40.6 Working with Zone Platform Metrics

Virtualization Server platform metrics enable you to monitor the performance and resource usage of the virtualization server in your data center. You can use this information to balance resources or plan ahead to add resources to improve future performance.

The distribution of CPU and memory consumers is useful in managing the most heavily loaded zones, enabling you to be proactive in identifying potential issues. The last dashlet on the Summary page shows the date and time stamp for the last configuration change and the last incident.

The following zone metrics are available in the dashlets across the top of the page:

The main body is made of 2 sections. The top one provides graphs showing the vCPU distribution per resource pool and zones, as well as the memory distribution per zones. The second section is the list of the guests. The Virtual Platform's Guests contains a list of the zones and zone details including the resources (vCPU, core, socket, share, memory) configured for the zone and those actually allocated to running zones. You can display the page as a list or a table. The default view is the List view, sorted by Incident count. The List view has sorting and filtering options that enable you to sort by incident and by allocated resources. Alternatively, you can view the Virtual Platform's Guests page as a sortable table. You can sort by the zone type, zone state, and by zone resource pool. You can also sort by the Fatal, Critical, or Warning incident columns.

40.6.1 Viewing Zone Platform Metrics

Some metrics appear in the dashlets, for details on specific zone metrics, view the Summary page.

  1. From the Targets list, select All Targets.
  2. From Servers, Storage, and Network, select Virtualization Platform.
  3. Click the target name to open the Summary page for the Solaris Virtualization platform.
  4. The dashlets display the metric information. The Summary page shows details for each zone. Details include the zone name, type of zone (global, non-global, kernel), the status, the number of vCPUs, memory, and the incidents.
  5. The main body of the page contains details about the virtualization platform's guests, or zones.
