AsItHappens is a real-time network statistics collector and grapher written in Java and published under GPL. It uses SNMP and ICMP to collect data from devices over a network and displays graphs of network response, bandwidth, processor and memory usage, Cisco NBAR and Netflow. In addition, AsItHappens can graphically display flow information from a tcpdump file.

Thierry Uso has ported AsItHappens 0.55 on OpenVMS. Porting means testing all the functions, writing a startup procedure and creating a PCSI kit.

AsItHappens for OpenVMS needs Java 1.6.0 or later (Java 1.5.0 prior to version 0.55) and must be installed on an ODS5 volume. AsItHappens has been tested on Alpha and Itanium.
