PMP tools

HP ProLiant Essentials Performance Management Pack (PMP) is an integrated performance management
solution that detects and analyzes hardware bottlenecks on HP ProLiant servers, select HP Integrity servers,
and MSA500/MSA1000/MSA1500 shared storage systems. PMP is automatically installed with HP Systems
Insight Manager (HP SIM) and operates in integration with HP SIM. No software installation on the monitored
servers is required, other than the Insight Management Agents. PMP analyzes performance information to
determine if there is a building or existing performance bottleneck issue. You can interactively display this
information, log the information to a database for later analysis or reporting, and set up proactive notification
using the HP SIM notification mechanism.

PMP is best suited for the following:

Customers that want to know about and deal with server performance issues before they impact user
productivity.

PMP provides a concise overview of configuration anomalies that could impact performance, like faster
drives on slower controllers, NICs set to half-duplex, PCI cards concentrated on a single PCI bus, and
so forth.

PMP provides early alerts of building performance bottleneck situations.

PMP enables interactive and historical analysis of performance issues.

PMP provides clear-cut recommendations for solving performance issues.

Customers that, because of budget constraints, cannot automatically replace servers every three years.

PMP provides detailed information on the subsystem that causes performance constraints, enabling
pinpointed upgrades to economically extend the useful life of a server.

When economical upgrade possibilities are exhausted, PMP provides a summary report containing
both a performance profile (showing for each of the subsystems the percentage of time that performance
is out of spec) and a detailed server inventory for each subsystem.

Two PMP tools are available through HP SIM Optimize menu:

NOTE:

These options are available only on a Windows system.

Online Analysis

Enables you to watch and analyze the real-time performance of a monitored server.

It provides an intuitive interface to detail the performance status and inventory of monitored servers,
processors, memory, storage, network connections, and host bus nodes for each server.
