Server Performance reports

[Mark Bayliss]

Hey Everyone,

We have two ML350 G3 servers and the network seems to be slow. I believe it is the servers as both have under 20% of disk space running RAID 5 with two partitions. Most users access there profiles & shared directories from these servers and they are DC's.

What is the best way for me to monitor these servers and I need get a few reports? Or can anyone point in the right direction for some manuals.

Appreciate your help

Regards,

Mark

I believe the best why it´s to use the System Home page for monitor your servers.

Install the HP agents on your server.
And you can monitor your server by browser.

Best way to monitor multiple HP servers is by using HP System Insight Manager(HP SIM)

There are many plug-ins available with HP SIM which can be installed according to your need.

Thanks for everyone reply.

I am aware of HP SIM and have it running on a few servers but can HP SIM monitor Average Disk Queue, % Processor Time, Current disk queue lenght etc etc. All statiscal data that help me monitor the server over a few weeks. I am aware Windows PerfMon can do it but its limited.

Am I missing something?

Cheers,
