❏ Performance metrics
Use the embedded performance component to collect performance
counter and instance data. The platform-generic metrics can be used
to answer most questions about a system’s global configuration, CPU,
disk, swap, and memory usage. The typical metrics vary by platform
but are available on most platforms and are generally useful for drill
down and diagnosis on a particular system.
❏ Management Information Base (MIB) variables
An alternative mechanism for polling MIB variables is also provided
by VPO, referred to as MIB data collection. In contrast to the
threshold monitors, you can configure this mechanism to store the
collected values in a more efficient format. The stored MIB data can
be used to analyze trends in monitored variables by graphing the
values over time. This type of monitor also supports threshold values,
but does not have the sophisticated filtering capabilities of the VPO
threshold monitors.
