Monitor

There are several NetWare monitoring tools that can be used either separately or in
conjunction with each other for viewing server statistics, health, activities and adjusting
parameters to optimize a NetWare 6 server. These tools are also an important diagnostics
aid for trouble-shooting and eliminating performance bottlenecks within the server.
This section focuses on the tools used to monitor the processor, memory, disk, and the
network subsystem performance and to make changes to SET parameters values to
maximize server throughputs. The tools discussed in this section are as follows:
Monitor
NetWare Remote Manager (NRM)
VTune
Monitor is typically used at the server console to display status information and statistics to
help manage the server, assess server memory and processor utilization. This tool also
allows the user to set server parameters without returning to the console prompt to use the
SET command.
To start this tool (shown in figure 1), type the following at the server console:
