Monitor performance with Tivoli Performance Viewer
Tivoli Performance Viewer (TPV) enables administrators and programmers to monitor the overall health of WAS from within the administrative console. Tivoli Performance Viewer is embedded in the administrative console. Using TPV, we can view current activity and summary reports, or log Performance Monitoring Infrastructure (PMI) performance data.
- Optional: Adjust PMI settings for the servers to monitor
The PMI service is enabled by default with a basic set of counters enabled.
- Monitor current server activity
We can view real-time data on the current performance activity of a server using TPV in the administrative console.
- Use the performance advisors to examine various data while the application is running
The performance advisor in TPV provides advice to help tune systems for optimal performance by using collected PMI data.
- Configure user and logging settings
These settings may affect the performance of the application server.
- View summary reports
- View performance modules
Performance modules provide graphs of various performance data on system resources such as CPU utilization, on WebSphere pools and queues such as database connection pools, and on customer application data such as servlet response time.
- Record and view server performance logs
We can record and view data that has been logged by TPV in the administrative console.
