commands

and

paths.

Typeface

conventions

This

guide

uses

the

following

typeface

conventions:

Bold

The

publications

in

this

library

use

the

UNIX

convention

for

specifying

environment

variables

and

for

directory

notation.

When

using

the

Windows

command

line,

replace

$variable

with

%variable%

for

environment

variables

and

replace

each

forward

slash

(/)

with

a

backslash

(\)

in

directory

paths.

The

names

of

environment

variables

are

not

always

the

same

in

Windows

and

UNIX.

If

you

are

using

the

bash

shell

on

a

Windows

system,

you

can

use

the

UNIX

conventions.

Tivoli

command

syntax

The

following

special

characters

define

Tivoli

command

syntax:

[

]

Identifies

elements

that

are

optional.

Required

elements

do

not

have

brackets

around

them.

...

Indicates

that

you

can

specify

multiple

values

for

the

previous

element.

Separate

multiple

values

by

a

space,

unless

otherwise

directed

by

command

information.

If

the

ellipsis

for

an

element

follows

a

closing

bracket,

use

the

syntax

within

the

brackets

to

specify

multiple

values.

For

example,

to

specify

two

administrators

for

the

option

[–a

admin]...,

use

–a

admin1

–a

admin2.

If

the

ellipsis

for

an

element

is

within

the

brackets,

use

the

syntax

of

the

last

element

to

specify

multiple

values.

For

example,

to

specify

two

hosts

for

the

option

[–h

host...],

use

–h

host1

host2.

|

Indicates

mutually

exclusive

information.

You

can

use

the

element

on

either

the

left

or

right

of

the

vertical

bar.

{

}

Delimits

a

set

of

mutually

exclusive

elements

when

a

command

requires

one

of

them.

Brackets

([

])

are

around

elements

that

are

optional.

In

addition

to

the

special

characters,

Tivoli

command

syntax

uses

the

typeface

conventions

described

in

the

Preface

of

this

document.

The

following

examples

illustrate

the

typeface

conventions

used

in

Tivoli

command

syntax:

v

wcrtpr

[–a

admin]...

[–s

region]

[–m

resource]...

name

The

name

argument

is

the

only

required

element

for

the

wcrtpr

command.

The

brackets

around

the

options

indicate

they

are

optional.

The

ellipsis

after

the

–a

admin

resource

option

means

that

you

can

specify

multiple

administrators

multiple

times.

The

ellipsis

after

the

–m

resource

option

means

that

you

can

specify

multiple

resources

multiple

times.v

wchkdb

[–o

outfile]

[–u]

[–x]

{–f

infile

|

–i

|

object...}

The

–f,

–i,

and

object

elements

are

mutually

exclusive.

Braces

that

surround

elements

indicate

that

you

are

including

a

required

element.

If

you

specify

the

object

argument,

you

can

specify

more

than

one

object.

Running

Tivoli

commands

You

can

perform

system

operations

from

a

UNIX

or

Windows

command

line

interface

(CLI)

in

addition

to

using

the

Tivoli

desktop.

Operations

that

you

run

from

the

command

line

are

referred

to

as

CLI

commands.

Consider

using

the

command

line

interface

rather

than

the

graphical

user

interface

to

invoke

a

Tivoli

management

application

operation

in

the

following

circumstances:

v

You

do

not

have

access

to

a

graphical

user

interface,

such

as

when

you

dial

in

over

a

modem.

v

You

want

to

group

a

number

of

operations

together

inside

a

shell

script.

v

You

want

to

use

accessibility

tools

that

require

text-based

input

of

commands.

Most

Tivoli

CLI

commands

begin

with

the

letter

w

to

identify

them

as

Tivoli

commands.

Command

names

use

a

w+verb+object

syntax.

Example:

Use

the

wdmrm

command

to

add

or

remove

a

resource

model.

Most

Tivoli

commands

run

within

a

bash

shell

on

a

managed

node

or

on

a

Tivoli

management

region

server.

A

shell

is

a

command

interpreter

that

enables

the

operating

system

to

process

commands.

You

can

run

commands

from

a

shell

command

line

or

include

them

in

shell

scripts

on

UNIX

or

Windows

operating

systems.

A

Tivoli

management

region

server

is

a

Tivoli

server

and

the

set

of

clients

that

it

serves.

A

Tivoli

management

region

addresses

the

physical

connectivity

of

resources

whereas

a

policy

region

addresses

the

logical

organization

of

resources.

