Manage Application Performance in Physical, Virtual and Cloud Environments

Monitoring AIX Made Easy

Applications Manager monitors the performance of IBM AIX Systems. First, Applications Manager discovers each AIX machine and then monitors the CPU activity, complete memory utilization, and local and remote system statistics.

The AIX Management feature optimizes AIX system performance, delivers comprehensive management reports and ensures availability through automated event detection and correction. Applications Manager also monitors processes running in the AIX system.

Some of the components that are monitored in IBM AIX are:
