SM2 offers a range of optional monitoring programs that record additional data. A distinction
is drawn between privileged monitoring programs, which only an SM2 administrator can
start and stop, and monitoring programs for user-specific monitored objects, for which the
permission of the SM2 primary administrator is required (see the MODIFY-USER-
ADMISSION statement, page 98).

The monitoring programs are started and stopped by means of START-MEASUREMENT-
PROGRAM and STOP-MEASUREMENT-PROGRAM. For some monitoring programs,
monitoring parameters must be defined with the SET-<programname>-PARAMETER
statement and/or the objects to be monitored must be selected with ADD-... and REMOVE-
... before the program is started.

The data supplied by the monitoring programs is output on screen and/or to the SM2 output
file. To start monitoring programs that output their data exclusively to the SM2 output file,
an SM2 output file must be open. All other monitoring programs also write their data to the
SM2 output file when it is open. In the case of screen output with some monitoring
programs, it is possible to use a SELECT-... statement to select additional, object-specific
online reports.

The following table indicates the monitoring programs:
–

for which parameters must be defined or the objects to be monitored must be selected

–

that output their data exclusively to the SM2 output file

–

that output data in an online report on the screen

–

that output data in an online report only to privileged users

–

for which additional, object-specific reports can be selected.

The monitoring programs GS and GSVOL cannot be used with SR2000 as certain
hardware and system requirements are not met.
