1.1 Overview of the SSO series

As corporate networks get bigger, the workload on their business servers is increasing. Since a shutdown of these servers would also cause business activity to close down, the administrator must consider system resources management for these servers to be just as important as network management.

The SSO series is a group of programs that monitor system resources, processes, and services on network servers. If a specified threshold is exceeded, a process stops, or a change in the operating status of a service is detected, an event can be issued to notify the administrator. The notified administrator can then take measures, such as reducing the business processing load and using resources more efficiently, thereby lowering the total cost of ownership (TCO) of the system.

The features of the JP1/Cm2/SSO programs are as follows.

The main programs of the SSO series are SSO and APM. An overview of these programs is provided below.
