Status and Performance
Host Integration Server and the Windows operating system offer several tools for helping you evaluate the demand on, and performance of, Host Integration Server computers and components.
You can use the following tools to quickly isolate problems:
Windows Utilities
The Windows Event Viewer allows you to monitor events on a server to troubleshoot various hardware and software problem. User Manager allows you to set up auditing and Server Manager allows you to set up administrative alerts to be sent to remote computers. For additional information on these utilities, refer to Windows documentation.
Host Integration Server Status (using the SNA Manager)
The Host Integration Server SNA Manager provides information about the current status of Host Integration Server resources, including logical units (LU), connections, and print sessions. This shared console provides a convenient and consistent environment for Host Integration Server, Transaction Integrator, and other console administration tools.
System Monitor
This Windows application enables you to measure the performance data for computers on the network. You can also monitor connections, LU sessions, and adapters.
Note
In Windows, the name of this utility is System Monitor, although it appears on the Start menu as Performance.
SNA Trace Utility
The Host Integration Server Trace utility records activity between or within Host Integration Server components. Tracing provides detailed information of internal activities on Host Integration Server. It is helpful in isolating problems and is frequently used by product support personnel.
