HostCPUs topology object

There is a single HostCPUs instance attached to a Host that provides host level summary metrics for the processors on a host. The HostCPUs instance is identified by the reference to the associated Host object and has its name set with the constant string CPUs.

Table 37. HostCPUs topology object
Metric Name	Metric Description	Metric Collected for These Platforms
percentIOWaitTime	The average percentage of time that processors on the host were idle while there was at least one I/O in progress.	AIX® HP-UX Linux® Solaris®
percentIdleTime	The average percentage of time that processors on the host are idle.	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows®
percentSystemTime	The average percentage of time that processors on the host spend executing system code in user mode.	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows
percentUserTime	The average percentage of time that processors on the host spend executing user code.	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows
totalHz	The total speed (measured in Hertz) of all physical processors installed on a host, or the total number of cycles allocated to a virtual machine.	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows
usedHz	The total amount of clock cycles (measured in Hertz) being used by processors on the host.	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows
utilization	The average percentage of time that processors on the host are utilized (that is, not idle). NOTE: IntelliProfile thresholds are defined for this metric. For details, review the thresholds list in the Manage Thresholds dashboard.	AIX Linux¹ Windows

Collected for Linux platforms only by the UnixAgentPlus.

HostCPUs — Physical CPU Utilization

The CPU usage of AIX® LPAR (Logical Partition) is not easily or consistently measurable via a percentage. Depending on the LPAR configuration, the numbers can vary widely (often exceeding 100%, as in prior releases).

The current formula for calculating the Physical CPU Utilization provides a more meaningful value for this metric, which is reflective of physical CPU allocation (regardless of virtualization setup) and does not exceed 100%.

Customers who prefer using the old formula from the legacy agent (delivered with the Cartridge for Operating Systems) can revert to the old calculation by using the following formulas:

•

For capped lpar:

CPU Utilization (oldMetric) = Physical CPU Utilization (newMetric)/entitlement

•

For uncapped lpar:

•

if virtualCPUs >= physicalCPUs

oldMetric = (newMetric*physicalCPUs)/entitlement

•

if virtualCPUs < physicalCPUs

oldMetric = (newMetric*virtualCPUs)/entitlement

HostNetwork topology object

There is a single HostNetwork instance attached to a host that provides host level summary metrics for the network interfaces on the host. The HostNetwork instance is identified by the reference to the associated Host object and has its name set with the constant string Network.

Table 38. HostNetwork topology object
Metric Name	Metric Description	Metric Collected for These Platforms
packetsReceived	The total number of packets received on all interfaces (count/second). NOTE: IntelliProfile thresholds are defined for this metric. For details, review the thresholds list in the Manage Thresholds dashboard.	AIX® HP-UX Linux® Solaris® Windows®
packetsSent	The total number of packets sent on all interfaces (count/second). NOTE: IntelliProfile thresholds are defined for this metric. For details, review the thresholds list in the Manage Thresholds dashboard.	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows
receiveRate	The combined receive rate on all network interfaces (bit/second). NOTE: IntelliProfile thresholds are defined for this metric. For details, review the thresholds list in the Manage Thresholds dashboard.	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows
sendRate	The combined send rate on all network interfaces (bit/second). NOTE: IntelliProfile thresholds are defined for this metric. For details, review the thresholds list in the Manage Thresholds dashboard.	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows
tcpConnectionsActive	The number of open and active TCP connections.	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows
tcpConnectionsEstablished	The number of TCP connections last observed to be in the ESTABLISHED or CLOSE-WAIT state.	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows
tcpConnectionsFailures	The number of TCP connections that have failed since the service was started. TCP considers a connection as failed when it goes directly from sending (SYN-SENT) or receiving (SYN-RCVD) to closed (CLOSED) state, or from receiving (SYN-RCVD) to listening (LISTEN).	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows
tcpConnectionsPassive	The number of open and passive TCP connections.	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows
tcpConnectionsReset	The number of connections that have been reset since the service was started (regardless of when the System Monitor was started). TCP considers a connection as reset when it goes directly from ESTABLISHED or CLOSE-WAIT to CLOSED state. In Linux, this number represents the count of receiving resets.	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows
transferRate	The total rate on all transfers on all network interfaces (bit/second).	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows
utilization	The average utilization of network interfaces on the host. NOTE: IntelliProfile thresholds are defined for this metric. For details, review the thresholds list in the Manage Thresholds dashboard.	AIX HP-UX Linux¹ Solaris Windows

This metric is unavailable when the network card’s maximum bandwidth is not reported by the kernel.

HostProcess topology object

The HostProcess type captures aggregate metrics for all processes of a given type on the host. Processes are aggregated according to executables.

Table 39. HostProcess topology object

dataRead	The rate (byte/second) at which instances of the process read data in I/O operations to file, network, etc.	AIX HP-UX Linux® Solaris Windows
dataWritten	The rate (byte/second) at which instances of the process write data in I/O operations to file, network, etc.	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows
name	The name of the HostProcess group.	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows
operationsOther	The rate (count/second) of I/O operations (other than read/write operations) performed by instances of this process.	AIX HP-UX Solaris Windows
operationsRead	The rate (count/second) of read I/O operations performed by instances of the process.	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows
operationsWritten	The rate (count/second) of write I/O operations performed by instances of the process.	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows

percentAvailability	The percentage of processes found divided by the number of processes expected. (percent)	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows
percentMemory	The percentage of real memory that has been consumed by instances of the process.	AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris Windows
