1.18 Linking to Solaris Containers

Function overview

Performance information from Solaris 11 Solaris containers is collected for each global zone and non-global zone and is managed centrally.

The non-global zone performance information collected by this function is put together with the global zone Solaris performance information and evaluated comprehensively. Accordingly, the resources in the server can be optimized, and improved user efficiency can be achieved.

Point

  • If a Solaris 10 Solaris container is being monitored, installing an Agent in each zone allows the resource usage status to be seen for each zone.


Information that can be collected

The methods used to collect the performance information for each global zone and non-global zone and the main function information for a Solaris container are shown below.

Physical Server

Virtual Machine

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

CPU/memory performance information is collected from the global zone.

Note

If the Solaris container is a monitoring target, then Solaris performance information will also be collected from the host operating system.

Point

A Solaris container can also be managed using Agentless Monitoring (refer to "2.2 Virtual Resource Management" for details).


Collection interval

The collection interval is one minutes.


Procedure

The linkage procedure is explained as follows:
