The resulting graph shows data points for the selected time period, with time and date stamps on the x
axis, and throughput in MB/s on the y axis. To the right of the graph, the selected devices and device
names will be shown. To run another throughput report, repeat these steps.
You can export the graph; see
Exporting Reporting Central reports
on page 147 for details.
System resource reporting
Resource monitoring allows you to monitor the hardware components on a StoreOnce System. System
resource reports contain data about CPU/Memory, disk utilization, network utilization, and Fibre Channel
receive and transmit rates (for units that support Fibre Channel). You can select which node in the cluster
you want to see a report for (or you can select all nodes at once).
There are four types of system resource reports:
•
on page 161
•
on page 162
•
on page 162
•
Fibre Channel utilization reports (for devices that support FC)
on page 163
CPU/Memory reports
The CPU/Memory reports allow you to view data about the performance of your system.
NOTE:
• If you consistently see high CPU usage and you are not running any backups, replication, or
housekeeping, you may want to check for hardware issues.
• If you consistently see high CPU usage while running backups, you may want to look at your backup
policies to ensure you are not straining system performance due to your backup settings.
Procedure
1.
In the
Navigator
, select
Reporting Central
, and then select
Reports
.
2.
Select the
CPU/Memory
tab. The
Group

(you do not need to
change this).
3.
In the
Appliance
menu, select the appliance you want to run a report for.
4.
You cannot run a report for multiple appliances, but you can run a report for up to 8 nodes in a cluster.
5.
In the
Node
menu, select the node you want to run the report for. Selecting
ALL
will show a report
with data for all nodes in the cluster.
6.
In the
Period
menu, select the time period you want to see CPU/Memory usage for.
7.
If you want to create a custom range:
a.
Select
Custom Range
in the Period menu.
b.
In the
Custom Range
box, click the calendar icon to the right of each field and select the Start
Date and the End Date.
