Spotlight on Unix/Linux

Individua i problemi di Unix/Linux in tempo reale

Spotlight® on Unix/Linux is a performance diagnostics and resolution tool. It graphically displays the real-time flow of data in your Solaris, AIX, HPUX, and Unix/Linux operating systems — including I/O subsystem, cache, and kernel information. Imposta automaticamente la base delle normali attività per ciascun sistema per creare soglie di guardia e inviare avvertimenti visivi o acustici in caso di problemi incombenti. Con Spotlight è possibile identificare le aree congestionate e risolvere rapidamente i problemi prestazionali prima che influenzino gli utenti finali.

  • Migliora la visibilità all'interno del sistema operativo attraverso una rappresentazione dei relativi processi e componenti che consentono di osservare il traffico I/O effettivo in tempo reale
  • Velocizza i tempi di risoluzione individuando le zone problematiche in tempo reale, come per esempio i direttori front-end, la cache, l'I/O dei dischi e le statistiche di transazione
  • Migliora l'efficienza ed elimina la necessità di formulare congetture fornendo allarmi visivi o acustici che preannunciano i problemi incombenti
  • Riduce i tempi di fermo dell'utente finale e accresce la produttività con potenti drill-down e rapide risoluzioni dei problemi
  • Rafforza la soluzione di gestione delle prestazioni dell'applicazione attraverso l'integrazione con Foglight®

Before installing Spotlight on Unix, ensure your system meets the following minimum hardware and software requirements:

Client Requirements

Platform

A Pentium-based or equivalent PC with:

  • A 1.2 GHz Processor (recommended minimum).
  • A monitor capable of supporting a resolution of 1280x1024 or larger. (You should also set the display to use the 64K color palette [65536 colors].)
  • A CD-ROM drive or Internet connection. Spotlight can be downloaded from the Internet or installed from compact disc. The CD-ROM drive should be attached to the PC on which Spotlight is to be installed. A drive mapped to a network device could be used if a local CD-ROM is not available.
  • A printer (optional). Spotlight reports can be printed on a laser or bubble jet printer. You can print graphs in color if your printer provides this capability.
  • A sound card and speakers (optional). Spotlight can use sound to alert you when a threshold is reached. You must have a sound card and speakers installed on your PC for this feature to work.
Memory512 megabytes of RAM (minimum). 1 gigabyte recommended. Memory consumption will increase for multiple simultaneous connections.
Hard Disk Space1 gigabyte of free disk space. This should exist on a local disk drive rather than a network drive. Extra disk space will be required if you choose to log historical snapshots from within Spotlight.
