Section 5: File and Process
Monitoring
ASAP provides various ways to monitor files and processes and to control the amount
of data produced for those objects. The most common method of monitoring a file or
process is to specify the Guardian file or process name using the ASAP MONITOR
command. For example, the commands MONITOR FILE $DATA.SUBVOL.FILE and
MONITOR PROCESS $ABC will configure ASAP to monitor file $DATA.SUBVOL.FILE
and process $ABC. This section discusses more uncommon ways to monitor files and
processes using ASAP, which include:
Monitoring files and processes using wild-card names
Monitoring all the processes running from an object file
Monitoring OSS files
Monitoring processes executing from an OSS object file
Grouping files into logical, hierarchical groups of files
Grouping processes into logical, hierarchical groups of processes
Defining aggregate and aggregate-only domains at any level of the name hierarchy
