About Siebel ARM Files

When enabled, the Siebel ARM feature saves binary Siebel ARM files in the following locations:

Siebel Server log subdirectory on Windows: SIEBSRVR_ROOT\log
Siebel Server log subdirectory on UNIX: SIEBSRVR_ROOT/enterprises/EnterpriseServerName/SiebelServerName/log

Siebel ARM names the binary data files as in the following example:

T201707081744_P001768_N0006.sarm

where:

T is a constant value, indicating that timing convention information follows.
201707081744 indicates the date and time of the Siebel ARM file. This example indicates that this file was saved on July 8th, 2017 at 17:44.
P is a constant value, indicating that process ID information follows.
001768 indicates the process ID on which Siebel ARM collects data.
N is a constant value, indicating that Siebel ARM ID information follows.
0006 indicates the Siebel ARM log ID number for the listed process ID. Starts at 0000 and increments until it reaches 9999, at which point it wraps around to 0000.
.sarm is the Siebel ARM file extension.

To analyze the data contained in the binary Siebel ARM files, use one of the following tools, which present the collected data in a readable format:

Siebel ARM Query Tool. This command-line tool allows you analyze the performance data collected by Siebel ARM. The Siebel ARM Query Tool is the recommended tool for analyzing Siebel ARM data. For more information about the Siebel ARM Query Tool, see "Analyzing Siebel ARM Files Using the Siebel ARM Query Tool".
Siebel ARM Analyzer Tool. This command-line tool allows you analyze the performance data collected by Siebel ARM. However, the Siebel ARM Query Tool is recommended for use over the Siebel ARM Analyzer Tool. For more information about the Siebel ARM Analyzer Tool, see "Analyzing Siebel ARM Files Using the Siebel ARM Analyzer Tool".
