4. Affected Components Description
==================================

“The next kernel in the JDE.INI file is the Server Administration Workbench 
(SAW) kernel. This kernel is responsible for collecting and reporting
information about the kernels in EnterpriseOne. The SAW kernel will connect to 
each of the kernels to determine information including:

        - Number of users connected to the kernel (if applicable)
        - Number of requests processes by the kernel
        - Average time to complete the request
        - Outstanding requests
        - Users connected to the kernel process (if applicable)

This information is displayed in the SAW or Server Manager applications. This 
is critical to monitoring the health of the EnterpriseOne kernels and
providing a view into how the system is executing .” JD Edwards EnterpriseOne.
