“…Also several tools were implemented on top of OMIS/OCM: PATOP for performance analysis, DETOP for debugging, and others. The development of the OCM-G and G-PM is a direct continuation of the previous work, started in 2001 with a first proposal of an application monitoring system for the Grid [3].…”

This paper presents an application monitoring infrastructure developed within the CrossGrid project. The software is aimed at enabling performance measurements for the application developer and in this way facilitating the development of applications in the Grid environment. The application monitoring infrastructure is composed of a distributed monitoring system, the OCM-G, and a performance analysis tool called G-PM. The OCM-G is an on-line, grid-enabled, monitoring system, while G-PM is an advanced graphical tool which allows to evaluate and present the results of performance monitoring, to support optimization of the application execution. G-PM supports build-in standard metrics and user-defined metrics expressed in the Performance Measurement Specification Language (PMSL). Communication between the G-PM and the OCM-G is performed according to a well-defined protocol, OMIS (On-line Monitoring Interface Specification). In this paper, the architecture and features of the OCM-G and G-PM are described as well as an example of use of the monitoring infrastructure to visualize the status and communication in the application, to evaluate the performance, including discovering the reason of the performance flaw.

“…Originally, the environment was designed only for PVM applications on clusters, however, the core concepts of application monitoring and tool support for applications were developed at that time when no similar approaches existed. The environment has been continuously developed [4] and in 2001 the first proposal for OMIS-based Grid monitoring was presented [3].…”

This paper presents main ideas and design details of a performance analysis tool-G-PM and a grid application monitoring system-OCM-G for applications running on the Grid which are under development within the EU CrossGrid project. Besides of the operation of G-PM's components, we overview its internal interfaces. G-PM enables not only standard measurements, but also comprises application-specific metrics and high-level measurements. The OCM-G is aimed to provide services via which tools supporting application development are enabled to gather information, manipulate, and detect events that occur when applications are running. The functionality of the OCM-G is available via a standardized interface, On-line Monitoring Interface Specification (OMIS).
