MONITOR, VISUALIZE, AND MANAGE NETWORK AND STORAGE PERFORMANCE
	Monitor both Ethernet and Fibre Channel traffic Select the data granularity you need – from specific ports to entire servers Graph historical results over time scales ranging from minutes to months Export data for further analysis

Gain a consolidated view of I/O usage across all storage and networking resources with the Xsigo Performance Manager. For the first time, you can view real-time and historical performance data for both Ethernet and Fibre Channel traffic, across all I/O resources, on a single screen. Quickly find and fix bottlenecks and identify critical usage trends so you can optimize resource loading, increase efficiency and accelerate the user experience.

 

Why Monitor I/O Performance

I/O performance issues can create numerous IT challenges: Poor user experience, unpredictable application performance, low CPU utilization, lengthy backup jobs, slow virtual machine migration, and sub-optimal network and storage performance can all result from I/O congestion issues. Worse, the underlying I/O problems are often difficult to identify. The Xsigo Performance Manager lets you monitor for the first time all I/O traffic including both Fibre Channel and Ethernet, across all attached resources, giving you the data you need to configure a more responsive, more efficient operating environment.

 

Granular Performance Monitoring

This plug-in to the Xsigo XMS Management Interface provides an array of data collection and visualization tools. Gather information over time and quickly view data at the level of granularity you need, from specific virtual interfaces to entire servers. View statistics for:

• Virtual NICs
• Virtual HBAs
• Physical ports
• Specific servers
• I/O clouds
• I/O Directors

 

View Historical Information

To spot short and long term trends, the Xsigo Performance Manager lets you analyze data gathered over hours, days or months. Select data from specific time periods and overlay that information on top of new data to quickly identify changes. Employ a variety of views, including historical throughput and average throughput, to gain multiple perspectives on the information you need to optimize resource utilization.

 

Complements Xsigo Management Tools

Xsigo virtual I/O makes it easy to manage your bandwidth resources. With granular QoS controls, real time I/O management, and full I/O mobility, you can quickly optimize your environment. The Xsigo Performance Manager provides the data you need to capitalize on that flexibility. By viewing information within the Performance Manager you can quickly identify bottlenecks or predict future issues. You can then employ Xsigo's rich toolset to add I/O resources, modify bandwidth allocations and migrate workloads.

 

Performance Data Management

The Xsigo Performance Manager lets you collect up to a year's worth of data across all monitored assets for long-term and seasonal throughput analysis. Analyze data using the included set of charting tools to view information for specific resources across the time span you choose. Alternately, you can export data for further analysis using third-party tools.
