Question: What is Foxhound?
Answer:
Foxhound 4 is a third-party database monitor for SAP® SQL Anywhere®.
A database monitor is a computer program that measures the activity of a database management system
and displays those measurements in a meaningful way so you can see everything's OK...
or quickly learn about problems and threats to performance and availability.
Here's how Foxhound works:
- Every 10 seconds Foxhound retrieves performance statistics from your database.
- Foxhound then
- stores these statistics in its own SQL Anywhere database,
- performs summarization and other value-added calculations, and
- displays the results via HTML using SQL Anywhere's built-in HTTP server.
