Product Overview
TeamQuest Probes contain a set of data collectors (probes) that gather measurement data for the TeamQuest SMFII and TeamQuest Online software products. This set of probes augments the data sources supplied with TeamQuest SMFII and TeamQuest Online, which gives you a more complete view of system performance.
Each probe acquires performance information from its respective data source on your system. The probes use this information to calculate various statistics that are then stored in the database. You can view these statistics as textual or graphic reports by using the TeamQuest View client software that is included with TeamQuest SMFII and TeamQuest Online client/server software packages.
Each of the probes supplied with TeamQuest Probes can be used independently at your site, but they require TeamQuest SMFII or TeamQuest Online to be installed and operational.
General Features
TeamQuest Probes contains the following probes:
-
Communications Management System (COMS) probe—Collects Transaction Server information (including Transaction Server program name, transaction counts, average response time, transaction queue depth, and number of copies in the mix of each Transaction Server program) on a per-program basis.
-
Data Management Systems II (DMSII) probe—Collects both database-wide and structure-specific statistics. Database-wide information includes database open activity, memory usage, database buffers, transaction activity, and audit activity. Structure-specific information includes logical access statistics, physical I/O statistics, and database buffer usage.
-
BNA Version 2 (BNAv2) probe—Collects performance statistics for various entities (such as servers, station groups, and stations) controlled by BNAv2.
-
LINC probe—Collects performance data from Enterprise Application Environment-generated systems at the system level, subsystem level, and Interface Specification (Ispec) level.
-
COMS TTrail probe—Supplements the COMS probe by collecting detailed online transaction statistics. The COMS TTrail probe consolidates information based on database, transaction processing program, station, window/transaction code, and usercode.
-
COMS Workload probe—Collects performance information about Transaction Server processing programs on a per-workload basis.
-
TCPIP Probe - Collects TCP/IP connection statistics for various network entities, such as hosts, ports, remote hosts, tasks and per connections.