Before

running

Tivoli

commands,

you

must

set

the

Tivoli

environment

variables

for

the

shell.

The

managed

node

or

Tivoli

management

region

server

installation

process

supplies

the

scripts

to

set

the

Tivoli

environment

variables.

The

following

sections

of

this

guide

contain

descriptions

of

the

procedures

to

run

these

scripts:

“Setting

the

Tivoli

environment

on

UNIX

operating

systems”

on

page

5

and

“Setting

the

Tivoli

environment

on

Windows

operating

systems”

on

page

5.

You

must

also

have

the

appropriate

Tivoli

authorization

role

for

running

each

command.

Refer

to

the

reference

information

for

each

command

to

see

the

required

authorization

role.

Note:

Some

Tivoli

commands

can

run

on

an

endpoint.

To

the

Tivoli

environment

variables

on

an

endpoint,

Running

Tivoli

commands

on

UNIX

operating

systems

The

UNIX

operating

systems

contain

shells.

Tivoli

commands

can

run

in

the

Bourne,

Korn,

C,

and

bash

shells.

The

Bourne

shell

is

the

standard

UNIX

shell.

Every

UNIX

system

includes

the

Bourne

shell.

The

Korn

shell

supports

the

features

of

the

Bourne

shell

and

contains

extensions

applicable

only

to

the

Korn

shell.

The

C

shell

name

comes

from

the

C

programming

language

syntax.

The

bash

shell

supports

many

features

of

the

UNIX

shells.

Both

UNIX

and

Windows

systems

use

the

bash

shell.

Running

Tivoli

commands

on

Windows

operating

systems

When

you

install

a

Windows

managed

node

or

Windows

Tivoli

management

region

server,

the

installation

process

copies

the

bash

shell

executable

file

to

the

machine.

The

bash

shell

supports

many

UNIX

commands

and

UNIX

command

syntax.

An

example

is

the

forward

slash

(/)

for

the

directory

separator.

The

bash

shell

supports

the

features

of

the

Bourne

shell,

as

well

as

contains

extensions

applicable

only

to

the

bash

shell.

Note:

You

can

use

the

Windows

MS-DOS

shell

instead

of

the

bash

shell

to

run

most

Tivoli

commands

(after

you

set

the

Tivoli

environment

variables

with

the

%SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\Tivoli\setup_env

command).

However,

some

commands

and

Tivoli

tasks

require

a

bash

shell

to

run

successfully.

All

examples

of

Tivoli

commands

in

Tivoli

publications

use

bash

shell

syntax.

Where

to

find

additional

information

about

shells

The

following

lists

include

resources

where

you

can

find

additional

information

about

the

various

shells.

These

resources

were

available

at

the

time

the

lists

were

created.

The

lists

do

not

show

all

of

the

material

that

is

available,

and

Tivoli

does

not

provide

opinions

or

recommendations

about

any

of

these

resources.

to

refer

to

Tivoli

endpoints

and

hosts.

For

information

on

IBM

Tivoli

Monitoring,

see

the

IBM

Tivoli

Monitoring

User’s

Guide.

Endpoint

Name

The

Tivoli

Management

Framework

product

assigns

the

endpoint

label

when

creating

the

endpoint

within

the

Tivoli

environment.

Some

IBM

Tivoli

Monitoring

commands

use

this

label,

but

an

IBM

Tivoli

Monitoring

command

cannot

assign

or

modify

the

label.

This

label

is

usually

a

string,

such

as

Endpoint1.

The

variable

for

this

label

is

EndpointName.

Host

Name

The

host

name

is

the

name

that

is

assigned

to

the

server

within

the

network.

Some

IBM

Tivoli

Monitoring

commands

use

this

name,

but

an

IBM

Tivoli

Monitoring

command

cannot

assign

or

modify

the

name.

The

network

determines

the

format

of

this

name.

The

name

can

be

a

string,

such

as

acme.sp.dynamite.com,

or

an

IP

address,

such

as

123.123.123.1.

The

Description

Resource

model

distribution

Distribute

this

resource

model

to

Windows-based

operating

systems.

The

Logical

Disk

resource

model

detects

bottlenecks

associated

with

all

logical

disks,

such

as

C:,

that

are

configured

on

your

systems.

