The DNS workspaces provide data to help you monitor various aspects of DNS server activity. The DNS workspaces collection includes five separate views of DNS server activity, including the DNS Memory workspace, the DNS Zone Transfer workspace, the DNS Dynamic Update workspace, the DNS Query workspace, and the DNS WINS workspace. Use these table views to view the amount of memory used by a DNS server, the number of zone transfer requests received by a DNS server, the number of dynamic update requests received by a DNS server, the number of TCP and UDP queries received by a DNS server, and the number of WINS lookup requests received by the server.
The DNS Dynamic Update workspace includes an Activity chart and the DNS Dynamic Update table view. Additionally, IBM Tivoli Monitoring: Windows OS Agent provides a historical version of this workspace. You can request to view up to 24 hours of historical data for each component of this workspace. Based on the information that this workspace provides, you can recommend changes, set up situatioins, and verify that changes are improving performance.
