SarCheck Version 7
Features: SarCheck Version 7 has been released for AIX, HP-UX, and both
Solaris SPARC and x86. A beta version will be available for Linux x86 shortly. Here is a
summary of what's appearing in the first releases of SarCheck Version 7. Not all of these
features will be available for all platforms:
- The ability to collect data on one system and analyze it on
another. UNIX versions of SarCheck have always needed to
collect some information from the kernel that they're running on,
and we'll be collecting all of the data so that the analysis can
take place on a different system.
- Analysis of networking statistics. We're going to
begin analyzing some statistics from netstat and nfsstat, along
with the values of various tuning parameters.
- The -newkey switch. This switch is currently in
the Linux version of SarCheck and has been so successful that we
will be adding it to the UNIX platforms.
- Supression of individual recommendations. We will
provide the ability to turn off some specific recommendations. This
is not included in the first beta versions but it's coming soon.
Version 7 is an evolutionary improvement to SarCheck and will be available for free
to licensees with valid subscriptions. These subscription holders are also eligible
to become beta testers, and beta testers usually help to influence the product
direction.
