Tivoli Monitoring for Transaction Performance (TMTP)

 < Day Day Up > 



TMTP includes a component called Enterprise Transaction Performance (ETP). The core of ETP is an Application Response Measurement (ARM) agent, which recognizes "start" and "stop" calls made by an application (or script), and uses them to report response time and other data in real-time and historical graphs.

Since ETP is fully integrated with the Tivoli product set, thresholds can be set on response time, and TEC events can be created when the response time is too long. ETP saves its data in a database, from which it can be displayed with TDS, or sent to the Tivoli Data Warehouse and harvested using TSLA.

This way, standard capabilities of the TMTP/ETP product are used to measure response time, which can also be viewed in real-time graphs such as the one shown in Figure B-1 on page 441.

In order for TMTP/ETP to record this data, the ARM API calls must be made from Rational Robot scripts.