The

Logical

Disk

resource

model

highlights

the

following

areas:

v

Excessive

Disk

Usage

The

percentage

of

used

disk

needs

to

be

altered

when

monitoring

file

servers

for

bottlenecks.

File

servers,

print

servers,

and

mail

servers

use

a

high

percentage

of

disk

space.

However,

workstations

typically

use

a

high

percentage

of

disk

space

in

short

bursts.

When

disk

usage

is

significantly

increased,

performance

in

processor

speed

and

general

system

response

decline.

v

High

Transfer

Rate

This

indicates

the

raw

amount

of

data

that

is

transferred

through

the

disk.

The

maximum

transfer

rate

that

a

disk

subsystem

can

handle

depends

on

the

type

of

hard

drive,

the

type

of

controller,

the

drive

configuration,

and,

in

the

case

of

most

IDE-based

hard

drives,

the

speed

of

the

processor.

v

Low

Disk

Space

Low

disk

space

makes

it

impossible

to

reboot

a

Windows

machine.

The

threshold

value

is

based

on

the

percentage

of

free

space

on

the

disk.

Administrators

monitoring

systems

with

disks

of

less

than

one

gigabyte

should

raise

this

value.

A

good

guideline

is

to

keep

enough

free

disk

space

to

allow

the

pagefile

to

reach

its

maximum

size

limit.

This

resource

model

detects

bottlenecks

specifically

associated

with

RAM.

Because

most

devices

in

the

system

use

RAM,

bottlenecks

and

problems

will

usually

appear

here.

The

Memory

resource

model

highlights

the

following

areas:

v

Cache

When

cache

is

used,

four

different

areas

are

examined:

Copy

reads

Data

maps

MDL

reads

Pin

reads

The

Hit

Percentage

Rate

is

examined

for

each

area.

This

gives

an

idea

of

how

much

data

was

supplied

by

the

cache

and

how

much

was

supplied

from

another

location.

If

cache

is

used,

ideally

it

will

provide

at

least

70%

of

the

data.

A

lower

percentage

indicates

data

is

lost

in

the

cache

or

that

the

cache

is

not

large

enough.

v

Committed

bytes

Committed

bytes

indicate

the

amount

of

virtual

memory,

in

bytes,

that

have

been

committed.

The

commit

limit

is

the

current

limit

of

physical

space

(either

RAM

or

in

the

pagefile)

that

is

available

for

the

committed

bytes.

If

the

committed

bytes

become

larger

than

the

commit

limit,

the

pagefile

must

be

enlarged.

A

pagefile

that

is

constantly

in

flux

causes

performance

problems

because

the

system

spends

time

extending

or

shrinking

the

pagefile.

This

process

also

involves

the

slowest

part

of

the

system

and

is

prone

to

becoming

a

bottleneck.

The

committed

bytes

has

an

upper

limit.

The

value

is

dictated

by

a

setting

in

the

system

control

applet.

If

the

pagefile

reaches

its

maximum

limit,

it

is

assumed

that

available

memory

will

be

extremely

low.

In

this

situation,

a

major

performance

degradation

can

be

expected.

If

committed

bytes

continues

to

grow

and

there

is

not

enough

available

physical

space

to

hold

the

committed

memory,

a

core

dump

will

probably

occur.

The

initial

size

of

the

pagefile

is

best

determined

by

the

amount

of

RAM

in

the

system.

A

good

guideline

is

150%

of

the

amount

of

RAM.

v

Low

available

memory

Available

memory

is

checked

constantly

to

ensure

it

does

not

drop

below

10

MB.

When

available

memory

is

low,

performance

declines

slightly,

but

the

system

still

works

correctly.

Inform

your

system

administrator

needs

to

know

that

memory

is

low

to

consider

monitoring.

As

available

memory

drops,

the

Windows

operating®system

attempts

to

keep

the

available

memory

above

4

MB.

At

this

point,

memory

is

too

low

and

the

operating

system

spends

more

time

keeping

memory

available

than

processing

requests.

Additionally,

high

paging

begins

to

occur,

and

the

pagefile

reaches

its

maximum

size.

v

Memory

leaks

These

three

different

areas

of

memory

need

to

be

analyzed

for

a

possible

leak:

Private

bytes

System

code

System

drivers

The

top

five

processes

are

examined

in

the

Private

Bytes.

The

total

pools

of

System

Code

and

System

Drivers

are

also

examined

for

growth.

