- OVERVIEW
-
- IBM is initiating a Beta program for future versions of

- ment feedback and should NOT be used in production.
-
- The following product is now available through the
- Beta program:
-
- * OS/2 SPM/2 2.0
-
-
- SPM/2 2.0 is an integrated package of powerful facilities
- that allow you to monitor resources such as CPU, RAM, disk
- and more on your local and remote IBM Operating System/2
- 2.0. SPM/2's ability to graph this resource information
- allows you to look at "live" data as well as "prerecorded"
- data for any monitored workstation in your LAN.
-
-
- * Collects critical resource utilization data: CPU,
- memory, swap file, files, FAT/HPFS cache, physical
- disk, printer, communication port
-
- * Records performance data to disk for processing at
- a later time
-
- * Collects data from multiple nodes in a single
- recording session
-
- * Provides a real-time graphical representation of how
- system resources are being used (CPU, disk, RAM and
- swap activity) as well as the ability to playback
- previously recorded data.
-
- * Produces detailed resource utilization reports
- (from recorded data) that can be summarized by
- workstation, application, process or thread
-
- * Provides in-depth OS/2 2.0 memory analysis information
- (including working set and a view of OS/2 control
- blocks)
-
- * Monitoring of remote OS/2 LAN Requester as well as
- Servers
