Reporting Areas or Domain Categories

About Reporting Areas or Domain Categories

Adapters extract and transform data from various data sources to report on several performance metrics. These metrics can be categorized into the following logical reporting areas or domain categories:
server performance
metrics that are based on interval data collection in a server environment.
resource utilization
metrics showing the event-based activity for the resources associated with transactions, jobs, tasks, sessions, processes, and other units of work.
workload profiling and characterization
metrics based on interval or event-based data according to the methodology for measuring workload.
network performance and utilization
metrics including counts of network transmissions, device and interface utilization, device and interface status changes, and connection state changes.
metrics for the SMF adapter
key and ranked metrics including measurements for systems, Lpar, goal mode service, workload, workload period, device, paging and swapping, CPU processor, paging file, batch job, TSO, and OMVS sessions performance, CICS transaction activity, and DB2 thread accounting.

Server Performance Domain Category

Measuring server performance includes performance areas such as CPU, memory, I/O, paging and swapping, cache, and network time.
The following table shows the key metrics that are relevant to server performance and the adapter domain categories that support each metric. An X indicates that the key metric listed in the row is supported by the adapter domain category in the corresponding column.
Note: For the SAR, BMC Perf Mgr UNIX, and HP Perf Agent and HP Reporter UNIX domain categories, an X indicates that the corresponding metric is present for at least one of the supported environments (HP, Sun, AIX, Linux) that can run on the platform. The X does not necessarily mean that the metric is available in all environments for the domain category. For example, CpuWaitIoBusyPct is found in AIX and Sun environments on UNIX, but it is not available in HP and Linux environments.
In the following table, the abbreviated column headings stand for the following adapters:
  • DT: Demand Technology Performance Sentry
  • RMF: IBM Resource Management Facility
  • SAR: System Activity Reporter
  • BMCU: BMC Performance Manager for Servers - UNIX
  • BMCW: BMC Performance Manager for Servers - Windows
  • HPU: HP Perf Agent Server and HP Reporter Server for UNIX systems.
  • HPW: HP Perf Agent Server and HP Reporter Server for Windows systems.
  • SC: Microsoft System Center Operations Manager
  • VMC: VMware vCenter Server
