Set up the API to send performance data to the client performance monitor

The client performance monitor is a component of the Tivoli Storage Manager Administration Center that is used to display performance data that is collected by the API. The client performance monitor records and displays performance data for client backup, archive, and restore operations.

With performance monitoring enabled, you can display performance data that is collected by the API by using the performance monitor; the performance monitor is available in the Tivoli Storage Manager Administration Center. Starting with version 7.1, the Administration Center component is no longer included in Tivoli Storage Manager or IBM Storage Protect distributions. If you have an Administration Center that was installed with a previous server release, you can continue to use it to display performance data. If you do not already have an Administration Center installed, you can download the previously-released version from ftp://public.dhe.ibm.com/storage/tivoli-storage-management/maintenance/admincenter/v6r3/. For information about using the performance monitor, see the Tivoli Storage Manager version 6.3 server documentation.