This

generally

indicates

a

memory

leak

in

the

affected

area

of

memory.

v

Paging

and

page

faulting

Page

Faults

occur

when

Windowsmoves

a

piece

of

data

to

another

portion

of

RAM

or

to

the

pagefile.

Paging

moves

data

to

the

hard

drive,

so

it

is

incorporated

in

the

counters

for

Page

Faults.

Page

faults

are

considered

high

when

they

reach

approximately

350

page

faults

per

second.

Paging

is

considered

high

at

approximately

60

pages

per

second.

Performance

declines

because

the

system

moves

data

to

and

from

the

hard

drive,

typically

the

slowest

component

of

the

system.

The

hard

drive

and

processor

become

busier

and

overall

performance

of

the

machine

decreases.

specifically

associated

with

all

installed

on

Windows-based

operating

systems.

Note:

The

Network

Card

resource

model

generates

the

subset

of

events

related

to

network

segments

only

on

Windows

operating

systems.

For

does

not

highlights

the

following

areas:

v

Broadcast

If

too

much

of

the

network

is

broadcast

frames

for

an

extended

period

of

time,

segment

the

network

further

or

redesign

the

network

to

use

fewer

broadcast

frames.

v

Network

card

The

core

of

the

network

subsystem

is

the

network

card.

If

a

network

card

is

not

fast

enough

to

handle

the

number

of

requests

from

other

nodes

on

the

network

or

from

internal

counterparts,

all

aspects

of

the

network

subsystem

are

affected.

Tests

are

made

to

determine

if

a

network

card

is

too

slow,

or

if

there

is

too

much

data

trying

to

be

sent

through

the

network.

v

Percentage

To

identify

the

network

component

overused,

tests

are

performed

on

the

percentage

of

the

network

segment

used,

the

server

service,

and

the

workstation

service

(redirector).

This

reveals

if

the

is

part

of

a

network,

is

servicing

too

many

requests,

or

is

requesting

too

much.

or

to

that

can

be

set

for

the

Network

shows

the

name,

a

short

description,

and

the

default

value.

Threshold

Description

Default

High

Current

Commands

Modifier

(HighCurrCmdsMod)

This

threshold

counts

the

number

of

requests

to

the

redirector,

or

workstation

service,

that

are

currently

queued

for

service.

If

this

number

is

much

larger

than

the

number

of

network

cards

installed

in

the

computer,

congestion

can

occur.

This

threshold

is

calculated

by

multiplying

the

number

of

network

cards

in

the

system

by

this

value.

10

High

Errored

Out

Ratio

(HighErroredOutRatio)

This

threshold

is

a

percentage

generated

by

dividing

the

number

of

sessions

errored

out

by

the

sum

of

the

sessions

errored

out,

forced

off,

and

logged

off.

50

High

Output

Queue

Length

Modifier

(HighOutputQueueLengthMod)

This

threshold

adjusts

the

output

queue

length

for

a

network

card.

It

is

calculated

by

adding

the

number

of

network

cards

in

the

system

to

this

value.

3

High

Percent

Broadcast

(HighPercentBroadcast)

The

percentage

of

broadcast

frames

on

the

internal

network

segment

must

not

exceed

this

threshold.

HighPercentBroadcast

is

a

Windows

NT-only

property;

therefore

this

threshold

is

only

valid

when

running

the

Network

Interface

Card

resource

model

on

a

Windows

NT

operating

system.

For

other

Windows

operating

systems,

this

threshold

is

ignored.

90

High

Percent

Bytes

Per

Second

(HighPercentBytesSec)

This

threshold

is

the

maximum

percentage

of

network

card

bandwidth

that

can

be

used

by

a

process,

such

as

the

server

service

or

the

redirector,

or

workstation

service.

The

bandwidth

of

the

network

card

is

multiplied

by

this

value

to

determine

the

threshold,

which

is

then

used

to

determine

if

the

data

transfer

rate

is

excessive.

9

High

Percent

Utilization

(HighPercentUtilization)

This

threshold

is

the

maximum

percentage

of

Physical

resource

model

Description

Resource

model

distribution

Distribute

this

resource

model

to

Windows-based

operating

systems.

The

Physical

Disk

resource

model

detects

bottlenecks

associated

with

the

physical

disks

that

are

configured

on

the

system.

This

resource

model

highlights

the

following

areas:

v

Bytes

transferred

per

second

Bytes

transferred

per

second

indicates

the

raw

amount

of

data

that

is

transferred

through

the

disk.

