You may want to add or delete metrics to or from the metric filter for the Data Center, depending on which performance metrics you want to monitor.
To configure the metric filter
The Collection Criteria dialog appears.
The metric is saved.
The Details section contains the following fields:
Defines the operating system for the metric being monitored.
Defines the type of metric being monitored.
Example:
Type: CA Disk Group
Sub Type: Writes per second (average)
Defines which aspect of the metric is being monitored.
Example:
Type: CA Disk Group
Sub Type: Reads per second (average)
Defines the instance of the managed object in the MIB hierarchy.
Example:
Type: vmvcaim.StatClusterEffectiveCPU
Sub Type: 1.3.6.1.4.1.546.16.52.2.7.2.1.14
Instance: %3 [%2]
%<n> where <n> is the numeric value listed under Instance matched to any value corresponding to the nTh column in the respective AIM MIB table. For example, vmvcAimStatClusterTable for all row entries (instances for the same managed object). This is useful when collecting metrics for the managed object instantaneously for all instances when they are available with no user input.
Defines the upper limit of utilization for the selected metric group.
Default: 80%
Defines the lower limit of utilization for the selected metric group.
Default: 20%
Defines how many consecutive times the threshold breach occurs before a threshold event is generated. Configure this option to avoid flooding events for threshold evaluation. You can define an action to log threshold breach events and set up rules for threshold monitoring.
Specifies whether the collection method is complementary, complementary delta, exact, or exact delta. The complementary method includes metrics that are not already included in a subset of that set. The exact method collects the exact metric specified.
Specifies whether the monitored metric is a system, application, or SNMP metric.
Specifies whether the collection engine collects the metrics specified by the filter by default. Unless a metrics filter is set as default, the collection engine will not automatically collect the metrics specified.
Specifies that you want the selected metrics to be included in the overall utilization calculation and evaluated by CA Server Automation.
Specifies that the metric filter is effective for use when evaluating what metrics are available for collection.
The selected entries are deleted.
