Hi John,
which is the best DB monitoring Tool ...?For proactive monitoring, you cannot beat STATSPACK, all free . . . .
For reactive monitoring, I like Quest Spotlight and Confio Ignite.
my purpose is to watch the activities(insertion,deletion,updation on which tables?) when an application is working...That not monitoring, that's auditing!
You can use LogMiner for free . . .
Hope this helps . . .

  • Best proactive monitoring tool

    HI,
    Please advise the best network proactive monitoring tool, that can raise auto-alert tickets with Remedy software.
    Thanks

    1 Spotlight works in about the same fashion as Grid Control/OEM, so you need a database to store metrics
    2 Grid Control can also take care of Oracle patches, notifying you a patch has been released, and optionally install it, and even of O/S patches
    3 Spotlight is a product of a third party, so it will always be less tightly integrated with Oracle
    4 The Grid Control is interfaced by means of a browser, whereas Spotlight needs a fat client. If you want to have Spotlight on multiple systems, you have to buy it multiple times.

  • Best Database monitoring tool

    Which Monitoring is reliable and 100% available - OEM , 3rd Party (Tivoli) or Shell Script in Crontab. One of my co-worker believe Shell Script is reliable and 100% availability . Could you please provide your valuable input on this..

    Understanding 10g.anything is in extended support mode and should be upgraded ... first patch to the terminal release 10.2.0.5.
    I find it laughable that someone would say "We want 100% uptime" but not be investing in keeping their patches current. Feel free to tell your management I said so. ;-)
    But if they think a huge amount of money spent on Tivoli will get them something bug free I've got some land I want to sell them. Cron jobs are, by definition, a security violation even when they do work.
    My recommendation is that your management address the real issue which is that much of what they are wanting to monitor wouldn't be an issue if they paid more attention to having fully supported software.

  • Best monitoring tool

    Well here we are, my application is ready for distribution,
    now i would like to know what is the best free monitoring
    tool for a coldfusion server?
    I found the metrics data in the coldfusion server, but i
    would like to have some more monitoring information for my
    resources, db load etc.
    any ideas?

    Regarding performance monitoring on your CF-server, are you
    running a multi-server configuration?
    If not, you can use the performance monitoring mechanism
    built into CFMX. Simply log into the CF-Administrator, and under
    "Debugging Settings", you'll find a checkbox waaaaay down at the
    bottom of the page which reads "Enable Performance Monitoring".
    Turn that on. What it actually does is tie directly into the
    Windows (NT) built-in performance monitor reporting tool.
    (This of course assumes you're hosting your CF-server on a
    WIndows box - which most people do)
    However, if you're running in a multi-server configuration,
    this performance monitoring option is no longer available to you I
    believe. Bruce Purcell has some good notes on the topic of
    performance monitoring on his blog here:
    http://www.bpurcell.org/blog/index.cfm?mode=entry&ENTRY=967
    Personally, I've found the JRun Metrics service to be
    invaluable. It is one of the only built-in options for performance
    monitoring that ColdFusion offers for a multi-server environment as
    far as I know.
    Regarding your DB server, that is an entirely different topic
    (unrelated to ColdFusion). You should contact your DBMS vendor for
    more information on that.

  • Which Monitoring Tool is best to monitor LAN and WAN

    Hi,
    CAN ANYONE TELL ME Which Monitoring Tool is best to monitor LAN and WAN.
    Waiting for immediate response.
    Thanks
    Irshad

    To start with HP open, this is SNMP-based as well. As it is around for quite a while and delivers support for many vendors, it has become sort of an industry standard. Many other vendors deliver add-ons (even CiscoWorks) to support their products via HP open. That functionality however comes with a price. If you have plenty of money an a large network to manage, HP open might be your best choice.
    Cisco Works and other -start-with-C- products are typically used to manage Cisco devices. If you have a fair share of non-cisco boxes around you will find that you cannot see or do everything with them that you might want.
    One special thing about CiscoWorks is that it lacks a grapical real-time overview of the network. In my opinion this is a weakness in the product. On the other hand, it has many nice features to manage all kinds of Cisco devices.
    My ideal solution is to use both a generic SNMP manager, SNMPc in my case, and CiscoWorks 2000. With SNMPc I can quickly see network node status and do some bandwidth management (baselining). CW2k serves mainly to execute changes (NetConfig) and as a syslogger. It is also used to perform IOS upgrades and to store config files.
    I guess this could be done with HP open as well, but our money does not reach far enough to pay for both. SNMPc costs a lot less, both in purchase and in maintenance.
    Hope this clarifies things a bit.

  • Oracle EPM 11.1.2.1 Monitoring tools

    Gurus,
    could you please let me know what are the available system monitoring or performance monitoring tools for oracle EPM 11.1.2.1 or in case licenses are involved what are the best key areas for manual procedures to monitor the system?
    Many thanks !

