Looking for tools to monitor sql and applications

reg

I am looking for the right tools to do application monitoring.
I'm hoping to find one single tool that can do the entire job but if
it does not exist then a few monitoring apps would do as well.

I need the ability to do the standard things like testing for ping,
checking for windows services running and restarting them after some
threshold is met, and wmi.

Some of the more tricky things I need it to do are:
* Parse log files looking for specific error codes, and the ability to
set an alert only if it sees that error X times over some period of
time.

* Run custom slq queries like row counts and max values returned from
a query and if that condition is met X times over some period of
time.

* Run an external app that does its own custom testing and act on its
results, which could be to parse the result file from the app.

Keep in mind cost is not the isssue right now - so this can be
freeware to some type of enterprise solution that our company can use.
Does anyone know of any tools that you can point me towards?

Thanks...

Have you looked at Microsoft Operations Manager? I can't tell that it
does all you want, but MOM is the tool Microsoft presents when you
need to monitor many servers. (It is not really clear from your post
that is what you want, though.)

Hello all, we are running a delphi application with DB2 V8.01 which is causing deadlocks when rows are being inserted into a table. Attaching the Event Monitor Log (DEADLOCKS WITH DETAILS) here. From the log it looks like the problem happens when 2 threads insert 1 record each in the same table and then try to aquire a NS (Next Key Share) lock on the record inserterd by the other thread. Thanks Rohit

Hellos again, I seem to be having a weird issue. Whenever DB2 Health monitor seems to run, all connections to the database seem to just lock up. For example: (and this seems consistent) In list applications, DB2Hmon will show as "compiling statement", If I issue a "connect to database"it will hang there until DB2HMON is completed and no longer showing as a active application. Below is a lock snapshot that occurs when this is happening....

..NET is a memory hog - plain and simple. This, in my opinion, makes it less than ideal for embedded applications where memory is constrained. I am forced to use .NET for reasons that I will not go into, so I need to be able to code my applications in such a way as to use memory efficiently. So, is there a tool out there that will allow me monitor my application's memory utilization on the embedded device? I am using the .NET compact...
