C.O.L. DELIVERS SINGLE-SERVER VERSION OF OS/2
PERFORMANCE MONITORING TOOLS
PALO ALTO CA, PURDYS NY. --- September 30, 1991 - C.O.L. Systems, Inc.
has announced the immediate availability of a single-server version
of the Osrm2 LAN System - Osrm2 LAN Lite. The Osrm2 System (Operating
System Resource Monitor for OS/2) provides resource monitoring,
performance analysis and capacity planning capabilities for servers or
workstations running under the OS/2 operating system.
"If an organization is deploying critical business applications on
the OS/2 platform, it is essential that they have some way to measure
and monitor the performance of these systems", says Frank Castellucci,
president of C.O.L. "By providing them with detailed information and
analysis on both Systems and Applications performance and resource
usage, the Osrm2 System gives organizations the information they need
to effectively gauge and optimize the performance of their OS/2
environments."
Osrm2 LAN Lite version 1.3 is functionally identical to the larger,
multi-node Osrm2 LAN System, providing the same performance analysis
capabilities for the many single-server LAN environments in use today.
It uses the Presentation Manager graphical interface of OS/2 to
display real-time and summary information and analysis of both systems
and applications performance and resource usage. In addition, it
stores and manages sampled resource statistics which are used for
long-term performance analysis and capacity planning.
System resources monitored by the Osrm2 LAN System include:
* CPU Usage - CPU utilization, CPU Dispatches
* Real Memory Status - Total, Free, Used, Fixed, Working set,
Non-working set
* Disk Activity - Number of reads, writes, writes w/verify, bytes,
sectors, response time, percent busy
(Monitors both Physical and Logical Disks)
* Swap Activity - Number of swaps, total bytes swapped, response time
* Interrupt Activity - Interrupt utilization, Interrupt dispatches
System performance information can be displayed locally at the
server or remotely from any OS/2 client connected to the server,
using the Osrm2 Administrator utility. The Administrator utility
also provides detailed application performance information, showing
how each application utilizes all of the above system resources. "The
Administrator utility's Application Monitor allows organizations to
pinpoint which of their applications may be causing performance
problems in their environment", says Castellucci.
Like the multi-node Osrm2 LAN System, Osrm2 LAN Lite also allows
users to set performance thresholds for all of their system resources.
If these thresholds are exceeded, the user is alerted through the Node
Status screen, allowing them to take corrective action before a
serious problem occurs.
Osrm2 LAN Lite version 1.3 is priced at $449 and requires OS/2,
named pipes, and the IBM System Performance Monitor/2 (distributed
feature only). The multi-node Osrm2 LAN System has the same
requirements and is available in a variety of configurations.
