HP DCE Measurement Service

Accessing DMS Data

For a definition of any metric, select the metric name by clicking on it using the right mouse button; a pop-up help window appears containing the definition of the metric.

DCE Process List Window

The DCE Process List Window displays a list of all processes running on your system that are DCE servers. For each process displayed, several metrics are available by default. You can customize the metrics displayed using the “Choose Metrics” command under the “Configure” pull-down menu. Each process shown can be selected or filtered.

For a selected process, you can obtain more detailed information. You generate this information by selecting the “Reports” pull down in this window and selecting “Process DCE Interface” or “Process Activity”. You can also select “Process Activity” by double-clicking on a process.

DCE Process Activity Window

The DCE Process Activity Window displays very detailed process information for a selected DCE process. All metrics available for the selected DCE process are displayed in a single window.

 

DCE Interface Window

 

Interface and operation names are not available in HP GlancePlus until

NOTE

 

after the first call to an interface. After the first call to an interface, the

 

interface name and all of its operation names become available, but

 

GlancePlus won’t pick up the interface and operation names unless you

 

close the window and then re-open it. Interfaces, such as rpc_mgmt

 

(which is exported by every DCE server and client), whose UUIDs and

 

version numbers match interfaces that have previously been registered

 

and named are available even before being called within a given process.

 

The DCE Interface Window displays a list of the interfaces associated

 

 

with a DCE process. For each process displayed, several metrics are

 

available by default. You can customize the metrics displayed using the

 

“Choose Metrics” command under the “Configure” pull-down menu.
