Status Tool

The status tool allows you to select metrics to store in the data-collector buffer. In addition, you can use this tool to save the data currently held in the data-collector buffer to a file. Figure 97 shows a status tool.

The status tool displays:

• The length of time that the data collector has been running
• The size of the data-collector process area, called the collector virtual memory size

  When you select different metrics to store in the data-collector buffer, you see different values for the collector virtual memory size.
