4.1.1 Overview

The Systemwalker Service Quality Coordinator dashboard templates provide views that allow you to monitor the following information:

SQC_Dashboard
This view is used to monitor resource information, power consumption, and machine temperatures. The following templates are provided:
- Resource_Dashboard
- Green_Dashboard
Virtualization_Dashboard
This view is used to monitor the resources of virtual host and guest servers. The following template is provided:
- VMware

SQC_Dashboard - Resource_Dashboard

This view is used to monitor resource information (CPU, memory, and disk).

Graph title	Displayed data	Display period	Remarks
CPU usage rate	Record name: SUM_PROC Field name: totproc	2 hours	Displayed for each system name
Free memory	Record name: SUM_MEM Field name: freemem	2 hours	Displayed for each system name
Read/Write service time	Record name: SUM_DISK Field name: dsksrvctim	2 hours	Displayed for each system name

Note

When you display in a line graph information that has been collected at different intervals from different agents (for example information from a server with an Agent installed and information from a server being monitored by an agent for Agentless monitoring), the line for the agent with the larger collection interval will be corrupted.

If you need to display information in a graph from agents that have different collection intervals, use the plot calibration function found in the Analytics Studio under Chart >> <Name> >> Options, and set the plotting interval so that it matches the largest collection interval.

For example, for SUM_PROC_totproc prepared as a template:

Agent for Agent-based Monitoring: 1-minute intervals

Agent for Agentless Monitoring: 5-minute intervals

Displayed period: 2 hours

For the above conditions, set the "Max number of plots for category " in "Control Plot Volume " to 24.

SQC_Dashboard - Green_Dashboard

This view is used to monitor power consumption and machine temperatures.

Graph title	Displayed data	Display period	Remarks
Electric power at moment (Total)	Record name: ECO_POWER Field name: power	Latest value	Sum total of the whole system Maximum: 5000 (default) (*)
Electric power at moment	Record name: ECO_POWER Field name: power	2 hours	Displayed for each resource ID
Temperature at moment	Record name: ECO_TEMPERATURE Field name: temperature	2 hours	Displayed for each resource ID

*: Changes to match the operating environment.

Virtualization_Dashboard - VMware

Sample of the view used to monitor the server resources of VMware host and guest servers.
