with the Expand Manager. The Expand SGP reports on objective thresholds when they
do not meet the user-defined values.
The Expand SGP gathers availability information, bundles it in a single message, and
forwards it to the ASAP Collect process. The Collect process unpacks the information
and stores it in the normalized ASAP database so the ASAP LH command or ASAP
Client can retrieve it.
File Statistics Gathering Process
File SGPs collect file availability information. You define which files or subvolumes the
File SGP monitors. File availability information is obtained using the Guardian API. The
File SGP reports on objective thresholds when they do not meet the user-defined
values.
File monitoring in ASAP 2.5 has been enhanced to provide logical grouping of files,
aggregation of file domains, and the ability to restrict the historical database to contain
only aggregate records for certain file groups.
Node Statistics Gathering Process
Node SGPs collect Expand end-to-end node statistics for the Node entity. These
processes use the Subsystem Programmatic Interface (SPI) to collect path information
and traffic statistics between two Expand end nodes.
The Node SGP gathers availability information, bundles it in a single message, and
forwards it to the ASAP Collect process. The Collect process unpacks the information
and stores it in the normalized ASAP database so the ASAP NODE command or
ASAP Client can retrieve it.
Process Statistics Gathering Process
Process SGPs collect availability information about user selected processes. Process
availability information is obtained using the Guardian API. The Process SGP reports
on objective thresholds when they do not meet the user-defined values.
Process monitoring in ASAP 2.4 has been enhanced to provide logical grouping of
processes, aggregation of process domains, and the ability to restrict the historical
database to contain only aggregate records for certain process groups.
RDF Statistics Gathering Process
RDF SGPs collect RDF availability information about the Extractor and Duplicator
nodes. The RDF SGP reports on objective thresholds when they do not meet the user-
defined values.
