control centre host agent

Hi

what are the key metrics the host agent can pull back in to control centre? Can it drill down in to a Database and retrive how much space is being used within a RAW disk?

any information would help

Hi natsidan,

I'm not fully sure that I understand your question but in terms of metrics that the Host Agent can report on within Performance Manager, then here is the list (these can all be found in the Help section of PM):

Host CPU metrics

The following table lists and defines  Host CPU Metrics.

% idle CPU

Percentage of time that the host CPU had been  idle.

% io wait CPU

Percentage of time that the host CPU spent  waiting for an I/O operation to complete.

% processor CPU

(% sys CPU) + (% user CPU) + (% io wait CPU)

Percentage of time the host CPU is  busy.

% sys CPU

Percentage of time that the host CPU spent in  system mode.

% user CPU

Percentage of time that the host CPU spent in  user mode.

Host device metrics

The following table lists and  describes the Host device metrics.

average  queue

Average length of the queue for the  device.

ios per sec

Number of I/O operations performed each second by  the host device.

Kbytes read per sec

Number of kilobytes read each second by the host  device.

Kbytes transferred per  sec

(Kbytes read per sec) + (Kbytes written per  sec)

Total number of kilobytes read and written each  second by all of the host devices.

Kbytes written per sec

Number of kilobytes written each second by the  host device.

reads per sec

Number of read I/O operations performed each  second by the host devices.

response time (ms)

(service time (ms) + wait time (ms))

Total of service and wait time in milliseconds  required by the host device.

service time  (ms)

Amount of time in milliseconds spent servicing a  request.

wait time  (ms)

Average amount of time in milliseconds spent  waiting before an I/O operation began.

writes per sec

Number of write I/O operations performed each  second by the host device.

Host logical volume metrics

The following table lists and defines  the host logical volume metrics.

The host logical volume statistics are only available if the  Veritas Volume Manager is installed.

avg read time (ms)

Average time in milliseconds that it took the  host logical volume to perform a read.

avg write time (ms)

Average time in milliseconds that it took the  host logical volume to perform a write.

io per sec

(reads per sec) + (writes per sec)

Kbytes read per sec

Number of kilobytes read by the host logical  volumes each second.

Kbytes transferred per sec

(Kbytes read per sec) + (Kbytes written per  sec)

Number of kilobytes transferred each second to  and from the host logical volume.

Kbytes written per sec

Number of kilobytes written each second to the  host logical volume.

reads per sec

Number of read I/O operations performed each  second by the host logical volume.

writes per sec

Number of write I/O operations performed each  second by the host logical volumes.


Host HP device metrics

The following table lists and defines  the HP device metrics.

average queue

Average length of the queue for the  device.

ios per sec

Number of I/O operations performed each  second.

Kbytes transferred per sec

Number of kilobytes transferred each second to  and from the host logical volume.

response time (ms)

(service time (ms) + wait time  (ms))

service time (ms)

Amount of time in milliseconds spent servicing a  request.

wait time (ms)

Average amount of time in milliseconds spent  waiting before an I/O operation began.

Host MVS device metrics

The following table lists and describes the MVS device metrics.

CONN (ms)

Volume connect time for each request in  milliseconds.

DISC (ms)

Volume disconnect time for each request in  milliseconds

ios per sec

Number of I/O operations performed each  second.

IOSQ (ms)

IOS queue time for each request in  milliseconds.

PEND (ms)

Pending time for each request in  milliseconds.

reads per sec

Number of I/O read operations performed each  second.

response time (ms)

Response time for each request in  milliseconds.

writes per sec

Number of I/O write operations performed each  second.
