Power Connections is a new component that focuses on non IBM i systems such as AIX, Linux, VIOS and HMCs. When viewing HMCs it provides the ability to view all the managed systems at a high level and then drill down into LPARs of interest. In this way users can pinpoint LPARs that may not be performing well and provide options to drill down into other iDoctor components for more detail.

When working with AIX and Linux systems options are provided to collect and analyze nmon data as well as work with file systems.

Power Connections also provides support to analyze data in iDoctor created SQLite databases which are very fast and require little setup. For more information on installation requirements click here. To access this free option within the GUI click the Power Connections button on the toolbar of the Main Window and add connections of the desired type(s.)

Important Note: Power Connections is provided as-is with no warranty.
