You can use the xscmd utility and web console tools to monitor your data grid environment.

Monitoring data grids in the user interface

In the user interface, you can view the overall performance of the data grids in your environment. The monitoring section of the user interface includes an overview of all data grids on the appliance, individual data grid overview, and detailed reports on individual data grids.

For more information about monitoring data grids in the user interface, see Monitoring data grids in the user interface.
