The following table describes the properties displayed for a managed OS 2200 system. Use this table to help you interpret data when monitoring and managing these systems.
Property | Disconnected |
Default Action | The action that is initiated when you double-click the OS 2200 system or press Enter while it is selected in a table or topology. |
Identifier | The name of the system preceded by the names of the objects that contain it. For example, the identifier of a system in a server is <server> . <system> |
Image | The image that represents the system in a topology. |
Name | The name by which the system is known within Operations Sentinel. The name is used in alerts and log files to identify the system; it is also the image label for the system in a topology. |
Server | The ClearPath Plus Server Dorado Series server the system belongs to, if any. |
System Type | The type of system. In this case, the value is always OS 2200. |
Tag | A property that your site uses however it chooses. It is often used as an identifier to make filtering of managed objects easier. |
Exec Level | The identification level of the Exec running the system. |
External Network Name | The Internet name of the system. The external network name is made available to external applications launched for the system. Typically, the external network name is the same as name of the system. |
Command Security | The level of security access for the submission of commands to the system through command event reports. The value is one of the following:

OS 2200 System Parameters
There are several OS 2200 system parameters that you can monitor that are included in the details pane for an OS 2200 system. These parameters are from the continuous display of consoles associated with the system.
The following table describes the OS 2200 parameters shown in the details pane. Each of these read-only parameters raises an alert if it satisfies the threshold condition set for it by the Operations Sentinel administrator.
Parameter | Alert Identifier | Definition |
A Hold | _OSAHold | If true, all batch runs in backlog are held (A hold). The hold is caused by a CS H keyin or because the mass storage limit for the system has been reached. |
D Hold | _OSDHold | If true, the system has a hold on new demand runs (D hold). The hold is caused by a CS HD keyin. |
E Hold | _OSExpoolHold | If true, EXPOOL space on the system is low (E hold). Insufficient EXPOOL space is available to open additional runs. |
I Hold | _OSIHold | If true, the system has a one or more runs suspended (I hold). The hold is caused by an SP run-id keyin. |
L Hold | _OSLHold | If true, the system has a hold on new demand terminals (L hold). The hold is caused by a CS HT keyin. |
M Hold | _OSMSHold | If true, the system has a mass storage hold (M hold). Mass storage facilities or cataloged files are not available on the system. |
O Hold | _OSMessageHold | If true, the system has at least one outstanding read-and-replay message for an onsite or remote console. |
R Hold | _OSRHold | If true, one or more runs on the system is being held due to a CS H keyin. |
T Hold | _OSTapeHold | If true, the system has a tape hold (T hold). Tape or other peripheral facilities are not available. This includes tape units, removable disk units, reel-ids, ACS queries, and facilities other than mass storage space and cataloged mass storage files. |
Holds | _OSHolds | Includes a letter that represents each reason that runs are being held on the system, such as T for tape unit availability. For example, if EXPOOL space on the system is low, and there is an outstanding read-and-reply message, but no other holds, the value of Holds is EO. |
Batch IP | _OSBatchIP | The percentage of IP SUPs being used by user programs using batch and deadline batch processing. |
Demand IP | _OSDemandIP | The percentage of IP SUPs being used by user programs using demand processing. |
Realtime IP | _OSRealTimeIP | The percentage of IP SUPs being used by real-time programs. |
TIP IP | _OSTipIP | The percentage of IP SUPs being used by user programs using TIP. |
E11 | _OSExpoolAlarm | The number of EXPOOL index 011-size (512-word) buffers available on the system. |
EXPOOL Available | _OSExpoolAlarm | The number of words of EXPOOL available on the system. This number is displayed in thousands; for example, 102 for 102,000 words. |
EXPOOL Pertcentage | _OSExpoolAlarm | The percentage of EXPOOL available. |
KMS Available | _OSMSAvailable | The number of tracks of available mass storage in the local directory. This number is displayed in thousands; for example, 10000 for 10,000,000 tracks. Shared mass storage is not included. |
KW MEM Available | _OSMemoryAvail | The amount of user memory available, in words. This property is not reported for Dorado 400 Series systems. This number is displayed in millions; for example, 55 for 55,000,000 words. |
Mem Swapfile % | _OSMemSwapfile | The percentage of the swapfile in use. This property is reported only for Dorado 400 Series systems. |
Page IO | _OSPageIOs | The number of page swap actions performed in the past minute. |
Physical Mem % | _OSPhysicalMem | The percentage of physical memory in use. This property is reported only for Dorado 400 Series systems. |
Backlog | _OSBacklog | The number of runs in backlog. |
Batch Open | _OSBatchOpen | The number of open batch runs and the number of batch runs in main storage. |
Demand Open | _OSDemandOpen | The number of open demand runs and the number of demand runs in main storage. |
Idle | _OSIdle | Indicates whether a user program has been executed during the last 6 seconds. A value of True indicates a user program has not been executed in the last 6 seconds. |
Active Transactions | _OSActiveTxn | The number of transaction processing (TIP) requests currently active. Stuck programs are not included in this count. |
Queued Transactions | _OSQueuedTxns | The number of TIP requests that are waiting to become active. |
Transaction Rate | _OSTxnRate | The TIP rate measured in transactions per second. |
