Performance Measurement Tools

[Bobcat_1]

HI,

Is the Measureware tool as in HP-UX available for Tru64 Unix V5.x ?

If yes, please point me to where I can download it for HP internal use only.

Difference between Measureware and Glanceware ?

On Tru64 Unix, besides the Collect tool, are there any readily available performance measurement tools ?

Thanks & regards.

You could always try ATsar (with source)

http://ftp.atcomputing.nl/pub/OS10/tools.tar.gz

Works very well and gives you all the info you will ever need. If you have problems installing give me a yell.

Thanks for the info.
I've seen the zip file but it appears to be for HP-UX system ?

I need something for Tru64 Unix v5.x

Its a TAR file for the sources for a free SAR. If you edit the "Makefile" in the atsar directory and set "OSTYP = COMPAQ51" you can build a nice SAR for yer Tru64 UNIX system.

If you use it on a TruCluster make sure to make /var/adm/sa node independent (mkdir -p /var/adm/sa ; mkcdsl -fa /var/adm/sa)

Add these lines to yer root crontab

0 * * * * /usr/local/bin/atsa1
20,40 8-17 * * * /usr/local/bin/atsa1
5 18 * * * /usr/local/bin/atsa2 -s 8:00 -e 18:01 -i 1200 -A

And don't forget to edit the /sbin/rc2.d/S99atsar file (There is no such user "sys" on Tru64, this is why "make install" will also fail)

Measureware, now Openview Performance Agent, can be purchased for Tru64 UNIX 5.x. I do not know of an HP internal website for it, however we are running the program on all of our Tru64 boxes to collect trending data.

It works through 5.1B on the Marvel class systems (ES80, GS1280).
