  System and Performance Management Tools? 
 The Question is:
 
What performance monitoring tools analogous to Xload or perfmeter exist for
 VMS?  We would like to include basic performance data for VMS systems on our
 monitoring consoles in a concise format.
 
Xload and perfmeter are valuable in the amount of data and trend information
 displayed in a small space.
 
We have evaluated Unicenter (overkill) and Monitor (text based).
 
Thanks!
 
 
 The Answer is :
 
  The MONITOR recording file mechanism is directly available with
  OpenVMS.
 
  AMDS and Availability Manager provide display capabilities, and
  can monitor the performance of systems over a network.  Also
  available is the OpenVMS Management Station (OMS).  These tools
  are separately installed, and licensed with OpenVMS.
 
  Ports of xload certainly appear to be available for OpenVMS.
