Service Configuration Manager Service Configuration Manager can save the configuration of a Netfinity Manager service from a selected system to a service configuration file (SCF). Once created, SCF files can be used by Event Scheduler to restore the configuration to the same system, or it can be used (in conjunction with Event Scheduler) to duplicate that configuration on other similar systems you choose. Software Inventory Software Inventory enables the user to create and manage software product dictionaries that can be used to easily maintain an inventory of all application programs installed on the system. System Diagnostics Manager System Diagnostics Manager enables you to initiate a variety of diagnostic tasks on systems that support ROM-based diagnostics. The results of all previously run diagnostic sessions are stored and can be examined using System Diagnostics Manager to help diagnose and resolve system problems. System Information Tool The System Information Tool enables quick and convenient access to detailed information on the hardware and software configurations of the system. System Information Tool gathers information about almost any computer; however, the most detail is provided when this service is used with IBM computers. This service is available for both stand-alone and network use. System Monitor The System Monitor provides a convenient method of charting and monitoring the activity of a number of components in a system, including processor usage, disk space used, and ECC memory errors. These convenient monitors are detachable and scalable, enabling only the monitors needed to remain available at all times. Use the System Monitor Threshold Manager to set threshold levels for any of the monitored components. When exceeded, these thresholds will generate user-configured alerts. Data is continually collected from the time the system starts. A sophisticated data-handling technique is used to weigh the individual values, average concurrent samples, and post single values that accurately reflect long-term system activity. This technique allows system activity records to be maintained without creating enormous data files. This service is available for both stand-alone and network use. System Partition Access The System Partition Access allows for greatly simplified system partition file handling, both locally and remotely. Individual files and entire directories can be renamed or deleted from the system partition. Individual files can be renamed, deleted, or copied into the system partition. Also, the entire partition can be backed-up, restored, or deleted. This service is available for stand-alone use and network use by any system that has a System Partition. Netfinity Manager 137
