7.1. Introduction

The OPC DataHub System Monitor provides a way to access any system performance data item, such as CPU usage, memory usage, process ID, disk space, network traffic, etc. in the OPC DataHub.

For example, by monitoring process ID you could determine whether a particular process is running or not. Any information accessed here becomes part of the DataHub's data set, and can thus be tunneled across the network, used in scripts or as email triggers, viewed in a spreadsheet, or stored in a database.
