[. . . ] In server management, system stability is a major factor, with efficiency, costeffectiveness, and convenience following close behind. To comply with this, we have created a reliable and user-friendly ASWM Enterprise monitoring tool. The ASWM Enterprise is a web-based interface that allows system administrators to conveniently manage computers either locally (from the same server), or remotely (using a web-browser). With its colorful, graphical, and informative interface, the ASWM Enterprise makes server management a delightful experience!
1. 1. 1
How ASWM Enterprise works
The ASWM Enterprise is composed of an "agent" that generally acts as a data collector, and a set of HTTP web pages that serve as the user interface (UI). The data collected by the agent, which are essential for the continuous monitoring operations performed by ASWM Enterprise, are displayed in the UI. In the monitoring process, the agent basically keeps track of the hardware and software status of the system. The agent has "sensors" that monitor fan rotation speeds (in RPM), working voltages, motherboard and CPU temperatures, and the backplane (if present). In addition, the agent also monitors hard disk drives health status through the SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) feature, space utilization of a file system, CPU or system memory loading, and even the traffic status of a network device. The agent records the history of the detected status of all monitored hardware items. The status record includes the time of alert events (fan, voltage, or temperature), and the type of alert event (critical, warning, or normal). You can also configure ASWM Enterprise to react to exceptional situations. The SupportStatus shows Unknown when WMIEnable shows OFF.
