74 Tivoli Business Systems Manager Version 2.1: End-to-End Business Impact Management
2.5.3 Health monitor
The health monitor keeps track of the health of IBM Tivoli Business Systems
Manager and enables you to view the performance and availability of IBM Tivoli
Business Systems Manager components. You can monitor the various services,
disk utilization, database space, system queues, and connections to the various
data sources.
The health monitor is installed onto a machine using the base services install
option. As an option you can select to install the health monitor server or health
monitor client.
The health monitor server is a Windows service that runs the HMSQueries.ksh
and records the output in a file under the Mgmt$Output directory. The health
monitor client then connects to this network share and displays system health
status, as shown in Figure 2-27.
