1.16 Linking to the Red Hat Virtualization Function (KVM)

Function overview

Physical server and virtual machine performance information from the Red Hat virtualization function (KVM) is collected and managed centrally.

The virtual machine performance information collected by this function is put together with the physical server performance information and evaluated comprehensively. Accordingly, the resources in the server can be optimized, and improved user efficiency can be achieved.

Information that can be collected

The methods used to collect the physical server and virtual machine performance information and the main function information for the Red Hat virtualization function (KVM) are shown below.

Physical Server

Virtual Machine

CPU/memory/disk performance information is collected from the host operating system (Linux).

CPU/memory performance information is collected from the host operating system (Linux).

Note

If the Red Hat virtualization function (KVM) is a monitoring target, then Linux performance information will also be collected from the host operating system.

Point

The Red Hat virtualization function (KVM) can also be managed using Agentless Monitoring (refer to "2.2 Virtual Resource Managementt" for details).


Collection interval

The collection interval is one minute.


Procedure

The linkage procedure is explained as follows:
