Chapter 7: Real-Time Reporting

 < Day Day Up > 



This chapter introduces the various reporting options available in IBM Tivoli Monitoring for Transaction Performance Version 5.2, both real time and historical. Later chapters build on the information introduced here in order to show real e-business transaction performance troubleshooting techniques using TMTP.

7.1 Reporting overview

The focus of IBM Tivoli Monitoring for Transaction Performance reporting is to help pinpoint problems with transactions defined in monitoring policies by showing how each subtransaction relates in the overall transaction, and how those transactions compare against each other. Two main avenues are provided for viewing the data, from the Big Board, with its associated topologies and line charts, through the General Reports link, which offers additional line charts and tables. The Big Board is greatly expanded from the Big Board in 5.1 and includes access to much more data and provides greater interactivity. The primary report is the Topology View, which shows the path of a transaction throughout the system. The other reports provide additional context and comparison to the transactions behavior.
