uptime software releases Performance and Availability Monitoring for SGI IRIX Enterprise Servers
IRIX support expands the power and flexibility of up.time
Toronto, Canada, January 13, 2003 - uptime softwareTM, an innovative provider of powerful, practical and affordable system management tools, is pleased to announce the release of up.timeTM agent support for Silicon Graphics (SGI) servers running IRIX, which is now available for evaluation download at www.uptimesoftware.com.
"up.timeTM now allows SGI IRIX server managers to quickly and easily centralize performance and availability management, prevent IRIX bottlenecks or server failures from impacting performance and service availability, and reduce the downtime and operational costs inherent in managing larger SGI server farms," says Alex Bewley, VP R&D, uptime software.
up.timeTM for SGI IRIX servers ensures high server performance and availability across the enterprise for the IRIX operating system. up.timeTM increases availability by reducing unplanned downtime and by setting thresholds for memory, CPU usage, disk capacity, file systems, logs, processes and swap file utilization. Users can then establish recovery actions for threshold attainment and anticipate problems before the IRIX OS is impacted.

attained
