- @@@STARTPACK(SarCheck;Performance analysis and tuning tool)
-
- <P>
- SarCheck is an inexpensive tool developed to help system administrators with
- UNIX performance tuning. It does this by monitoring system utilization,
- identifying problem areas, and recommending changes to the system's tunable
- parameters. SarCheck translates your system's sar reports into a Plain English
- report. SarCheck can detect CPU Bottlenecks and runaway processes, I/O
- bottlenecks, improper I/O load balancing, slow disk devices, memory bottlenecks
- and leaks, inefficient system buffer cache sizing, improper system table sizes,
- and inefficient PATH variables. The resource analysis and recommendations
- sections of SarCheck will analyze the data and make recommendations for
- gradual changes to your system. The capacity planning component of SarCheck
- will approximate the amount of capacity left on your system and determine which
- resource is likely to become exhausted first.

- The Skunkware release of SarCheck is the freely contributed UltraLite release.
