OBERON SOFTWARE INTRODUCES DISKSTAT PLUS!
February 27, 1996, Mankato, MN - Oberon Software, Inc. announced today that it
has begun distributing DiskStat PLUS!, a new and updated edition of its
venerable DiskStat program. DiskStat PLUS! is a low cost, disk space
monitoring utility for OS/2 Warp. In addition to providing more textual and
graphical display options, the new version has been completely reworked for
better Workplace Shell integration, better behavior in LAN based scenarios,
and better support for multiple execution profiles.
It is expected that the utility program will appeal to all OS/2 users. Home
users can use it to view the status of their system swapper file while network
administrators may use it to monitor multiple disk drives on multiple servers.
DiskStat PLUS! provides four different views of the current state of any disk
drive on an OS/2 system or LAN: current statistics as a textual report, as pie
chart with legend, or simple pie chart, plus an historical report. The program
also specifically reports on the system swapper file if the file is present on
the monitored disk.
DiskStat has been reviewed and/or recommended by such industry publications as
"OS/2 Warp Unleashed", "OS/2 Warp Administrator's Survival Guide", and
Computer Shopper.
Demonstration copies will be available on the company's BBS (507-388-1154) and
WorldWide Web page (http://prairie.lakes.com/~oberon). Oberon Software will
provide copies of the demonstration program on diskette by request. Licensing
for DiskStat PLUS! is $25 per copy or per workstation and is available
directly through Oberon Software or from Indelible Blue, Inc. Indelible Blue,
