ASAPCONF File 
The ASAPCONF file contains configuration information for the ASAP and ASAP 
Extension subsystems. Before trying to start the ASAP and ASAPX subsystems, make 
sure that they are properly installed. 
ASAPDSK Object File 
The ASAP Monitor starts the Disk SGP on its node if Disk is enabled. The ASAP 
Statistics Gathering (ASAPDSK) Process collects availability information for the ASAP 
for all nonphantom disk devices. ASAPDSK uses the Measure Programmatic Interface 
to obtain raw disk counters from the disk process. For a complete list of Disk 
availability counters, see the DISK Command. 
ASAPEXP Object File 
The ASAP Monitor starts the Expand SGP on its node if Expand is enabled. The ASAP 
Statistics Gathering (ASAPEXP) Process collects availability information for the 
Expand line handlers. The utilization counters gathered include page faults, BCC, 
Naks sent and received, and packets sent and received. For a complete list of the 
Expand availability counters, see the LH Command. The Expand SGP communicates 
directly with the Expand Manager process to get Expand availability information. 
ASAPFIL Object File 
The ASAP Monitor starts the File SGP on its node if File is enabled. The ASAP 
Statistics Gathering (ASAPFIL) Process collects availability information for user-
selected files or subvolumes. The utilization counters gathered include percent file full, 
number of files in the subvolume, and number of partitions. For a complete list of file 
availability counters, see the FILE Command. 
ASAPMON Object File 
The ASAP node Monitor (ASAPMON) process manages all node-level processing for 
the network node on which it is running, and creates the Statistics Gathering 
processes (SGPs) in each CPU of the node where it is located. These SGPs collect 
CPU availability information and PROCESSBUSY availability information for the CPU 
in which it resides. System availability is the average availability for all the monitored 
CPUs on the node. The ASAP Monitor monitors CPU up and down messages, stop or 
abend messages, and creates the SGPs according to the changing status of the 
CPUs. The ASAP Monitor also starts the node entity SGPs, APP, Disk, File, Node, 
Process, RDF, Spooler, Tape and TMF. 
The ASAPMON processes use special NonStop OS procedures to collect CPU, 
Processbusy, and System Availability information. 
This object file is required on all monitored nodes.
