Character-Cell Display Functions
The Performance Manager character-cell displays gather and present
performance data using a video terminal. Some displays are available on
terminals that support DEC_CRT characteristics, such as the VT100. Use the
SET TERMINAL/DEC_CRT command to set characteristics for these terminals.
Other displays are available only for ReGIS-compatible terminals, such as the
VT340. If the terminal supports color, or if an external color monitor is
attached, a multicolored display is generated. The display can also be printed
on a graphics dot matrix printer.
Prerequisites
The Performance Manager character-cell displays have the following
mandatory software and hardware requirements:
■
For real-time remote data collection (/MODE=NETWORK command), see
the discussion about establishing remote access in the Performance Agent
Administrator Guide.
■
For file access (/MODE=DISKFILE command), SYSLCK privilege is
