Hobbit is a network services monitor. Even though a z/VM client is
available, it is very high level stuff and does not give the level of
detail that ESALPS or zMON does (and certainly couldn't hope to).
Loren appears to be looking for a lower cost performance monitor, zMON
may be the right fit here.

I have been mandated by management to seek a lower cost performance
monitor than our currently employed ESAMON from Velocity Software.
The reason for this is that we are in the throws of down sizing what
we are running on our current z800 with zVM 4.3. There is also talk
of eliminating zVM altogether, but that is a discussion for a later
date.
If anyone can suggest something of zero cost or at least lower than
ESAMON, I would appreciate it.
TIA,
