2 Release Notes

Release date: 2017, March 28thXXX yyth

What's New in the Server?

PerformanceGuard 7.1 introduces two new widgets:

Application Performance Overview

This widget allows the operator to compare performance of multiple applications across multiple locations and multiple metrics. Using this widget, it is now possible to compare e.g. response times from a single computer with a location to help identify if response times experienced on that computer are also seen elsewhere. Setting up the widget has been improved by simplifying the process – just select from the list of defined applications, find the location in a tree structure, select the required metrics, and you are ready to go. The widget automatically selects the most suitable data resolution, and the operator can toggle min/max areas on and off. Setting up applications for this widget is described here.

Windows Performance Counters


Accessing the same performance counters for different computers has never been easier. You can set up Windows Performance Counters in this widget on the fly or in a predefined dashboard and select the desired computers. Selecting counters is now done from a tree structure, with the ability to select entire counter objects with all counters and instances with a single click.This release introduces one new widget:

BTM

This widget Makes it easy to graphically compare metrics for Business Transaction Monitoring (BTM) across individual computers and locations

Miscellaneous Improvements
