1.1 Key Benefits of AppManager for UNIX

AppManager for UNIX allows you to monitor and diagnose potential problems in your UNIX and Linux environments and integrate this information into the Operator Console or Control Center to provide a more complete view of your entire system.

With AppManager, you can gather performance, operation, and availability information for your managed systems, set thresholds for raising alerts, automate responses to system events, and view detailed information about your environment and server health through real-time and historical charts and reports.

Through the AppManager consoles, the information about your UNIX and Linux computers integrates with other important management information, such as the status of your Windows computers, the health of system services and processes, the operation of your mission-critical applications, and the performance of key hardware components. In addition, all of this detailed information can be stored in the AppManager repository, making it available for charts, service-level reports, trend analysis, and capacity planning.

Exception-based monitoring of server operation and performance keeps you up-to-date about new or potential problems while minimizing management overhead. AppManager provides broad support for monitoring both applications and hardware, giving you a complete picture of network resources, server status, and application availability.
