RPM Overview – What is RPM?

•RPM - Real-time Process Monitor

• New Low-cost Point-product from HP NonStop

• Provides ultra-fast discovery and display of busiest Cpus and Processes

−By Cpu

−By Node

−By selected sets of Nodes

−Across entire cluster of NonStop nodes

RPM Benefits

• Ultra-fast discovery of Cpu and Process busy activity by Cpu, Node, or Clusters of nodes

• Continuously finds & shows busiest Cpus & Processes

• Simple, fast startup and display in less than 1 second with low overhead, eg TACL 1 > RPM

•RPM provides user defined color-encoded busy alerts−Critical - Red

−Warning – Yellow

− Informative – Blue

RPM Applicability• RPM was developed, evolved, and refined over multi-year period in HP Labs• Applicable regardless of what products or applications currently used• Runs on multiple nodes, multiple operating-systems, and multiple device-types• Supports

− J-, H-, G-, D-series - Operating Systems − Runs in mixed-version, multi-node, mixed-hardware networks

• Monitors many Cpus and/or Nodes at once

− Built based on long-term development requirement to understand real-time dynamics of software operating in large clusters of disparate NonStop servers

− Provides fast, real-time, super-cluster monitoring capabilities

• Customizable− RPM can support small, medium, and super-scalar display types:− From small 80x24 x16-Cpu displays− To medium 132x54 x64-Cpu displays− To giant 200x300 x1024-Cpu displays

• Device Types supported− TTY, T6530, VT100, ANSI− Disk file output− Process file output

RPM General Features

• Understands both NSK and OSS file/path names

• Install Wizard provides fast setup and configuration eliminates startup learning curve

• Supports many different device types including:ANSI, VT100, T6530, TTY, Disk, and Process−Understands T6530 devices for support of legacy

displays including 24x80 and 54x132 displays

−Understands ANSI/VT100 Super-Sized200x300 character displays which are native (and free) on all Windows and Linux boxes

−Supports generic TTY, Disk, Process I/O allowing smart client front-ends and historical stats archival

RPM Analysis Features

• Real-time - analysis-and-display of Cpu and Process busy activity by Cpu, node, selected nodes, or entire cluster.

• ByCpu – displays busiest processes in one or more Cpus

• ByNode - displays busiest processes in one or more nodes

• ADD node - commands allow multiple node analysis-display

• Results – are sorted, filtered, and color-encoded in real-time

• Statistics - synchronized across Cpus, nodes, and users(does NOT require Measure)

• Command line – configurable, 1 second response, example:− TACL 1 > RPM P\*, Rate 5, Entries 10, ByNode

− Extensive options provide wide-range of analysis-display capabilities

− Examples follow...

RPM Example #1 – Monitor all processes in one Cpu

• PB 3, ENTRIES 10, RATE 5

− PB 3 – displays busiest processes in Cpu 3

− ENTRIES 10 – displays the 10 busiest processes

RPM Sample - RATE discussion

• RPM - Easily and efficiently supports update rates down to 1 second

• Fast 1 Second rate possible due to low-overhead linear-scalable design

• Default is 10 seconds because rapid time varying data difficult for some people to follow

• When RPM RATE is 10 seconds the digits to right of %Busy decimal point %0.NN

represent Cpu milliseconds used. No other RATE provides this numerical convenience:

Milliseconds SET RATE Percent Cpu Busy

100ms 10 seconds 1.00% Cpu Busy





... ... ...

RPM Installation – Made easy using RPM Wizard

• RPM includes a configuration/install wizard: TACL 1 > RUN RPMWIZ

• Wizard interviews user and builds configuration

− Enter TYPE of device VT100 | T6530 | TTY ?

− Enter RATE interval in seconds 2, 3, 6, [10], .. ?

− Enter ENTRIES to display per Cpu or Node [3], 5, 10, ... ?

− Enter report Type Process | Cpu | Zoom ?

− Enter whether you want to sort by Cpu or [Node] ?

− Enter whether you want USEC time displayed Y/[N] ?

− Enter %BUSY threshold value [0] ?

− Enter INFO Busy% threshold value for INFO [1] ?

− Enter WARN Busy% threshold value for WARN [10] ?

− Enter CRIT Busy% threshold value for CRIT [50] ?

− ADD \sysname ? \A

− ADD \sysname ? \B

− ADD \sysname ? \C

− ADD \sysname ?

RPM – Interfaces

• RPM Supports wide-variety of device types− T6530

− ANSI/VT100 x Super-Sized

− TTY

− File or Process output

RPM – T6530 Device Interface - Example

• RPM supports T6530 Devices and emulators

• Example

− RPM 6530 video high lights >>

− P\*R10 E7Analyzes 3 nodes, shows 7 busiest processes per node

− RATE 10 aka R10 means update every 10 seconds

T6530 – ExampleP \*, ByNode, RATE 10, Entries 7

RPM – Super-Size ANSI displays

• RPM ANSI/VT100 device support:

• ANSI represents important class of display with very significant benefits:

− ANSI/VT100 provides ultra-high performance Super-Sized displays.

− No need for emulator on Windows or Linux. VT100 is natively supported on all Windows or Linux computers.

− ANSI/VT100 natively supported on virtually ANY Windows PC. From Windows just enter TELNET <ip-addr>

• Example

− C:\> TELNET <IP-address/DNS-name>

− Supports 200 line x 300 char displays

− Allows viewing busiest processes on 1000s of Cpus or 100s of Nodes in single screen

− RPM example to right shows busiest Cpus and Processes across many Cpus/Nodes

• How to create Windows TELNET shortcuts for NonStop servers see:http://NonstopRPM.com/Faqs.htm

RPM – TTY mode Interface - Example

• RPM supports TTY mode allowing output to generic devices, processes, and files

• RPM USEC option displays Time-of-Dayin Micro-Seconds− Nodes in TimeSync− Wine in different Zone− 100ms delta is I/O time

• RPM supports both NSK and OSSfile and path names

RPM TTY Mode - ExampleP \* TTY, ByNode, RATE 10, Entries 15, USEC
