Chapter 1. Monitoring Agent for Linux OS

The Monitoring Agent for Linux OS offers a central point of management for your Linux OS environmentor application.

The software provides a comprehensive means for gathering the information that is required to detectproblems early and to prevent them. Information is standardized across the system. You can monitormultiple servers from a single console. By using the you can easily collect and analyze Linux OS specificinformation.

Installing and configuring the agent

Install the monitoring agent on the system where the application that you want to monitor is located.

Chapter 3. Eventing thresholds

Eventing thresholds test for certain conditions on your managed systems, such as memory usage over95%, and raise an event when the conditions have been met.

The Monitoring Agent for Linux OS comes with predefined eventing thresholds that you can use tomonitor your Linux OS environment.

You can create additional thresholds for the areas of interest in your environment.

After you click

System Configuration > Threshold Manager, select Linux OS as the data sourcetype.

Predefined eventing thresholdsThe thresholds are organized by the data set for which they were written. The has the followingpredefined thresholds:

Linux_Fragmented_File_SystemThe percentage of i-nodes to used disk space is high.

The default configuration has the following SQL syntax:*VALUE KLZ_Disk.Disk_Used_Percent *LT 85 *AND *VALUE KLZ_Disk.Inodes_Used_Percent *GT 80

This threshold is evaluated every 1 hour.

Customized eventing thresholdsYou can use the predefined eventing thresholds as a starting point for event monitoring, and create yourown eventing thresholds as conditions arise that you want to monitor. Hover your mouse over a helpicon to get user assistance for the field. Click the help tool to open the help system for the ThresholdManager help topic.

The has many data sets that you can use to create eventing thresholds to monitor for specific conditions.

Chapter 4. Attributes

Attributes are the application properties that are being measured and reported by the Monitoring Agentfor Linux OS. Attributes make up the key performance indicators (KPIs) that are reported, and you canuse them to create eventing thresholds for conditions that you want to monitor.

About attributes

Attributes are organized into data sets (also referred to as attribute groups). The values can be selectivelydisplayed in dashboards or used to define a threshold.

When you view dashboards and use thresholds, data samples of the attributes in the data set are taken.

DashboardsAttributes are displayed in the dashboards. The widgets specify which attribute values to requestfrom a monitoring agent.

You can edit the Components group widgets that display in the Application PerformanceDashboard to control how the group widgets are displayed, their positioning, and to adjust thesummary thresholds. After you select a defined application, select the group that is namedComponents, and click Actions > Edit to open the editor.

The Attribute Details tab is displayed after you select a component instance from the navigatorInstances section (renamed to the selected subgroup name). Alternative, you can click inside asummary group widget. Use the tools in the Attribute Details tab to create custom charts andtables with data samples from the available data sets.

Eventing thresholdsYou can define thresholds that monitor the state of your operating system, database, orapplication and open an event when the threshold is exceeded. You use attributes to definethresholds that describe a condition that you want to test. After the threshold is started, thevalues that are specified in the threshold definition are compared with the values that arecollected by the . After the condition is met, an event is registered and you are alerted byindicator icons in the Application Performance Dashboard navigator and the Events tab.

The comes with predefined thresholds that are enabled and started with the agent. If you edit apredefined threshold definition, such as to change a condition or severity, it is no longer treatedas a predefined threshold but considered a custom threshold.

When the sampled values for the attributes that are referenced in a threshold meet the condition(such as attribute A is greater than 80%), an event is opened. Note the following conditions:v When no data can be collected for a data set, an empty result is returned (no rows of data)v When a specific attribute cannot be collected, the value 0 or “” is returned unless otherwise

specified in a particular attribute (for example, “N/A”)v Any numeric attribute value that is greater than the largest (positive or negative) number that

can be represented by that type returns the corresponding maximum or minimum value. Forexample, the maximum value for a 32-bit number is 2,147,483,647.

These values are displayed as text values that are defined by the data set, such as “Value ExceedsMaximum” or “Value Exceeds Minimum”.

Accessibility features

Accessibility features assist users who have a disability, such as restricted mobility or limited vision, touse information technology content successfully.

Accessibility features

The web-based interface of IBM Performance Management is the Performance Management console. Theconsole includes the following major accessibility features:v Enables users to use assistive technologies, such as screen-reader software and digital speech

synthesizer, to hear what is displayed on the screen.1 Consult the product documentation of theassistive technology for details on using those technologies with this product.

v Enables users to operate specific or equivalent features using only the keyboard.v Communicates all information independently of color.2

The Performance Management console uses the latest W3C Standard, WAI-ARIA 1.0 (http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria/), to ensure compliance with US Section 508 (http://www.access-board.gov/guidelines-and-standards/communications-and-it/about-the-section-508-standards/section-508-standards),and Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/). To takeadvantage of accessibility features, use the latest release of your screen reader in combination with thelatest web browser that is supported by this product.

The Performance Management console online product documentation in IBM Knowledge Center isenabled for accessibility. The accessibility features of IBM Knowledge Center are described athttp://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/doc/kc_help.html#accessibility.

Keyboard navigation

This product uses standard navigation keys.

Interface information

The Performance Management console web user interface does not rely on cascading style sheets torender content properly and to provide a usable experience. However, the product documentation doesrely on cascading style sheets. IBM Knowledge Center provides an equivalent way for low-vision users touse their custom display settings, including high-contrast mode. You can control font size by using thedevice or browser settings.

The Performance Management console web user interface includes WAI-ARIA navigational landmarksthat you can use to quickly navigate to functional areas in the application.

The Performance Management console user interface does not have content that flashes 2 - 55 times persecond.

Related accessibility information

In addition to standard IBM help desk and support websites, IBM has established a TTY telephoneservice for use by deaf or hard of hearing customers to access sales and support services:
