Originally developed for IBM AIX performance monitoring and analysis, it is now an Open source project that made it available to many other systems. It is fully available for any Linux flavor, and thanks to the excellent work of Guy Deffaux, it also available for Solaris 10/11 systems using the sarmon project. The Nmon Performance monitor application for Splunk will generate performance and inventory data for your servers, and provides a rich number of monitors and tools to manage your AIX / Linux / Solaris systems. 1.1.1 Splunk versions It is recommended to use Splunk 6.5.x or superior to run the latest core application release. (in distributed deployments, only search heads may have this requirement) The last release can be downloaded from Splunk base: https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/1753 Compatibility matrix for core application: • Current major release Version 1.8.x: Splunk 6.5.x or superior, see 03 - Additional upgrade notes - Migrating from release prior to Version 1.7.x Stopped versions for older Splunk releases: • Last version compatible with Splunk 6.4.x with release 1.7.9 (Splunk certified): https://github.com/guilhemmarchand/nmon-for-splunk/releases • Last version compatible with Splunk 6.2.x with release 1.6.15 (Splunk certified): https://github.com/guilhemmarchand/nmon-for-splunk/releases • Last version compatible with Splunk 6.1.x, with release 1.4.902 (not Splunk certified): https://github.com/guilhemmarchand/nmon-for-splunk/blob/last_release_splunk_61x Compatibility matrix for TA-nmon and PA-nmon technical add-ons: • Both add-ons are compatible with any Splunk version 6.x (full instance of Universal Forwarder) 3 Nmon Performance monitor Splunk app for Unix and Linux systems Documentation, Release 1.8.0 The TA-nmon add-on available in the resources directory of the core application is designed to be installed on Universal Forwarders end clients or Heavy Forwarders, it is only compatible with Splunk 6.x (Splunk 5.x and prior will not be able to extract fields definition from generated data, leading to the application being unable to analyse performance data) The TA-nmon_selfmode is an alternative version of the TA-nmon that does not use the “unarchive_cmd” feature of Splunk, instead of this, the package implements a script input that will monitor nmon files and call required operation. Unless you have an unexpected issue with Splunk (and the unarchive_cmd feature), the TA-nmon should be used. The PA-nmon add-on available in the resources directory of the core application is designed to be installed on indexers (clusters or standalone), it is compatible with Splunk 6.x (Splunk 5.x shall not be used as the App intensively uses data model acceleration which is not available in Splunk 5.x and prior) The PA-nmon_light add-on is an alternative version of the PA-nmon that is designed to be installed on indexers (clusters or standalone) that must not monitor performances (such as Splunk cloud indexers), this package only contains parsing configuration. It excludes any kind of binaries, inputs or scripts. 1.1.2 Index time operations The application operates index time operation, the PA-nmon add-on must be installed in indexers in order for the application to operate normally. In complex distributed deployments, Heavy Forwarders (which are full Splunk in- stances) can operate as intermediate collectors between indexers and Universal Forwarder clients, in such a case Heavy Forwarders with the TA-nmon add-on installed will operate index time parsing and will free indexers from these tasks. 1.1.3 Index creation Since the major release V1.7, the core application does not create anymore any index at installation time. An index called “nmon” must be created manually by Splunk administrators. In distributed deployments using clusters of indexers, the PA-nmon add-on will automatically creates the “nmon” replicated index 1.1.4 Summarization implementation Nmon for Splunk App intensively uses data model acceleration in almost every user interfaces, reports and dashboards. The application provides multiple data models that have the acceleration activated by default using “All time” as the time range limit. Because of the richness of Nmon monitors, and with large deployments, accelerated data model offers an improved user experience. Note that some minor scheduled reports that keep users informed of the application activity in home page uses standard acceleration. 1.1.5 About Nmon Performance Monitor Nmon Performance Monitor for Splunk is provided in Open Source, you are totally free to use it for personal or professional use without any limitation, and you are free to modify sources or participate in the development if you wish. Feedback and rating the application will be greatly appreciated. • Join the Google group: https://groups.google.com/d/forum/nmon-splunk-app • App’s Github page: https://github.com/guilhemmarchand/nmon-for-splunk 4 Chapter 1.

  • How to Maintain Happy SAS® Users
    NESUG 2007 Administration & Support How to Maintain Happy SAS ® Users Margaret Crevar, SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC ABSTRACT Today’s SAS ® environment has high numbers of concurrent SAS processes and ever-growing data volumes. It is imperative to proactively manage system resources and performance to keep your SAS community productive and happy. We have found that ensuring your SAS applications have the proper computer resources is the best way to make sure your SAS users remain happy. INTRODUCTION There is one common thread when working with the IT administration staff at a SAS customer’s location with regard to what they can do to maintain happy SAS users, and that is to ensure that underlying hardware is properly configured to support the SAS applications. This is not a trivial task since different SAS applications need to have the hardware configured differently and depending on where you are with your understanding of how SAS will be used will help you evaluate options for the hardware, operating, and infrastructure (mid-tier) configuration. This is easier for existing SAS customers and more difficult with new SAS customers or new SAS applications at an existing SAS customer site. In this paper we will: • discuss briefly how SAS works, especially from an IO perspective • give some guidance on how to initially configure hardware for SAS usage • give some guidance on how to monitor the hardware to avoid running out of a computer resource • discuss if you should run all your SAS components under a single operating system or split them across multiple operating system This paper pulls together information that has been presented in recent SAS Global Forum and SUGI papers.

  • Optimizing AIX 7 Performance: Part 1, Disk I/O Overview and Long-Term Monitoring Tools (Sar, Nmon, and Topas) Martin Brown October 12, 2010 Ken Milberg
    Optimizing AIX 7 performance: Part 1, Disk I/O overview and long-term monitoring tools (sar, nmon, and topas) Martin Brown October 12, 2010 Ken Milberg Learn more about configuring and monitoring AIX 7 based on the investigations of AIX 7 beta compared to the original articles based on AIX 5L. The article covers the support for direct I/O, concurrent I/O, asynchronous I/O, and best practices for each method of I/O implementation. This three-part series on the AIX® disk and I/O subsystem focuses on the challenges of optimizing disk I/O performance. While disk tuning is arguably less exciting than CPU or memory tuning, it is a crucial component in optimizing server performance. In fact, partly because disk I/O is your weakest subsystem link, you can do more to improve disk I/O performance than on any other subsystem. View more content in this series Introduction A critical component of disk I/O tuning involves implementing best practices prior to building your system. Because it is much more difficult to move things around when you are already up and running, it is extremely important that you do things right the first time when planning your disk and I/O subsystem environment. This includes the physical architecture, logical disk geometry, and logical volume and file system configuration. When a system administrator hears that there might be a disk contention issue, the first thing he or she turns to is iostat. iostat, the equivalent of using vmstat for your memory reports, is a quick and dirty way of getting an overview of what is currently happening on your I/O subsystem.
