Problem: A monitored SAP ASE server is responding slowly. How do you tell whether the problem lies in the network or the server?
Solution: On the SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise monitor for the server in question, select Engines. On the Engines screen, select an engine from the Engines table and check the Engine CPU Utilization graph. If the graph shows high activity for the period of slow response, the engine might be overloaded. If the graphs for all engines on this server show low activity, a network problem is more likely.
