Sitworld: Put Your Situations on a Diet Using Indexed Attributes
During the course of a long sev1 at a large customer site a situation was identified that was delivering 1000+ rows of data every evaluation cycle. This was happening on a just a few Linux OS Agents and it was a contributor to the problems observed at the remote TEMS. The identification was from a TEMS Audit basic workload capture. 1000+ rows of data was a little unusual. That needed investigation and remediation. Read more here .

New Year's Resolution - Stay within the ITM Situation limits and avoid performance hangovers.
On December 25, 2013 a sev1 PMR arrived for an unstable remote TEMS. The remote TEMS ran for three hours and then went crazy. Agents could not connect and the hub TEMS decided the remote TEMS was offline. That condition repeated after a remote TEMS recycle. Nineteen remote TEMS were working fine but two remote TEMS were behaving in this strange way. Read more...

ItmSysp: The Creek is Rising...So Who is Using Your Fibre Channel Bandwidth?
Right behind my house is an old railroad line that has been converted into a hiking and biking trail called the American Tobacco Trail , and about a mile down, a creek runs under the trail. Of course, several other smaller creeks and run-offs converge to form this creek, and years ago, the railroad owners built a couple of pipes to allow the creek to keep flowing under the railroad tracks.
