HP-UX
HP-UX's performance and stability affects the performance of applications running on it. APM provides
the ability to monitor HP-UX 11.00 or later versions of the operating system.

APM monitors HP-UX operating system through CLI. When you add application monitors for HP-UX,
follow these guidelines:

Obtain the correct username and password of the Telnet or SSH user who has the HP-UX
administrator's privileges
To view traffic statistics in the monitor report of the HP-UX application, make sure at least one probe
is configured in APM. After an HP-UX application monitor is added, APM sends the IP address of
the monitored HP-UX application to the probes for traffic collection.
