Critical File Monitor
Critical File Monitor can warn you whenever critical system
files on the system are deleted or altered. Critical File Moni-
tor makes it simple to generate Netfinity alerts when an
important System File (such as the CONFIG.SYS file)
changes date, time, size, or when it is deleted or created.
Critical File Monitor can also be used to monitor any other
f ile s th at res id e on a Net fin ity Ma nage r sys te m .
DMI Browser
DMI Brow s er enable s you to examine information about t he
DMI-compliant ha rdware an d software products instal led in
or attached to the system.
ECC Memory Setup
The ECC Memory Setup allows for monitoring of ECC mem-
ory single-bit errors, and can automatically "scrub," or cor-
rect, the ECC memory when errors are detected. Also, a
running count of single-bit errors can be kept, and can set a
single-bit erro r thr eshold that will cause a nonmaskable
interrupt (NMI) if the ECC single-bit error threshold is
exceeded. This service is available for both stand-alone and
network use by any system that has ECC memory.
