PLAISTOW, NH (May 17, 1999) Aurora Software Inc. is shipping the 64-bit version of SarCheck for Solaris SPARC. SarCheck is a performance management tool designed to assist system administrators in the analysis of system performance by translating the output of several monitoring utilities into a plain English or HTML-formatted report. SarCheck identifies performance bottlenecks, finds runaway processes and memory leaks, recommends changes to various tunable parameters and hardware configuration, and quantifies remaining system capacity.
SarCheck is designed to help system administrators learn more about how their systems work by explaining resource utilization and capacity limits in plain English. The software also helps the administrator to diagnose problems remotely, and to quickly recommend or implement corrective actions. Because SarCheck has been specifically designed with safety in mind, it will make detailed recommendations instead of attempting to fix problems itself. It will also explain the reasons for its recommendations.
SarCheck reports consist of three sections and a summary. The first section contains recommendations which can be used to improve system performance. These changes include changes to tunable parameters, disk load balance, and hardware upgrades. The second section is an analysis of all system resources monitored by SarCheck. The analysis section contains insights that can help an administrator, even when no resource bottlenecks were detected. The final section, Capacity Planning, can be used to approximate the amount of capacity left on a system.
Pricing for a single SarCheck license for Solaris SPARC starts at $625 and other licensing options are available. SarCheck runs on many popular UNIX platforms and support for other languages is planned. Contact Aurora Software Inc., PO Box 1033, Plaistow NH 03865. Tel.: (603) 382-4200, fax: (603) 382-4247.
