Performance Tuning

1. Reducing the number of managed nodes for parallel configuration

distribution (

Configure Management Server

window, [Actions:

Server: Configure…]).

2. Making sure operators close any

View

- and

History-Browser

windows not currently required. This reduces:

• the amount of RAM required for the GUI

• the time required for updating Browser windows when new

messages are intercepted or acknowledged.

3. Minimizing overlapping operator workspaces. In other words, an

operator should only be allocated the same nodes and message
groups as another operator, if it is absolutely necessary.

❏ Increase the heartbeat-polling interval for the managed node activity

check.

Improve processing performance on the managed nodes by:

❏ Using message-text match conditions with the case-sensitive check as

often as possible. This flag can be set in several places, including the

Advanced Options

window of the

Add/Modify/Copy Logfile

window.

❏ Changing the sequence of the message and suppress conditions so

that those most frequently required are near the top of the list. This
prevents much wasted processing of conditions which cannot find a
match to a logfile. (

Message and Suppress Conditions

window.)

❏ Setting the polling interval for logfile (

Modify Logfile

window) and

threshold monitoring (

Modify Monitor

window) as high as is

possible, while at the same time receiving adequate data.
