PATROL® for Linux Enterprise Server
Business Challenge
Businesses today are migrating distributed applications to the mainframe. Smaller budgets and server consolidations are driving IT personnel to consolidate their databases, Web application servers and business applications to IBM zSeries running the Linux operating system (OS). Businesses need monitoring tools to ensure the stability and high performance of their mission critical applications consolidated to the mainframe.
Business Need
- Centralize management of the zSeries Linux OS
- Prevent Linux OS failures and any impact on performance
- Reduce downtime and operational costs
Our Solution
PATROL for Linux Enterprise Server ensures server performance and availability across the enterprise for the Linux OS. This product increases availability by reducing unplanned downtime and by setting thresholds for memory, CPU usage, Disks, file systems, Logs, processes, security and swap file utilization. The user can then establish recovery actions for threshold attainment; anticipating problems before the Linux OS can be impacted.
Key Features & Benefits
- Identifies the future usage patterns and capacity requirements by applying trending to performance, capacity and availability statistics
- Ensures smooth operation and performance through the use of recovery actions in the event a threshold is attained
- Reduces down time and manages by exception with visual and audible automatic alerts
- Simplifies management of your entire enterprise by providing a centralized console view for the Linux OS on zSeries and distributed platforms
- Helps you anticipate the scalability of OS components through a historical graphical representation of Linux OS activity
- Ensures that service-level agreements are met by monitoring the system resources
- Helps you maximize existing resources by monitoring from a central location
