Basically there are two different approaches to monitor applications' availability and responsetime, one is real end user transactions monitoring, and the other is proactive monitoring.
To verify that transaction and statement responsetime data is sent to Optim Performance Manager server, search for the Monitor payload string in the trace file as shown in Figure 10.
During the process, ping can monitor the time it takes to send and receive the response, which can be an effective method of measuring the response time of the echo process.
