What formula or ratio or critical values should be identified as bottleneck while monitoring different things ?

[Hakki Aydin Ucar]

For network monitor you can use nettl ;

HP-UX provides the nettl command to perform network tracing and logging. By default, a basic level of tracing and logging is activated at boot time:

# nettl -status
All Subsytem Tracing:

# nettl -start
Initializing Network Tracing and Logging...
Done.

# nettl -traceon all -entity all -f /manoj/mytrace


# nettl -stop

And yoıu can read via formatted output with netfmt

Manoj,

This is the best answer i can give. Glance and gpm are the best real time monitoring tools. Perfview and MeasureView are good Data Collection performance tools. ipcs/ipcrm, mount, nice/renice are good performance administration tools. So it depends on what kind of monitoring you want to do.

Mr. Arvin E.,
it's possible to attach the HP-UX template that you use with CACTI?
Thanks in advance

Manoj,

Sightline Systems collects much more than the basics that you mentioned for HP-UX and offers  configurable data retention polices for keeping your historical data. The browser based console (EDM) allows you to visualize data from different systems on one screen.
