Pushing Config Data

Overview

The Trendics Remote Agent allows Pushing Config Data to Trendics where the data is stored, crunched, trended, and alerted upon as needed. Config Data refers to any data that can be used to tune server performance. Config Data can be pushed from standard application or custom applications running on the server.

For example, the Trendics Remote Agent might be configured to push the following data to Trendics...

• Linux Plug-In
  • Memory
  • Disk Size
• MySQL Plug-In
  • Key Buffer Size
  • Query Cache Size
