You can launch a console that is associated with the system to which an alert applies. This facility is only available if
The alert applies to an OS 2200, UNIX, or Linux system in the open zone.
A console has been configured for the system to which the alert applies.
To launch a console associated with an alert
In the alerts pane, right-click the alert for which you want to launch a console.
A shortcut menu appears.
Point to Console and then click the desired console for the system associated with the alert.
A window to that console opens immediately.
Alternatively, you can open a console using the Tools menu of the Alerts window or the Applications menu in the main Operations Sentinel Console window.
Each time you open a console window, Operations Sentinel writes a message to the SP-EXTAPP log. This message includes the system name, the time you opened the session, your Windows login, and the process id (pid) of Operations Sentinel Console.
