Assuring performance now and into the future
Server Operation Management

Monitoring performance of operating systems and applications around-the-clock

The operating systems, databases, and applications on the distributed UNIX® or Windows® systems can be managed in an integrated manner. Accumulated operational data is stored over a long time, and can be valuable information when considering new investments in additional system resources.

Templates get you started monitoring right away

Collect performance data from each of your servers and databases. Predefined templates are included as standard, allowing you to configure how to notify an administrator if any of the data collected exceeds a danger or warning threshold. Predefined templates for setting the administrator report display format are also included as standard. Therefore you can start operation immediately after installation. And you can customise these templates according to your environment.

Automated actions in conjunction with detection of potential problems

Alarm monitoring automatically sends e-mail to the system administrator or executes external commands to keep problems from occurring before the system is put in danger. Even though the system shutdown occurs, the downtime can be minimised.

Support from problem identification to solution

Collected operational data contains plentiful information useful for identifying the location or cause of failure. The failed resource or application is identified in an analysis based on this information to determine a solution.

Easy confirmation of correctness of system operation

The system operation conditions after starting normal operations can be viewed with reference to the benchmark values (baseline) set during stable system operation, for example, in the test phase. This makes it easy to determine whether the system is operating properly.

Accurate comprehension of multifaceted performance information

You can collect performance data for the entire system, from two perspectives: that of the Internet-service user, and of the system administrator. Analysis based on multiple data types allows you to ascertain operating status accurately and concretely.

Proactive management to forestall potential problems

Proactive management is to help detect potential problems in the system. Locations containing potential problems can be found out by means of a variety of analysing techniques, enhancing the accuracy of capacity planning and allowing selective tuning and reinforcement of necessary locations.

Effective management of operational information over a long period

The system backup load is decreased with the backup of operation information of only altered data after a specified period of time. This allows only the data needed to be imported from the backup information and viewed, improving the efficiency of managing huge amounts of operational information.
