Gateway Systems Manager

Gateway Systems Manager 3.0 (GSM) lets you locally (using the Server console) and
remotely (using the Administrator console) monitor the health and performance of your
servers. From the Administrator console you can monitor any server that has one of the
two consoles installed. You can monitor critical indicators such as:
■ Hardware and software inventory and configuration changes
■ Computer health (temperature, voltage, free memory, and disk space)
■
Selected system events (specified by the administrator)
Printed documentation comes with the Gateway Systems Manager CD. You can find
additional documentation in the program's online help.
