Chapter 8 | Optimizing your FileMaker Server deployment 77

Monitoring performance in OS X

Monitoring is an important part of any server deployment; FileMaker Server is no exception. The

reasons for performing monitoring are planning, resource management, and troubleshooting.

X has four primary tools that you can use for monitoring server performance: Activity Monitor,

the OS

X Server application, Top, and System Activity Reporter (SAR).

1 Activity Monitor is found in the /Applications/Utilities folder. It supplies a list of all the processes

currently running as well as some information about the overall activity on the computer.

1 The OS X Server application available in the Mac App Store provides tools that can be used to

administer various services on the operating system and provide a graphical interface for

monitoring CPU usage, network traffic, and memory usage. However, be aware of possible

conflicts when using OS

X Server to enable any HTTP Services (see “Using the Apache web

server in OS X” on page 72).

1 Top is a command-line program that is part of the UNIX engine for OS X. When running Top,

you see a list of the processes that are running on the machine sorted by the process ID.

1 SAR is a command-line program installed in OS X by default. It consists of two basic tools, the

System Activity Data Collector (SADC) and the System Activity Reporter (sar). It is designed to

automatically gather data for an extended time period, then analyze that data later. The data

collected by SAR are reports on cumulative statistics counters.

For more information about Activity Monitor and OS X Server, see Help Center. To get information

about command-line tools, open the Terminal application and look at the manual (man page).

Terminal is located in the /Applications/Utilities folder. To view the man page, type man followed by

the command—for example, man top.
