HP-UX Java™ - How To Develop Java Applications for HP-UX

Source code control
The source control system that is chosen should be compatible with the development
tools that will be used on the project, as well as with the development platform itself
(Windows, Linux, Unix).
Small project teams working on Windows platforms will find Visual SourceSafe (VSS)
to be a very convenient product for managing their source. VSS is available for purchase
from Microsoft. However other companies provide clients that give users web access
via secure connections. Alternatively, CVS (Concurrent Versions System) is an Open
Source product. CVS runs on Windows, Linux, and Unix systems (including HP-UX)
and also provides cross-system capabilities.
Larger projects will need the extended features of Rational ClearCase. This product is
available from IBM and there are versions that run on Windows or Unix. It is possible
to run the ClearCase View Server and VOB Server on Unix with a client interface
running on Windows and interfacing with the desktop development tools.
The table shown below lists the tools that are available with each of these source control
systems. This table was accurate at the time of writing this paper, however support by
the individual systems changes over time and should be verified with the individual
tool and control system vendors prior to purchase.

Monitoring an enterprise application
HP's OpenView product product is designed to monitor an application without adding
any measurable overhead or otherwise perturbing the operation. Therefore, it can be
used to monitor an environment on an ongoing basis as part of the normal systems
operation.
HP OpenView is an award-winning system monitoring and control product that is
able to measure and report on all aspects of a systems operation. OpenView uses specific
interfaces to networking software, controllers, and other components of the application
infrastructure to monitor the flow of transactions as well as the traffic load to identify
bottlenecks. The information is displayed on the OpenView management console,
which provides options to filter the information and to respond to the findings by
controlling key infrastructure parameters. For more information on the OpenView
family of products, visit the web page at http://www.openview.hp.com/.
