AIX monitoring


The AIX Monitoring lets you monitor and manage your AIX environment. It monitors the availability of your servers, which includes the following objects:

Monitored Objects

Application classes

 Description

Manages and monitors data collection.

Monitors processor statistics such as percentages of CPU utilization, CPU idle time, CPU time spent on user and system activities.

Monitors basic CPU utilization statistics for multiple processors on a computer.

Provides information such as Kernel Memory Allocation (KMA) statistics, i-node usage, and Kernel usage of system resources.

Monitors the Overall CPU usage, filesystem usage, and virtual memory of the system.

Monitors memory activities and reports detailed memory utilization.

Monitors virtual memory and provides the memory utilization for the entire system and for each swap area.

Monitors the network for information about interfaces, addresses, protocols, and traffic.

Provides you with an abstract view of the entire filesystem, regardless of the various systems' architectures and operating systems.

Displays statistics on process switches, run queues, messaging, and semaphores and allows you to list zombie processes and change process priorities.

Monitors specified processes running on your system.

Schedules processes and establishes monitoring blackout periods in your environment.

Provides listings of the group and password files and shows the failed logins.

Monitors whether the SNMP Master Agent and subagent are running, lists configuration information, and provides diagnostic tests with which you can troubleshoot problems.

Monitors the resource consumption of individual users as well as the number of users and sessions that run on the system.

Monitors the filesystems mounted on a system for information such as disk space, i-nodes, mount and unmounts file systems.

Monitors the disk drives that are mounted on a system.

Monitors remote hosts running Secure Shell (SSH) protocol version 2 (SSH2) using the PSL collection method.

Acts as a container KM and hosts the instances of all remote hosts.

Monitors and manages printers, print queues, and print jobs.

Monitors and manages AIX logical partitioned processor statistics such as:

  • Available AIX logical partitions
  • Percentage of resources assigned to the AIX partition
  • Percentage of resources utilized by the AIX partition
  • Percentage of entitled resource utilization by the AIX partition

Available resources not consumed by the AIX partition

Monitors the attributes and statistics of WPARs on the system. It enables you to view configuration and resource utilization data for System as well as Application WPARs.

 

Enables you to migrate partitions and applications without any disruption to the infrastructure services. 

Monitors Logical Partitions (LPARs)

Monitors managed systems

Monitors Shared Processor Pools configured on the managed system.

Acts a common container KM and hosts instances of the PROCPOOL and LPAR application classes.
