Systemwalker Service Quality Coordinator can be used to manage the operation of a wide range of system types and sizes, from small-scale systems through to large-scale systems.
To improve the efficiency of the installation process, Systemwalker Service Quality Coordinator provides the following installation types that are suited to different objectives and roles.
Installation types | Function |
|---|---|
Enterprise Manager | Centrally manages the Managers located in each section. It can manage large-scale systems by constructing Managers in two tiers and performing load distribution. (Enterprise Edition only) |
Manager | Collectively manages the information collected by Agents and Proxy Manager. Manager can also act as servers for receiving information collected by Browser Agents and monitoring the operational status of services (HTTP/S, DNS, SMTP, or any port). |
Proxy Manager | Provides relay functions between Managers and Agents. If Managers and Agents have been separated by a firewall, site security can be enhanced by placing a Proxy Manager (which relays communications between Managers and Agents) on the site where the Agents reside. Proxy Managers also substitute for the role (normally performed by Managers) of the server that receives information collected by Browser Agents and monitors the operational status of services (HTTP/S, DNS, SMTP, any port). |
Operation Management Client | Connects to a Manager or Enterprise Manager to provide console functions for management and control. As well as being able to operate from a machine where an operation management client is installed, the person conducting operation management can also use a Web browser to connect to an operation management client from another machine to perform management operations. |
Agent for Server | Manages resource information within servers. |
Agent for Business | Manages resources relating to the following business systems, in addition to the Agent for Server functions: Web servers Application servers Database servers |
Browser Agent | Uses information about an end user accessing a Web server to measure the response actually felt by the end user. Only Windows can be used as the operation platform. |
Agent for Agentless Monitoring | Information on the OS/kernel and virtual resources can be managed remotely. |
