The Gateway Metrics
Report
You can view the
Gateway Metrics Report
to monitor performance and
throughput on your gateways, clients, and file systems from the
Reports > Gateway Metrics
menu option on the GUI of a StorNext
MDC set up to monitor your G300 system. Because you can see at a
glance which gateways, clients, or file systems are currently under- or
over-utilized, the
Gateway Metrics Report
is a useful tool for
understanding LAN network and client performance characteristics. For
more information, see the latest version of the
StorNext User’s Guide
, or
view the video that describes the features and functions of the
Gateway
Metrics Report
