4 Analyzing the server performance
Overview
This chapter provides you with the various tools available in the performance management for analysis of
the monitored servers and also discusses the different options available for analyzing the information
logged/available for the servers.
The different tools available are:
•
Online Analysis tool
•
Offline Analysis tool
Online Analysis
The performance management Online Analysis tool provides an intuitive interface to detail the performance
status and inventory of the monitored components. The monitored components include processor memory,
local and external storage, network storage, network connections, host bus, virtual machine guest, and
virtual machine host components for each server. The tools provided for Online and Offline Analysis are
similar in overall functionality. The major difference in performing Offline Analysis is that the data comes
from a database rather than a real-time data stream.
When you select a monitored server icon from the PF column of the Insight Control/Insight Dynamics console
or when you select Diagnose
→Performance Management→Online Analysis from the console toolbar,
the performance management Online Analysis screen appears in a new browser window, as shown in the
following screen. The Online Analysis page displays the performance status view for the server as shown in
