

The observations are accumulated to provide a projection of the continuous state of IMS subsystems and are displayed in views.

There are the following types of samplers:

  • CORT (components of transaction response time) samplers observe transaction processing states.

  • Workflow samplers observe region usage, resource consumption, and processing throughput.
