Entity Types and Specifications

Entity Types and Specifications

The measurement configuration describes each resource to be measured in terms of
its entity type and entity specification.

This list describes each entity type:

CLUSTER

Measures the number of FOX messages sent and received by all
processes on the local server. Currently supported only in D-series
PVUs.

CONTROLLER

Measures I/O activity on disk, tape, terminal, and other device controllers
on NonStop K-series servers.

CPU

Measures one or more CPUs on the local server.

DEVICE

In D-series RVUs, measures all devices on the local server except disks,
communication lines, subdevices, and asynchronous terminals. In
G-series RVUs, measures tape devices.

DISC

Measures one or more disks on the local server.

DISCOPEN

Measures the I/O operations performed by the disk process on a
specified file (physical file access). Reports measurements separately for
each opener process.

DISKFILE

Measures the I/O operations performed by the disk process on a
specified file (physical file access). Reports measurements collectively for
the whole file.

FILE

Measures the I/O operations performed by a user process on an explicitly
opened file (logical file access).

LINE

Measures communication lines.

NETLINE

Measures network communication lines.

OPDISK

Measures optical disks on the local server. Currently supported only in
D-series PVUs.

OSSCPU

OSS elements in each system processor.

OSSNS

OSS Name Server processes.

PROCESS

Measures system and user processes.

PROCESSH

Measures how often a program executes specified code ranges.

SERVERNET

Measures I/O activity on ServerNet addressable controllers (NonStop
S-series servers only). Measures interprocessor communication (IPC).
For HP NonStop ServerNet Cluster (Measure G08 and later), measures
remote interprocessor communication (RIPC).

SQLPROC

Measures SQL/MP processes.

SQLSTMT

Measures statements within an SQL/MP process.

SYSTEM

Measures network traffic through Expand line handlers.
