NonStop RPM 
This is a technical portal for the HP NonStop Real-time Process Monitoring product (RPM).

NonStop RPM is a real-time process monitor that displays instantaneous color-encoded busy alerts for busy processes by Cpu, Node, or Expand super-cluster.

RPM Feature Summary:

  • Engineered for HP NonStop servers.

  • Very efficient low-overhead algorithm
    requires neither Super nor Measure.

  • Discovers busiest processes in Cpus, nodes, across entire super-cluster, or across all nodes in an Expand network.

  • Continuous display of busy processes.

  • Can run directly from TACL prompt.

  • Instantaneous startup and display.

  • Run line configurable allows wide range of interfaces and configurations.

  • Fully configurable sample intervals.

  • Fast sample times down to 1 second.

  • ByCpu displays busiest processes in a particular Cpu

  • ByNode displays busiest processes in  entire NonStop node/segment.

  • Super-cluster support allows analysis of busiest processes across very large collection of NonStop nodes/segments.

  • Reports can be on entire cluster of Cpus/Nodes, or focus on a single Cpu.

  • Options for sorting, filtering, and color-encoding statistics in real-time.

  • Supports many interfaces including: TTY, T6530, VT100, fat, thin clients.

  • Monitors, analyzes, and displays both OSS and NSK process path/filenames.

  • Critical, Warning, Info alert thresholds clearly highlight busiest processes.


  • Example - Screen-shot on right:
     
    Red - implies process > 50% busy
    Yellow - implies process > 10% busy
    Cyan - implies process > 1% busy

RPM supports a range of device types including TTY, T6530, and VT100.
Support for VT100 devices allows RPM to "natively" run on any Windows
or Linux workstation without the need for any device emulators.

In the example above, RPM analysis appears in MS-Windows Telnet window. 
RPM multi-device support allows VT100 color-highlights as shown above. 
RPM also provides high-lighting on T6530 devices. See Examples for more info.
