Product Announcement – Update
Issue: Immediate 22 June 2026
Toronto-based Shield Advanced Solutions Ltd announces the latest release of their AAG Monitoring Solution now includes 15 new monitoring checks for the AIX platform.
This is a major step forward in delivering a unified monitoring solution across IBM Power Systems environments. AAG already provides proven monitoring for IBM i, Power HMC, and VIOS — and now extends that same visibility and operational control into AIX.
Deployment is fast and straightforward using the existing HMC wizard within Nagios XI. A simple three-step process is all that is needed to complete the configuration.
Director Chris Hird confirms, “Within minutes, monitoring data is flowing directly into Nagios XI, providing centralized visibility of AIX resources, status, and operational health alongside the rest of your Power infrastructure.”
The new checks help administrators quickly identify configuration issues, performance concerns, and operational problems before they impact the business. Default thresholds can easily be customized to match the requirements of each environment.
AAG continues to expand as a comprehensive monitoring platform for IBM Power Systems, helping organizations:
✔ Reduce manual monitoring effort
✔ Improve operational visibility
✔ Detect issues proactively
✔ Consolidate monitoring across multiple Power technologies
✔ Do more with fewer specialist resources
This is only the beginning for AIX support within AAG, with additional monitoring capabilities already planned based on customer demand and feedback. See AAG in action and discover how it can simplify monitoring across your IBM Power environment : Request a Demo
