C.O.L. Systems Inc. 10 Watergate Drive Amawalk, NY. 10501 February 23, 1995 Contact: Frank V. Castellucci (914) 245-0442 (914) 245-0452 (FAX) Announcement: C.O.L Releases OS/2 Performance Monitor Technology C.O.L. Systems Inc. announces the April 1st, 1995 availability of a new OS/2 performance monitoring system: Osrm2(tm) Lite Performance Monitoring System Version 3.0 including the Multi-User Performance Interface (MUPI) technology. "With Osrm2(tm) Lite we have raised the bar on performance monitoring standards for OS/2." says Frank V. Castellucci, president of C.O.L. Systems Inc. "With a lower price, a friendly and informative presentation, expanded data collection to now include OS/2 2.x, OS/2 Warp, OS/2 SMP, IBM Lan Server, and HPFS386 from one software package, the ability to support any number of data collection programs with our Multi-User Performance Interface (MUPI) technology, and enhanced OS/2 REXX extension for reporting we are providing the most robust and cost effective OS/2 performance monitoring software in the industry." Osrm2(tm) Lite is a single machine version of C.O.L. Systems Inc. performance management software line, which includes the Osrm2 Performance and Capacity Management System for local area networks, and was originally developed and enhanced since 1989. The Osrm2(tm) Lite Version 3.0 product comes bundled the Osrm2 Lite Monitor for general system and application resource usage displays, data logging, and exception alerts, three additional trace and collect utilities for detailed cache, thread, file, memory and paging analysis, and a OS/2 REXX extension to create post processing reports from collected data files. Each component of the Osrm2(tm) Lite system work through the newly developed Multi-User Performance Interface (MUPI) technology which communicates directly with the OS/2 kernel to get accurate measurements of resource usage. "Osrm2 Lite is the only system which supports multiple concurrent monitoring capability from different programs and is in direct response to user requests." Castellucci continues, "Previous systems would only allow one program to run at a time, a limitation still found in other kernel level OS/2 monitors." Osrm2(tm) Lite Performance Monitoring System Version 3.0, which is certified OS/2 and OS/2 LAN Ready, will list at $89.00 US and be made available through popular OS/2 resellers and Pete Norloffs OS/2 BBS. Upgrade incentives from the C.O.L. Systems Inc. Pegasus Resource Monitor will be made available through place of purchase. Detailed data sheets available directly from C.O.L. Systems Inc.
