Using the Monitoring Project inside Performance Explorer

  1. Launch Performance Explorer. On the Real-Time Monitoring tab, in the Monitor group, click System. Select the Select from predefined Data Sources option button and click Next.
  2. Select the newly created monitoring project and click Next.
  3. Specify the host that is to be monitored, preferably a machine running SunOs. Click Next to bring up a dialog for setting project attributes. This dialog displays the attributes that you set (except for the host which was specified previously).

    Therefore, the dialog displays the following attributes:

    • user
    • password
    • command
  4. Select the measures (in this case only a single measure) and click OK. The measures are then immediately handed over to the data collection mechanism.
