HP Tru64	table() system call, uptime, vmstat, psrinfo, ps, who, swapon OS commands
IBM AIX	oracle_kstat(), getutent(), getproc(), sysconf() system calls
Windows	performance data counters

User Action

A high percentage of I/O wait can indicate a hardware problem, a slow NFS server, or poor load-balancing among local file systems and disks. Check the system messages log for any hardware errors. Use the iostat -xn command or the nfsstat -c (NFS client-side statistics) command or both to determine which disks or file systems are slow to respond. Check to see if the problem is with one or more swap partitions, as lack of swap or poor disk load balancing can cause these to become overloaded. Depending on the specific problem, fixes may include: NFS client or server tuning, hardware replacement, moving applications to other file systems, adding swap space, or restructuring a file system for better performance.

CPU Interrupt Time (%)

This metric represents the percentage of time the processor spends receiving and servicing hardware interrupts during sample intervals. This value is an indirect indicator of the activity of devices that generate interrupts, such as the system clock, the mouse, disk drivers, data communication lines, network interface cards, and other peripheral devices. These devices normally interrupt the processor when they have completed a task or require attention. Normal thread execution is suspended during interrupts. Most system clocks interrupt the processor every 10 milliseconds, creating a background of interrupt activity. Suspends normal thread execution during interrupts.

User Action

For UNIX-based platforms, check the swap usage using the UNIX top command or the Solaris swap -l command. Additional swap can be added to an existing file system by creating a swap file and then adding the file to the system swap pool. (See documentation for your UNIX OS). If swap is mounted on /tmp, space can be freed by removing any junk files in /tmp. If it is not possible to add file system swap or free up enough space, additional swap will have to be added by adding a raw disk partition to the swap pool. See UNIX documentation for procedures.

For Windows, check the page file usage and add an additional page file if current limits are insufficient.

Swap Utilization, Kilobytes

For UNIX-based platforms, this metric represents the amount of swapped memory in use for the last interval.

User Action

An abnormally high value (determined on the basis of historical data) indicates that the system is under heavy load. If the value is consistently high, consider reducing the load on the system by stopping the number of processes.

Total Swap, Kilobytes

Total amount of page file space available to be allocated by processes. Paging files are shared by all processes and the lack of space in paging files can prevent processes from allocating memory.

This metric is available only on Windows.

Data Source

Performance Data counters and Windows API GlobalMemoryStatusEx

User Action

An abnormally high value (determined on the basis of historical data) indicates that the system is doing a lot of swapping by moving data either to or from the disk. This typically will slow down the system because of the relatively slower access to the disk. The reason for this could be one or more of the following:

There are many processes running on the system competing for a limited RAM and this results in more swapping. User can try to reduce the load by stopping some process
A process occupying more memory than expected leading to a shortage of available memory

Typically these kinds of problems are solved by adding more RAM.

Total Users

This metric represents the total number of users currently logged into the system. This metric checks the number of users running on the system.

Used Swap, Kilobytes

This metric represents the size in kilobytes of the page file instance used.

This metric is available only on Windows.

Data Source

Performance Data counters and Windows API GlobalMemoryStatusEx.

User Action

An abnormally high value (determined on the basis of historical data) indicates that the system is doing a lot of swapping by moving data either to or from the disk. This typically will slow down the system because of the relatively slower access to the disk. The reason for this could be one or more of the following:

There are many processes running on the system competing for a limited RAM and this results in more swapping. User can try to reduce the load by stopping some process
A process occupying more memory than expected leading to a shortage of available memory

Typically these kinds of problems are solved by adding more RAM.

Log File Monitor

The Log File Monitor metric category allows the operator to monitor one or more log files for the occurrence of one or more Perl patterns in the content. In addition, the operator can specify a Perl pattern to be ignored for the log file. Periodic scanning will be performed against new content added since the last scan, lines matching the ignore pattern will be ignored first, then lines matching specified match patterns will result in one record being uploaded to the Management Repository for each pattern. The user can set a threshold against the number of lines matching this pattern. File rotation will be handled within the given file.

Page Faults (per second)

Page Faults/sec is the average number of pages faulted per second. It is measured in number of pages faulted per second because only one page is faulted in each fault operation, hence this is also equal to the number of page fault operations. This metric includes both hard faults (those that require disk access) and soft faults (where the faulted page is found elsewhere in physical memory.) Most processors can handle large numbers of soft faults without significant consequence. However, hard faults, which require disk access, can cause significant delays.

Page Faults from Software Lock Requests

This metric represents the number of protection faults per second. These faults occur when a program attempts to access memory it should not access, receives a segmentation violation signal, and dumps a core file. This metric checks the number of faults for the CPU(s) specified by the Host CPU(s) parameter, such as cpu_stat0 or * (for all CPUs on the system).

