<div><p><span class="keyword">iSeries™</span> servers
|
|
include powerful applications for managing system performance. However, they
|
|
must be properly configured in order to meet the specific needs of your unique
|
|
business environment. Learn how to configure applications to routinely collect,
|
|
monitor, and analyze performance data.</p>
|
|
<div class="section"><p>The <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> server
|
|
includes several tools that regularly collect system performance data and
|
|
monitor your system for performance trends and potential problems. Your unique
|
|
requirements and environment will determine both the tools you choose to invest
|
|
in and the configuration choices you should make. Effectively setting up your
|
|
system will allow you to do accurate capacity planning as your system grows
|
|
and to resolve performance problems when they occur.</p>
|
|
<p>Use the following
|
|
topics to learn about and configure tools that will collect, monitor, and
|
|
analyze your system performance.</p>
|
|
<dl><dt class="dlterm">Collection Services</dt>
|
|
<dd>Collection Services manages the routine collection of your system performance
|
|
data. This tool regularly collects data and creates archives called collection
|
|
objects. These collection objects may be accessed directly by some tools or
|
|
converted into sets of database files for analysis with your own custom queries
|
|
or by other tools and reports. Because Collection Services mainly provides
|
|
data for other applications, the other tools you are using will significantly
|
|
affect your configuration choices, including how frequently you collect data,
|
|
the types of data you collect, and the length of time you will keep the data
|
|
on your system.</dd>
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">PM <span class="keyword">iSeries</span></dt>
|
|
<dd>PM <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> uses Collection
|
|
Services to gather non-proprietary performance data, and sends it to IBM<sup>®</sup> for storage
|
|
and expert analysis. This eliminates the need to store and maintain it yourself.
|
|
You can then access detailed reports and recommendations about your system's
|
|
performance with a web browser.</dd>
|
|
<dt class="dlterm"><span class="keyword">iSeries Navigator</span> monitors</dt>
|
|
<dd>The monitors included in <span class="keyword">iSeries Navigator</span> use
|
|
Collection Services data to track the elements of system performance of specific
|
|
interest to you. Moreover, they can take specified actions when certain events,
|
|
such as the percentage of CPU utilization or the status of a job, occur. Use
|
|
this topic to learn how to use these monitors and how to set them up on your
|
|
system.</dd>