    Hello,
    Monitoring is a broad term. There are many 3rd party tools available that can provide monitoring, it all depends on what exactly you're looking for.
    Oracle has a document on setting up Oracle Enterprise Manager to monitor Hyperion Applications: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-foundation/sys9-oem-integration-1-129287.pdf. For performance monitoring, you can also look at this: https://blogs.oracle.com/pa/entry/epm_11_1_2_how3. This will basically connect to the JRockit JVM and look at the performance for the web application.
    If you want to do more monitoring (services, servers, processor, CPU), you can look into Hyperic HQ: http://www.hyperic.com/. They have both an open source version and an enterprise version. I've used the open source version myself and it is pretty good and plays well with Windows. You can see many metrics, graphics and information via the web based application. You can also setup email alerts on certain activities (service stop, service start) and also monitor website availability. For being an open source software, I think it offers alot and it is very reliable.
    Again, these are just a few suggestions. There are many tools out there that can accomplish what you're looking for.
    Regards,
    Luis

  • Please suggest DB monitoring tool

    Our DB have some performance issues, I need your suggestions to buy a DB monitoring tool to help us to resolve these problems.
    If you can share your experiences on the tool, it will be the best.

    Hi,
    We don't have enough knowledge on DB.In that case, beware of tools that make recommendations that you cannot understand . . .
    Some advanced monitoring tools can be cryptic for beginners.
    Is OEM or Statspack suitable to a beginner? Beware, the OEM diagnostic pack and the OEM performance pack are really expensive, over $6,000 per seat:
    http://www.dba-oracle.com/news_tuning_packs_price.htm
    Plus, consider 3rd party tuining tools.
    Historically, Oracle tools have had a bad reputation, and Oracle's Oracle Expert tool was widely criticized for making ridiculous tuning recommendations . .
    Everybody has a monitoring tool to plug, I even have a few that I wrote myself.
    There are a zilllion of them, but they all offer test drives, but try to find:
    - A monitoring tool that makes recommendations in plain English
    - A tool that is reasonably priced
    - A tool from a well-know vendor with a good track record
    Lastly, if you are not familiar with Oracle tuning, it may be better and cheaper to buy an Oracle health check.
    A guru can find tuning problems in just a few hours, faster and more efficient that using a tuning tool.
    Hope this helps . . .

    Hi asad,
    Microsoft SQL Server and the Microsoft Windows operating system provide utilities that allow us to view the current condition of the database and to track performance as conditions change. There are a variety of tools and techniques that
    can be used to monitor Microsoft SQL Server Databases.

  • Available resource monitoring tools

    Hi,
    Hi I'm evaluating my option to monitor resource utilisation by domains. The categories I'm interested in are CPU, Mem, Disc and I/O utilisation. What monitoring tools exist? Searching the web, I've seen Without having access to an oracle server, yet, the resource categories of sample output of 'xm list' I've seen so far only contained CPU and mem utilisation but not any I/O (disk or net). Is this correct? And what options have I got to monitor these resources as finely as possible?
    Best regards and thanks for your help

    Would you like to perform the monitoring from control domain or guest domains? If you do the monitoring inside guest domain, then I guess you can use SNMP tools for the job. I've used Orca and SEtoolkit inside guest domains (they don't use SNMP) but they are a bit outdated for that use. You might also take a look at Zabbix.
    I don't know what tools exists for collecting information from control domain (which would require less work and less installed clients etc.). Maybe some custom scripting with SNMP.

  • Good Network Monitoring Tool

    Hello All,
    I work in a network that is poorly managed. Really POORLY MANAGED (9 sites, no documentation, disatater recovery no backup). The new mangers are doing their best to clean up the network.
    What is the best monitoring tool in the market other that Solarwinds?
    Regards
    Mike

    Well first thing is to generate some sort of layout or inventory. There was a good thread on how to do that over on Solarwinds' Thwack user forum earlier this year. It's not SolarWinds-specific so have a look there for starters.
    Once you've bounded your problem you can make a more informed decision with respect to tools to use going forward. For instance, if it's all Cisco, Prime LMS is a great tool. For small Cisco networks, Cisco Network Assistant and Cisco Configuration Professional offer some nice (and free) capabilities. For multivendor shops, SolarWinds Orion family (NPM, NTA, etc.) and IPSwitch What's Up Gold are two commonly used commercial products. If you're a bit Linux-savvy, you can pretty easily deploy a set of open-source tools (Nagios, Cacti and RANCID for fault, performance and configuration management respectively).
    With the exception of SolarWinds, the above are primaily network-focused. If you want to add servers and applicaitons, that's a bigger discussion.

  • OEM vs other monitoring tools (Solarwinds)

    Can someone tell me the advantages of using OEM 12c as a monitoring tool over the Solarwinds product for Solaris systems?  I know OEM will also give management capabilities for databases, but strictly from a monitoring perspective will OEM catch things (hardware or software) that Solarwinds will not? 

    Enterprise Manager 12c has numerous plugins and features that are not offered by the Solarwinds products.  EM12c is engineered to work with all of Oracle's products and works seamlessly to provide value where misc. products that cover one or two areas must have each data brought together in a third tool in attempts to solve issues and provide a full picture of the IT infrastructure.  I would contact your Oracle Sales rep to get a the best comparison to ensure you make the decision that will provide the most value for your company.
    Thank you,
