Monitoring with custom reports

You can build custom reports to save various charts that contain statistics about the catalog service domains, data grids, and container servers in your environment. You can save the custom reports and load them to view again later.

Before you begin

Before you can view statistics with the web console, you must complete the following tasks:
  1. Start the web console server. See Starting and logging on to the web console for more information.
  2. Connect your catalog servers to the web console server. See Connecting the web console to catalog servers for more information.
  3. Run active data grids and applications within the servers that are managed by your catalog service domain.

Procedure

  • Create a custom report.
    1. Click Monitor > Custom Reports.
      A list of the eXtreme Scale domains that you have defined are listed in a tree format. You can expand each of these domains to display the available statistics that you can add to the custom report.
    2. Add charts with the statistics you want to track.
      Available statistics are indicated by the chart icon (graph icon). Click one of the statistics that you want to track. Choose Add to new chart or Add to existing chart. Depending on your selection, the selected statistic either displays in a new chart tab or in the selected existing chart. You can only add a metric to an existing chart if the metrics already on the chart and the new metric use the same units.
  • Save a custom report.
    Saving the custom report saves the statistics in all of the tabs you have created. To save the report, click Save.
  • Load a custom report.
    Click Load and choose the saved custom report that you want to view.
