This chapter provides descriptions for Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise Database Plug-In metric categories, and tables list and describe associated metrics for each category. The tables also provide user actions if any of the metrics for a particular category support user actions.
This chapter covers the metric categories that appear for all releases of System Monitoring Plug-In for Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise Database. If you see a release number against a metric name, then it indicates that the metric appears only for that particular release of the plug-in. Otherwise, the metric appears for all releases of the plug-in. For example, if you see For Release 6, then it indicates that the metric appears only for System Monitoring Plug-In for Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise (ASE) Release 6 (1.0.1.0.0).
Note that in Release 9, the metric collection has been disabled for the following metrics:
