Shuss Systems Inc. announces the release of Permon[tm], a performance monitoring tool for UNIX System V based computers. If you are trying to get the most out the limited resources of your UNIX workstation, Permon[tm] is the product for you. It is a performance and resource monitoring tool for the 3B2 and several 386 based UNIX System V systems. Permon[tm] is a color character based system. Its display can be customized depending on your needs. In addition there are log and playback facilities, similar to the UNIX sar command. Finally, there is a report of overflowed resources. Some of the statistics that Permon[tm] can display are: Streams Allocation, I/O activity, CPU Usage, Memory and Swap usage and more. Developers can benchmark applications by monitoring system activity during execution. System administrators can keep a close watch on important statistics that affect performance. For Open Desktop users, a graphical version of ps is included. It uses the Motif user interface to allow you to examine statistics on running processes in a user friendly manner. It also allows the signaling and changing of nice values for a process. Also included is a 300 page book giving all the information needed to understand and act upon the information provided. Permon[tm] is available for the 3B2 running System V release 3.2, 386 based systems running SCO ODT or AT&T Unix System V release 3.2. The cost is only $495.00 per 3B2 or $295.00 per 386 based UNIX. Both are available now. Contact: Shuss Systems Inc., 1109 Amboy Ave, Suite 202, Edison, NJ 08837. Phone: 908-225-2424 Fax: 908-225-2505 Email: uunet!mabjab!info.
