Abstract

Local and remote processes can be controlled from a data processing system performance monitor. Multiple processes can be controlled concurrently with a single action selected. Processes to be controlled can be ranked when presented to a user, to assist in determining problematic processes that need attention. Process data is captured dynamically at local and remote processes using a daemon to minimize system overhead in monitoring and controlling processes.
