Preparing to Monitor Performance
The first required task is to understand what subsystems are critical to scrutinize. Begin with one or more of the following subsystems:
Processor
Memory
Disk
Network
Weaknesses in each of these areas can generate a significant bottleneck in one or more combinations of other areas. Looking at each one in detail will help determine what sort of impact might be incurred.
Monitoring Processor Utilization
The processor is the most obvious component that is critical to the performance of the system.
