System Data Recorder

Monitoring the IT infrastructure is an important key to ensure your business continuity and prepare for future grow. SDR is a simple toolkit, containing a number of data collectors, used to record and report data from your Solaris servers. SDR is mainly designed around Solaris operating system due kernel statistics interface but it can be easily expanded to other OSes. Solaris operating environment has already many utilities to debug and observe the entire system or certain individual processes. Third parties software applications can be installed to monitor the system or the applications: BMC Patrol, TeamQuest, Tivoli, Sitescope, Nagios, etc. In this case we are interested in observing and recording: the utilisation of certain resources: cpu, memory, disk, network the saturation of these resources All these numbers will help us in developing a simple capacity planning setup for our site.

NAME
envmond - Environmental Monitoring daemon SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/envmond DESCRIPTION
Environmental Monitoring provides a means of detecting system threshold conditions, that if exceeded, could result in a loss of data or damage to the system itself. Using the envmond daemon, thresholds levels can be checked and corrective action can ensue before any damage occurs. The envmond daemon performs the following: Queries the system for exceeded threshold levels. Broadcasts a message to users warning of high threshold conditions or fan failure, and suggests corrective action. Sends a message to users when a high temperature condition has been resolved. Notifies all users that an orderly shutdown is to be initiated if recovery is not possible. To enable Environmental Monitoring, the envmond daemon must be started during the system boot, but after the eSNMP and Server System MIB agents have started. Before starting Environmental Monitoring, a system check is performed. If the system hardware does not support Envi- ronmental Monitoring, the envmond daemon and Server System MIB are not started. You can customize, start, and stop the envmond daemon using the envconfig utility. For more information, see the envconfig reference page. FILES
