SharpShooter is a mainframe quality performance tool for monitoring, troubleshooting, and capacity planning in mission-critical production environments utilizing NFS, application, and DBMS servers. SharpShooter automatically baselines your server's NFS performance and uses this baseline to identify any server or client experiencing performance problems. SharpShooter probes the operating system to provide you with a system-level view of activity as well as probes the network to provide you with a server-level view of client activity.

SharpShooter's Event Monitor receives notification of exception conditions and helps you manage dozens of servers and hundreds of clients by exception. SharpShooter ensures that servers are always available and performing at maximum levels.

SharpShooter allows you to troubleshoot complex system problems. Its expert alarms automatically diagnose critical resource shortages. Real-time monitoring screens allow you to zero in on problem clients, hot disks, and overloaded CPUs to quickly identify the cause of the problem. SharpShooter's hypertext-based Solutions Guide assists in implementing real-world solutions to tough performance problems.

SharpShooter allows you to accurately plan for future growth. All performance data is archived in a central database for graphically oriented historical trend analysis. Over 75 presentation quality graphs can be produced on demand or produced automatically on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis for management reporting applications.
