supplies extensive monitoring data, in order to improve the performance of the systems |
Current version: openSM2 V8.0
Round-the-clock performance monitoring forms the basis for effective and economic operation of IT systems.With the openSM2 product line, Fujitsu offers a consistent solution for the enterprise-wide performance management of server and storage systems, by which the server systems Microsoft® Windows, Linux®, Solaris™(SPARC®), VMware™ ESX Server™, Xen® and BS2000/OSD® and the storage systems Symmetrix, CLARiiON and FibreCAT are supported.

Performance data acquisition |
The performance data of Windows systems are collected via the WMI interface. Data about the utilization of the server and the operating system and also the Microsoft applications Internet Information Services, Exchange and SQL Server are collected.
The performance data of VMware ESX Server systems are collected via the VI 3 web service. Both data of the entire server and of the individual virtual machines are collected.
The performance data of storage systems are collected via StorMan. Access rates, data transfer rates and IO response times for the volumes are collected.
The data of Windows, VMware ESX Server and storage systems can be collected remotely from another system (e.g. a PC), without any installation on the monitored systems ("agentless" monitoring).
The performance data of Solaris systems are collected via different system interfaces (kstat, /proc, statvfs). The measured values for the measurement variables of all sar options are collected. Beyond that, process- and file system-specific measured values and network data can also be captured in addition.The performance data of Linux systems are collected with the sadc command. The measured values of the measurement variables of all sar options are collected.
The performance data of Xen systems are collected via the xenstat interface. Both data of the entire server and of the individual virtual machines are collected.
On BS2000/OSD, performance data acquisition is managed by the SM2 monitor, which can capture performance data for more than 500 measurement variables. The scope of performance data acquisition can be controlled, since more detailed performance data is required for the analysis of performance problems than for long-term observation and planning of system capacity.
The performance data is provided for online monitoring and, if desired, can also be saved to a monitoring file for later analyses.

Online monitoring with INSPECTOR |
| The simultaneous online monitoring of several systems enables the rapid recognizing of acute problem situations and their causes.The monitoring data of the current system status and the chronological development of the measured values are displayed by INSPECTOR in the form of reports in graphic or tabular form at the Windows PC. |
Offline analysis of monitoring files with ANALYZER |
| With the analysis of monitoring files bottleneck and trend analyses as well as long-term capacity plannings can be performed. With ANALYZER, you can generate expressive charts from your performance data with minimal effort. This makes the measured values easy to interpret, so performance bottlenecks can be quickly identified and future performance requirements forecast. |
User-specific monitoring (BS2000/OSD) |
| Task- and program-specific performance data (instruction counter and SVC statistics) can be collected in user-own statistics files for analysis of user tasks and programs. The analysis is performed by the product SM2-PA. |
Test version |
| Under download, a free test version is available for 30 days for the system platforms Solaris, Linux, Windows, VMware ESX server and Xen. |
