Performance Monitor Access

The Performance Monitor displays a collection of statistics for one or more participating nodes. Statistics display in a dynamic chart in real time.

You can access the performance monitor at two different levels:

Multiplex level – monitor only one statistic, across multiple servers.
Server level – on a single server or a multiplex server, monitor up to ten statistics at a time.

In the Sybase Central tree view, select the server or multiplex, then click the Performance Monitor tab. You can change the type or contents of the performance monitor graphs.

Configuring Data Collection Rates
The Configure Collection Rates dialog is available only for the server-level performance monitor. Use this dialog to change the rates at which statistics are collected.
The Configure Collection Rates Dialog

The Change Servers to Monitor dialog is available only for the multiplex-level performance monitor.
