Servers & Virtualization
Monitor Health and Activity of Unix & Windows Servers
APG performs server monitoring by collecting raw performance metrics from Windows and UNIX servers using an agent-less mode that leverages the server's native SNMP service. Non-SNMP servers can be polled through PowerShell/WMI or SSH commands. Performance measurement can also be collected from the available management systems, such as VMware vSphere, Microsoft SCOM and Cisco UCS Manager.
The agent-less data collection has multiple advantages. It is easy to deploy, maintain and non intrusive. It reduces the risk of affecting production systems, and adapted to data-centers where server environments are fairly static by nature.
