Using ITCAM Agent for HTTP Servers, you can monitor multiple Web servers running on the same physical node.The Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Agent collects performance data using the following methods:
- Apache servers parse the config file to get the server name and collect data by the module. The module handles all the HTTP requests.
- IIS servers collect data in two ways:
- For static information about server configuration, it uses Admin Base Object (ABO) interface, which provides access to the IIS metabase.
- For dynamic information about server availability and performance metrics, it uses Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) interface.
- Sun Web servers collect data by polling SNMP service for Web server statistics and parsing Web server configuration files to get information not provided by the SNMP subagent.
