Resource monitoring data consists of a sequence of observations collected at regular intervals. Data can be collected in real time or retrieved from an IBM® Tivoli® Monitoring (ITM) server. In addition to performance data, resource monitoring data can provide a more complete view of a system to aid in problem determination. Examples of data that can be collected and analyzed include CPU usage (total, for individual processors, or even for individual processes), available memory, disk usage, and TCP/IP and network throughput.
