Overview: Viewing vCMP statistics
After creating vCMP® guests to process application traffic, you can display vCMP statistics to better manage performance.
Viewing virtual disk statistics
Before viewing virtual disk statistics, you must be logged in to the vCMP
host.
Using the BIG-IP® Configuration utility, you can view
information about the virtual disks that are currently allocated to vCMP® guests:
- The virtual disk names
- The size in gigabytes of each virtual disk
- The name of the guest to which each virtual disk is currently allocated
- On the Main tab, click .
- Locate the Virtual Disk List area of the screen.
The following table shows sample statistics for three separate virtual disks.
Virtual Disk Name | Operating System | Status | Disk use |
---|---|---|---|
GuestA.img | TMOS | Ready | 64.4G |
GuestB.img | Unknown | Unknown | 64.4G |
GuestC.img | TMOS | Ready | 64.4G |
Viewing vCMP guest information
Before viewing guest information, you must be logged in to the vCMP host.
Using the BIG-IP® Configuration utility, you can list the
names of, and information about, the vCMP® guests that are
currently on the system.
- Log out of the guest.
- On an external system, open a browser window and access the vCMP host, using the vCMP host's management IP address.
- Using your user credentials, log in to the BIG-IP Configuration utility.
- On the Main tab, click .
The system displays a list of vCMP guest names, as well as this information:
- The state configured for each guest
- The number of cores allocated to each guest
- The management IP address and netmask for each guest
Viewing current vCMP guest statistics
Before viewing vCMP® statistics, you must be logged in to the vCMP host.
You can review current vCMP statistics for all guests on the BIG-IP® system. The information shown includes the guest name, bytes, packets,
multicast packets, dropped packets, and average CPU use.
Viewing disk usage statistics
Before viewing disk usage statistics, you must be logged in to the vCMP host.
Using the BIG-IP® Configuration utility, you can view
information about the vCMP® disk usage:
- Disk name
- The number of virtual disks
- The total vCMP application volume size, in gigabytes
- The available vCMP application volume size, in gigabytes
- On the Main tab, click .
- Locate the Disk Usage area of the screen.
Viewing historical statistics about vCMP
To view
vCMP® statistics, you must be logged in to the Virtual Clustered Multiprocessing™ (vCMP) host.
You can review detailed historical vCMP statistics in graphical form on the BIG-IP
system. The statistics provide an overview of vCMP performance, and screens focus on
network throughput, CPU usage, and disk usage.
The statistics show an overview of vCMP performance: network throughput, CPU usage,
and disk usage. The data can be displayed per guest or interface depending on the
selected statistics page. Review the vCMP statistics to understand how the guests are
using resources on the system. As a result, you become more familiar with the system and
its resource utilization, and you can troubleshoot the system as needed.
