Mary:

Have you consider Oracle performance monitoring tools from PLATINUM technology, inc? PLATINUM offers DBVision, which requires X windows and OSF/Motif; the server side agent runs on standard UNIX platforms (of which Sun Solaris is one). The tool allows DBAs to continuously monitor large, complex Oracle environments. It can monitor multiple Oracle databases simultaneously.

PLATINUM also offers SQL Spy, which runs under Windows 3.0 (or above). It can monitor not only Oracle databases, but also Sybase and Microsoft SQL Server databases.

For more information, contact PLATINUM technology, inc. at 1-800-442-6861 or 708/620-5000.

Good luck,