Page-in Requests (per second)

For UNIX-based systems, represents the number of page read ins per second (read from disk to resolve fault memory references) by the virtual memory manager. Along with Page Outs, this statistic represents the amount of real I/O initiated by the virtual memory manager. This metric checks the number of page read ins for the CPU(s) specified by the Host CPU(s) parameter, such as cpu_stat0 or * (for all CPUs on the system).For Windows, this metric is the rate at which the disk was read to resolve hard page faults. It shows the number of reads operations, without regard to the number of pages retrieved in each operation. Hard page faults occur when a process references a page in virtual memory that is not in working set or elsewhere in physical memory, and must be retrieved from disk. This metric is a primary indicator of the kinds of faults that cause system wide delays. It includes read operations to satisfy faults in the file system cache (usually requested by applications) and in non-cached mapped memory files.

Page-Out Requests (per second)

For UNIX-based systems, represents the number of page write outs to disk per second. This metric checks the number of page write outs for the CPU(s) specified by the Host CPU(s) parameter, such as cpu_stat0 or * (for all CPUs on the system).For Windows, this metric is the rate at which pages are written to disk to free up space in physical memory. Pages are written to disk only if they are changed while in physical memory, so they are likely to hold data, not code. This metric shows write operations, without regard to the number of pages written in each operation.

Pages Paged-in (per second)

For UNIX-based systems, represents the number of pages paged in (read from disk to resolve fault memory references) per second. This metric checks the number of pages paged in for the CPU(s) specified by the Host CPU(s) parameter, such as cpu_stat0 or * (for all CPUs on the system).For Windows, this metric is the rate at which pages are read from disk to resolve hard page faults. Hard page faults occur when a process refers to a page in virtual memory that is not in its working set or elsewhere in physical memory, and must be retrieved from disk. When a page is faulted, the system tries to read multiple contiguous pages into memory to maximize the benefit of the read operation.

This metric checks the number of pages paged out for the CPU(s) specified by the Host CPU(s) parameter, such as cpu_stat0 or * (for all CPUs on the system).For Windows, this metric is the rate at which pages are written to disk to free up space in physical memory. Pages are written back to disk only if they are changed in physical memory, so they are likely to hold data, not code. A high rate of pages output might indicate a memory shortage. Windows writes more pages back to disk to free up space when physical memory is in short supply.

If this number is zero or closer to zero, then you can be sure the system has sufficient memory. If the number is always high, then adding memory will definitely help.

Transition Faults (per second)

Transition Faults/sec is the rate at which page faults are resolved by recovering pages that were being used by another process sharing the page, or were on the modified page list or the standby list, or were being written to disk at the time of the page fault. The pages were recovered without additional disk activity. Transition faults are counted in numbers of faults; because only one page is faulted in each operation, it is also equal to the number of pages faulted.

Storage Support

This metric category is used to decide if the OS being monitored is supported. It's also used to inform the user if the number of Storage entities (Disks / FileSystems /Volumes) being monitored is within the applicable limits so as not to affect the performance of the Management Agent.

Supported

The metric is used to enable or disable the collection, depending on the OS supported or the number of storage entities being monitored.

The operating systems supported are Linux, Solaris, AIX, and HPUX.

The maximum number of storage entities monitored is set to 100 in the configuration file located in EMAgent/sysman/emd/emagent_storage.config. The Disks/Files/Volumes to be monitored can be added in the configuration file. If the storage entities are more than 100, the response time of the Management Agent increases.

Check the swap usage using the UNIX top command or the Solaris swap -l command. Additional swap can be added to an existing file system by creating a swap file and then adding the file to the system swap pool. (See documentation for your UNIX OS). If swap is mounted on /tmp, space can be freed by removing any junk files in /tmp. If it is not possible to add file system swap or free up enough space, additional swap will have to be added by adding a raw disk partition to the swap pool. See UNIX documentation for procedures.

Windows Events Log

The purpose of this metric is to collect those entries from all available Windows NT event log files whose type is either Error or Warning. A critical or a warning alert is raised only for System and Security Event log file entries.

Note: Since log files continue to grow, this metric outputs log events which had been written to the log file after the last collection time, that is, only those records are written out whose timeGenerated (time when the event was generated) is after the last collection time until the last record of the log file. If this metric is collected for the first time, only the events generated on the current date are outputted.

This metric is available only on Windows.

Date-Time

This is the time at which point the metric scanned through the event logs. This metric is available only on Windows.

Windows Event Log Message

This metric is a digest of all the events that match the Log Name, Source, and Event ID specified for the monitored object. After the above filtering is done, grouping of these events is done on Log Name, Source, Event ID, Category, and User to get the count of error events and warning events. The column has the details of the events in the following format:

[LogName: Source:Event ID:Category:User : :]

Example: [Application:Symantec AntiVirus:2: : :error=2:] [Application:Symantec AntiVirus:3: : ::warning =1 ]

To get the exact message about the events that satisfied the criteria set on the monitored object, the Event viewer provided by Microsoft Windows must be used.

This metric is available only on Windows.
