ASG TMON
for CICS TS for z/OS (formerly from Landmark) monitors the CICS Transaction
Server (TS) and provides resource consumption measurements by tracing
each transaction's performance by CICS event and related unit of work.
Note: CICS data can
be produced by either ASG TMONCICS or as a subtype of SMF.
|
|
|
|
ASG TMON for DB2 (formerly
from Landmark) works with the SQL Analyzer to manage DB2 applications
and critical DB2 resources by providing a single view of DB2 data-sharing
group performance. ASG TMON for DB2 tracks DB2 buffer pools, lock
contention and serialized resource usage, transaction statistics from
ASG TMON for CICS to ASG TMON for DB2, and dynamic and static SQL
calls. ASG TMON for DB2 provides a view for all performance statistics
by plan, package, and statement, including CPU time, I/O analysis, lock activity, and buffer pool
utilization by SQL statement.

BMC Mainview for IMS
(formerly IMF) supplies transaction information such as CPU usage,
number of I/Os, and response
time. When you collect BMC Mainview for IMS data instead of IBM IMS
data, BMC recommends that you collect a duration of one hour of consistently
high activity, starting at the beginning and ending at the end of
an RMF interval.

BMC Performance Manager
for Servers (formerly BMC PATROL) collects UNIX and Windows enterprise
system management data.
|
|
|
|
The Computer Associates
CA 1 Tape Management product (formerly TMS) controls and protects
tape data sets and volumes in z/OS environments.
|
|
|
|
Demand Technology Performance Sentry (formerly NTSMF)
collects data from Windows systems and for Windows server applications
such as Exchange, SQL Server, and IIS.
SAS IT Resource Management
also supports a separate Demand Technology Performance Sentry adapter
that is z/OS based. The Demand Technology Performance Sentry with
MXG adapter that is z/OS based is for raw data sources that are supported
through MXG.
|
|
|
|
Demand Technology Performance
Sentry (formerly NTSMF) with MXG collects data from Windows systems
and for Windows server applications such as Exchange, SQL Server,
and IIS. (SAS IT Resource Management also supports a separate Demand
Tech Perf Sentry adapter that is not MXG based.)
|
|
|
|
HP Performance Agent (formerly OpenView Performance Agent) captures
enterprise systems management measurement data for IT resources from
Windows systems and many UNIX variants such as HP-UX, Sun OS/Solaris,
IBM AIX, Tru 64 UNIX, and Linux.
|
|
|
|
HP Reporter software
(formerly OpenView Reporter) captures HP Performance Agent measurement
data that is stored in a relational database via SAS/ACCESS to Oracle
or ODBC.

IBM OS/400 Collection Services
Note: The staging code that is
required for the IBM AS400 data source is not automated by a SAS IT
Resource Management adapter. Instead, SAS IT Resource Management supplies
a User-written Staging transformation and templates that contain table
and column metadata for this adapter for use with user-written staging
code.

IBM DFSMS Data Collection
Facility obtains the following Mainframe Storage System data:
-
-
VSAM data set information
-
-
-
-
-
capacity-planning data such as
the following:
- DASD capacity planning:
IBM DCOLLECT provides information and statistics for volumes that
are managed by DFSMShsm (ML0 and ML1).
- tape capacity planning:
IBM DCOLLECT provides statistics for tapes that are managed by DFSMShsm.
-
SMS configuration information

IBM Environmental Record
Editing and Printing Program processes the error records from the
MVS, VM, and VSE operating systems to produce formatted reports. These
IBM EREP reports can show the status of the entire installation, an I/O subsystem, or an individual
device, depending on which report you request. IBM EREP reports can
vary in format, depending on the following report types:
-
System summary reports show error
data in summary form.
-
Trend reports show error data by
daily totals.
-
Event history reports show error
data in a time sequence by occurrence.

IBM Information Management
System (IMS) is the transaction and hierarchical database management
system from IBM.
Note: The staging code that is
required for the IBM IMS data source is not automated by a SAS IT
Resource Management adapter. Instead, SAS IT Resource Management supplies
a User-written Staging transformation and templates that contain table
and column metadata for this adapter for use with user-written staging
code.

IBM System Management
Facility collects and records system and job-related information that
is used for the following purposes:
-
-
-
analyzing the configuration
-
-
summarizing direct access to volume
activity
-
evaluating data set activity
-
profiling system resource use
-
maintaining system security
Note: RMF is a subtype
of SMF records. IBM RMF is the IBM strategic product for z/OS performance
measurement and management. IBM RMF is the base product that collects
performance data for z/OS and Sysplex environments to monitor system
performance. Because IBM RMF data is a subtype of IBM SMF data, the
IBM SMF adapter can be used with IBM RMF data without requiring additional
customizations.

The IBM Transaction
Processing Facility operating system works with application programs
to process transactions in a real-time environment. The IBM TPF system
is designed for businesses and organizations that have large networks
and high volumes of online transactions.
|
|
|
|
IBM VM Monitor Collection
product collects performance information that is associated with VM,
including measurements for user activity, processor storage, I/O, and applications.
|

Microsoft System Center
Operations Manager monitors Windows systems, Microsoft software, and
applications to provide a view of the health of an organization’s
Windows environment.

Enterprise Resource
Planning (ERP) Software from SAP (formerly SAP R/3), via the SAS IT
Management Adapter for SAP, collects SAP ERP and SAP Business Warehouse
(BW) workload performance measurements.
-
For SAP ERP, measurements are read
from the SAP Statistic File (stat file).
-
For SAP BW, the measurements that
communicate the amount of computer resources that were consumed to
populate and query BW cubes are read. These measurements are then
used to supplement BW server performance statistics.

System Activity Reporter
is a logging mechanism that is native to most UNIX and Linux variants.
SAR captures the contents of cumulative system activity counters.
|
Dependent on operating
system.
For information about
specific operation system release versions, see “Accessing
Raw Data for SAR” in Appendix 2, “Data Sources Supported
by SAS IT Resource Management Adapters” in SAS IT Resource
Management: Administrator’s Guide.

Simple Network Management
Protocol is a component of the Internet Protocol Suite.
The SNMP adapter also
supports gathering SNMP data from round-robin databases (RRDs) that
are used in many network management tools.
|

VMware vCenter Server
is an operational console for VMware and includes the VMware vCenter
database that serves as the raw data source for this SAS IT Resource
Management adapter. The vCenter database contains VMware performance
and utilization measurements for both the virtual machines and the
physical servers on which they run, including detailed CPU, memory,
storage, and I/O metrics.
The vCenter relational database is accessed via SAS/ACCESS to Oracle,
DB2, or ODBC.
|
|
|
|
VMware Data Acquisition
is a transformation that can extract topology and configuration information
from the VMware vCenter database more frequently than once a day.
The vCenter relational database is accessed via SAS/ACCESS to Oracle,
DB2, or ODBC
Note: This is not an adapter. However,
a staging transformation is available for this source.
