Viewing the SCO UNIX application monitor report

After an SCO UNIX application monitor is added, APM collects index data of the application, and calculates its availability and health status. You can obtain monitor indexes for SCO UNIX by viewing the monitor report.

To access the SCO UNIX application monitor report:

  1. Click the Resource tab.

  2. From the navigation tree, select Application Manager > Application Monitor.

    The application monitor list page displays all application monitors.

  3. Click the name of an SCO UNIX application monitor to display the report.

    Figure 54 shows part of an SCO UNIX monitor report.

Monitor Information

The Monitor Information area contains the following fields:

Availability Today

The Availability Today area contains the following fields:

The statistics collection started when the application monitor was added. An availability time field is not displayed if its value is 0.

CPU Usage Ratio

The CPU Usage Ratio area contains the following field:

Memory Usage Ratio

The Memory Usage Ratio area displays information about physical memory and swap memory.

The Memory Usage Ratio area contains the following fields:

Ping Test

When the polling interval expires, APM pings the SCO UNIX host by sending up to three ICMP packets. If APM receives a response packet, the ping succeeds and APM records the response time. If APM does not receive a response after sending out three ICMP packets, APM considers that the ping test has failed.

The Ping Test area contains the following fields:

System Load

APM analyzes and displays the system load average for the monitored SCO UNIX application in 1 minute, 5 minutes, and 15 minutes. System load average is the average number of processes running on the SCO UNIX system during a specific time period. Excessive system load can cause performance problems. The thresholds of system load vary by CPU type.

The System Load area contains the following fields:

File System Usage Ratio

The File System Usage Ratio area contains the following fields:

Zombie Process Number

The Zombie Process Number area contains the following field:

Zombie Process Number—Number of zombie processes in the last polling interval. Click the History Record icon to view the history graph of the zombie process number.

Zombie Process

The Zombie Process area contains the following fields:

Application Traffic

APM collects SCO UNIX traffic based on the IP address of the host where the application is located.

The Application Traffic area contains the following fields:

Network Interface

The Network Interface area contains the following fields:

inode

Index nodes (inodes) are required when you create a file or directory in the SCO UNIX file system. If the inodes are used up, you cannot create a file or directory in the file system.

The inode area contains the following fields:

Process

By default, the list does not contain any processes. To monitor a process on SCO UNIX, click the Configuration icon to select the processes to be monitored. APM collects the index data including CPU usage for the monitored processes when APM polls applications next time.

The Process area contains the following fields:

Session Information

The Session Information area displays SCO UNIX session login information.

The Session Information area contains the following fields:

Memory

The Memory area displays memory information for the server where the OS is located. To monitor the memory, make sure the BMC is installed on the server.

The Memory area contains the following fields:

Power Supply

The Power Supply area displays power supply information for the server where the OS is located. To monitor the power supply, make sure the BMC is installed on the server.

The Power Supply area contains the following fields:

Temperature

The Temperature area displays temperature information for the server where the OS is located. To monitor the temperature, make sure the BMC is installed on the server.

The Temperature area contains the following fields:

Fan

The Fan area displays fan information for the server where the OS is located. To monitor the fans, make sure the BMC is installed on the server.

The Fan area contains the following fields:

Board

The Board area displays board information about the server where the OS is located. To monitor the board, make sure the BMC is installed on the server.

The Board area contains the following fields:

Chassis

The Chassis area displays chassis information for the server where the OS is located. To monitor the chassis, make sure the BMC is installed on the server.

The Chassis area contains the following fields:
