Arctera InfoScale™ Operations Manager 9.0 Frequently Asked Questions
Performance statistics
Arctera InfoScale Operations Manager tracks the following data that is displayed in the performance charts:
Hosts - available memory, average CPU load, CPU utilization, Swap in Rate, and Used Swap
Disks and volumes - read and write statistics
File system - the size and the used space on the file system
Initiator - the bytes read and written as well as read and write errors and queues lengths
Path - read and write latency and average bytes read and written
Virtualization server and virtual machine - available memory, CPU utilization, swap in rate, average CPU load, and used swap
Path of a virtualization server - average read and write latency, and bytes read and written
The performance statistics data is not stored in the Management Server database, but on the managed host. If Management Server is not running, Arctera InfoScale Operations Manager continues to collect historic performance statistics on each managed host only if the managed host is configured with Management Server.
Data logs for host, volume, disk, file system, path, and initiator are stored on the managed host. The data logs for virtualization server, virtual machine, path, and initiator are stored on the Control Host.
The default directory on UNIX or Linux managed host is
/var/opt/VRTSsfmh/stats
For Windows 2019
%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Symantec\VRTSsfmh\stats
For Windows 2022
%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Symantec\VRTSsfmh\stats
In case of storage array and VMware metering, Arctera InfoScale Operations Manager also stores the data in the shared folder.
