Maintaining a PATHMON
Environment
System Maintenance Tasks
This section describes operations you need to perform on a regular basis to maintain a
PATHMON environment. Tasks you must perform regularly include:
•
Monitor status and performance by displaying information about your PATHMON
environment and its objects
•
Reconfigure, when necessary, to accommodate new application requirements,
new users, and so on
•
Manage exception conditions when and if they occur
At times, you might also need to perform other operations, such as:
•
Migrate your environment to a different system
•
Send messages, ranging from informative text to urgent requests, to users
•
Change the owner and security of your system
Displaying Information About a PATHMON
Environment
The PATHMON process maintains information about object configurations, object
status, and operation statistics.
You can display this information using these commands:
•
INFO command
•
STATUS command
•
STATS command
You use the STATUS command to determine the state of a PATHMON environment
and its objects: running, stopped, suspended, and so on. You use the INFO
command to display the current configuration of a PATHMON environment and
PATHMON-controlled objects. You use the STATS command to check statistics for
SERVER resources.
Note. Information about TCPs that appears in this section applies to your environment only if
you are using the Pathway/iTS product.