The

maximum

transfer

rate

per

second

a

disk

subsystem

can

handle

depends

on

the

type

of

hard

drive,

the

type

of

controller,

the

drive

configuration,

and,

in

the

case

of

most

IDE-based

hard

drives,

the

speed

of

the

processor.

Data

transfer

rate

can

be

a

good

indicator

of

whether

too

much

data

is

routed

through

the

disk.

v

Percentage

usage

Another

indicator

that

a

disk

is

over

worked

or

is

causing

a

bottleneck

is

the

percentage

usage

of

the

disk.

This

threshold

needs

to

be

altered

when

monitoring

file

servers

for

bottlenecks.

File

servers,

print

servers,

and

mail

servers

can

expect

to

use

a

high

percentage

of

disk

space.

For

workstations,

the

high

percentage

of

disk

usage

is

typically

experienced

in

short

bursts.

Workstations

experiencing

high

disk

usage

will

see

declining

performance

in

processor

speed

and

general

system

response.

In

these

situations,

a

high

percentage

usage

of

the

disk

creates

a

bottleneck.

With

systems

running

with

more

than

one

processor,

it

is

not

always

obvious

that

a

CPU

is

not

working.

A

check

is

made

to

ensure

that

all

CPUs

are

utilized

at

approximately

the

same

rate.

If

there

are

problems

with

a

CPU,

the

CPU

activity

will

either

be

abnormally

high

or

totally

inactive,

in

either

case

this

check

will

detect

the

CPU

that

is

faulty.

Thresholds

Because

the

Service

resource

model

determines

primarily

whether

a

service

is

running

correctly,

there

are

no

real

numeric

thresholds

to

be

measured

or

exceeded.

In

this

resource

model,

the

threshold

values

act

as

numerical

flags

where

0

is

false

and

any

other

number

is

true.

With

this,

the

user

can

determine

which

services

they

want

to

monitor.

For

example,

in

the

threshold

section,

LanmanServer

(Server

service)

is

set

to

1

meaning

the

resource

model

checks

if

the

Server

service

is

running.

System

Administrators

can

decide

that

the

Server

service

does

not

need

to

run

on

certain

systems.

On

those

systems

they

can

change

the

profile

to

set

the

Server

threshold

value

to

0

and

the

resource

model

does

not

check

if

the

Server

service

is

running.

The

following

table

lists

the

thresholds

that

can

be

set

for

the

Services

For

each

the

table

shows

the

name,

a

short

description,

and

the

default

threshold

determines

if

If

the

creates

the

Tivoli

Monitoring,

a

threshold

is

a

named

property

with

a

user-defined

value.

Typically,

the

value

specified

for

a

threshold

represents

a

significant

level

of

a

performance-related

Tivoli

Distributed

Monitoring

(Classic

Edition).

A

Tivoli

application

that

provides

distributed

monitors

for

monitoring

system

resources.

The

application

initiates

necessary

corrective

actions

and

informs

system

administrators

of

potential

problems.

These

monitors

can

be

centrally

configured

and

deployed

to

monitor

individual

machines.

The

application

also

integrates

seamlessly

with

other

Tivoli

Availability

solutions,

including

the

IBM

Tivoli

Enterprise

Console.

Previously

called

Framework,

that

are

installed

at

a

location

and

that

address

issues

across

many

platforms.

In

a

can

distribute

software,

manage

user

configurations,

change

is

required

to

run

the

enables

the

integration

of

systems

applications

from

Tivoli

Systems

Inc.

and

the

Tivoli

Partners.

In

a

Tivoli

environment,

the

Tivoli

Management

Framework

is

installed

on

every

client

and

server;

however,

the

TMR

of

clients

that

it

serves.

An

organization

can

have

more

than

one

region

addresses

the

physical

connectivity

of

resources

whereas

a

Console.

In

IBM

Tivoli

Monitoring,

a

component

that

displays

real-time

and

historical

data

for

any

resource

model

at

any

endpoint.

Using

the

graphical

user

interface,

users

can

locate

individual

problems

associated

with

one

or

more

resources.

The

status

is

displayed

as

a

value

between

0

(representing

an

identified

problem,

that

is,

an

event)

and

100

(representing

no

recent

indications).

Users

can

select

views

of

resource

problems

as

tabular

data,

different

types

of

charts,

and

so

on.
