Dear Customers,
Available now for Digital UNIX systems is a tool called UniCensus.
It is a kit containing two ksh scripts and a gzip executable.
When the calling script "unicensus" is modified with your localized
information and ran it will collect system information. This can
be used for tuning, troubleshooting and diaster recovery. A key feature
is the HTML formatted output with a table of contents for jumping
around in the text output.
One of it features is, agian if setup/flagged, it will mail the output
into us here at the Digital UNIX Support group (CSC/Atlanta) at which
time our MailBOT will file it in a Web browseable directory here for
us to resource when needed.
"unicensus" has doc in comments, sets localized variables and calls
"uni_census" for the main body of work. "gzip" is used when zipping,
uuencodeing output for mailing into us here at the CSC.
This tool when used on a regular basis will provide an audit of your
configuration as well as a method to provide complete info when we
assist you in your troubleshooting and performance problems. It will
also decrease your problem cycle time, or better, prevent it.
Enjoy!
-Stephen Mullin Digital UNIX Support CSC/Atlanta
