Chapter 4 Modifying IPM Components
Working With Collectors
Viewing a List of Defined Collectors
All of the defined collectors are listed in the IPM Main Window (Figure 2-2). Any collectors with start
dates and times earlier than the current date and time, and end dates and times later than the current date
and time, are considered active collectors.
The following status information appears about each collector in the IPM Main Window:
• Collector name
• Source
• Target
• Operation
• Start Time
• Duration
• Type
• Status
You can sort the collector information displayed in the IPM Main Window by clicking on the column
titles. By default, the information is sorted based on collector name. Optionally, you can sort the
information based on start time, target, or operation type.
Viewing a Collector State Summary
To view a summary of the number of collectors on the server, broken down by current state (Running,
Expired, and so on), select View > Collector State Summary from the IPM Main Window. The
Collector State Summary window (Figure 4-5) appears.
For information about these fields, see the “Collector State Summary Window” topic in the online help.
