Viewpoints

A Viewpoint is a customizable, dynamic tool, which enables you to display the jobs and job flows of interest. For example, you can view and monitor jobs:

• On a particular Control-M/Server
• Belonging to a specific user
• Having a particular status, such as failed jobs

Viewpoints are constantly updated and show in real-time the execution status of the batch production. Control-M provides a set of predefined Viewpoints. You can define other Viewpoints according to need, as described in Viewpoint management,

After you have set up you Viewpoint, you can do the following:

• Analyze active jobs: Enables you to analyze jobs and manage job flows. You can display and modify the processing details of jobs.
• Perform actions: Enables you to intervene manually when special critical processes, and potentially problematic situations arise.
• Monitoring settings: Enables you to customize Viewpoint settings.

For more information about viewing alerts, services, or further analyze business services, see Alerts Monitor, Service Monitor, Business Service Analysis Viewpoint.
