Two performance advisors are available: the Runtime Performance Advisor and the performance advisor in Tivoli Performance Viewer. The Runtime Performance Advisor runs in the Java virtual machine (JVM) process of Application Server; therefore, it does not provide expensive advice. In a stand-alone Application Server environment, the performance advisor in Tivoli Performance Viewer runs within the Application Server JVM. In a Network Deployment environment, the performance advisor in Tivoli Performance Viewer runs within the JVM of the node agent and can provide advice on resources that are more expensive to monitor and analyze. The Tivoli Performance Viewer advisor requires that you enable performance modules, counters, or both.
