About metered resources
Table: Log configurations for UNIX hosts lists the resources that are metered and the difference in the log configurations of previous versions of Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager and Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager 5.0 and onwards. For example, to understand the percentage of CPU utilization of a system, the metering is done every 5 minutes for 24 hours in Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager 5.0. Whereas the metering in the previous versions of Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager was 5 minutes for one week.
Hosts metering on Windows platform is available in Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager version 6.0 and onwards. Table: Log configurations for Windows hosts lists the metered resources and the log configurations on Windows platform.
The data that is collected during metering is used to generate the performance charts of the resource. In Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager version 6.1 and onwards, this data is also used to evaluate the threshold settings defined on the resources.
Control Host Add-on version 6.1and onwards is required to enable performance metering for the VMware ESX server and Virtual Machine. Storage Insight Add-on version 6.1 and onwards is required to enable performance metering for storage array port, adapter, and enclosure. To view the performance graphs for volume and disk, Storage Foundation HA products must be installed on the host.
