At certain times of the day and on certain days of the week, business activities occur in greater or in reduced volumes. The resulting infrastructure usage patterns are usually regular and predictable. During the times of increased business activity, optimal network and server performance is critically important. But by default, CA Performance Center dashboards do not differentiate reported data according to its impact on business activities.
To help CA Infrastructure Management operators focus on the data with the greatest impact on the business, the administrator can associate business-hours definitions with site groups. Site groups let you organize managed networks and devices geographically. Each site group can have one associated set of business hours and one time zone. When you deploy site groups with associated business hours, you can help IT operators and engineers manage the multiple time zones in your enterprise and prioritize their troubleshooting activities.
Deploy business hours along with the following settings to create a strategic plan:
Each business-hours definition includes both times of day and days of the week. Select the hours and days that reflect periods of increased commercial activity. We recommend creating these definitions for every distinct location in your enterprise.
