Historical Performance data from Virtual Connect

[chuckk281]

Abdul had a statistics question on Virtual Connect:

*****************

Do we have any option to see the historical performance data of Virtual connect. I am able to  see the statistics-throughput value but customer wanted to see the data for 1 week, 1 month Etc.

************

Input from Santosh:

****************

Please refer to ‘Configuring Throughput Statistics’ section (page 94) in “HP Virtual Connect for c-Class BladeSystem

Version 3.70 User Guide” : http://bizsupport1.austin.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c03478464/c03478464.pdf

With appropriate configuration, customer can see historical performance data up to 12.5 days.

More info from Vincent:

************

And if they want to go beyond that, they should look at a tool than can poll SNMP counters and make graphs out of them, such as MRTG/PRTG, Cacti, or in HP’s portfolio IMC or a member of HP Software’s network management suite.
