that enables you to quickly and easily monitor and manage the clustered systems
on your network. This service is available only on systems running Windows NT
Workstation 4.0.
Critical File Monitor
Critical File Monitor can warn you whenever critical system files on the system are
deleted or altered. Critical File Monitor 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 files that reside on a Netfinity Manager system.
DMI Browser
DMI Browser enables you to examine information about the DMI-compliant
hardware and software products installed in or attached to the system.
ECC Memory Setup
The ECC Memory Setup allows for monitoring of ECC memory single-bit errors,
and can automatically “scrub,” or correct, the ECC memory when errors are
detected. Also, a running count of single-bit errors can be kept, and can set a
single-bit error threshold 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.
Event Scheduler
Use Event Scheduler to automate many Netfinity Manager services. With Event
Scheduler, you can automatically gather and export System Information Tool,
System Profile, and Software Inventory data, distribute or delete files, restart
systems, execute commands, and access and manage System Partitions on all of the
Netfinity Manager systems on the network. Scheduled events can be performed
one time only, or can be performed according to a user-defined schedule.
File Transfer
Use the File Transfer service to easily send, receive, or delete files or entire
directories to and from remote Netfinity Manager systems on the network.
Power-On Error Detect
The Power-On Error Detect service can warn you immediately when a remote
Netfinity Manager system has start-up problems, enabling you to react quickly to
problems and minimize downtime.
Predictive Failure Analysis
The Predictive Failure Analysis (PFA) service enables continual monitoring and
managing of PFA-enabled hard disk drives. A PFA-enabled hard disk drive
features hardware designed to help detect drive problems and predict drive
failures before they occur, thus enabling you to avoid data loss and system
downtime.
Process Manager
Use Process Manager to view detailed information about all processes that are
currently active on any system. It is also possible to stop or start processes and
generate Netfinity Manager alerts if a process starts, stops, or fails to start within a
specified amount of time after system startup.
RAID Manager
The RAID Manager service can monitor, manage, and configure an assortment of
Redundant Arrays of Independent Disk (RAID) adapters and arrays without
requiring the RAID system to be taken offline to perform maintenance. Use the
RAID Manager to gather data about the system RAID array and RAID adapter,
