On the upper right side is a block for time selection, which defines the time interval for displaying collected information and where the user can save specific time intervals.
The rest of the right part layout is a tab-list that is composed of the system information tab, Collector jobs, KPI charts, the KPI mixer, the messages tab, the details tab and the events tab. All these parts and tabs are described in the next sections of this manual.

In the system tree, a list of systems and their servers are displayed.
Node in this tree represents a system with a system ID and lists below this node (system) represent its servers with a server name.
For each system, there is additional information in three columns. The "Type" column informs about system type. The event column notifies event occurrence by displaying appropriate icon (meaning of icons is explained in later sections) and the "Last update" column informs when a system was monitored the last time.

The systems could be divided into system groups (folders) wherein one system can be placed in multiple groups.

  • - The system/server is not monitored due to an existing restriction in monitoring which is setup for specific time range, system, server and profile.

Groups in System Pool

It is now possible to organize your systems into groups and sub-groups, based on your preferences.

Right clicking on a group enables you to select or de-select all systems associated with the particular group or select only those systems on which some alerts occur.

In the KPI tree, the list of KPIs is divided into logical groups and there are sub-groups in each group. The user may make a specific KPI available in one or more groups and this association can be done in the KPI group maintenance. The maintenance is described in a separate section in this document called "KPI definitions maintenance". 

The main group is called 'All KPI'. This group contains all base groups and all KPIs, which are not associated to any Groups.

  1. Folder context menu - provides functionality to select/deselect all KPIs assigned to this folder and also for its sub-folders. It is useful mainly in the KPI Mix tab, where you can select/unselect KPI nodes.

  2. KPI context menu - provides default set of functions which can be executed over each KPI. The functionality 'Detail table(s)' is available only when any detail table exist for selected KPI. When not, this functionality is not visible. All functions are explained in next chapter.

...

After the system or server selection, the correlation functionality is executed. This functionality calculates the correlation coeficients for all relevant KPIs which have the same period of collection (e.g. 5 min) and have at least two collected values in the checking time period. Correlation coeficients have the values from the interval < -1;1 >. The closer is the coeficient to the value = abs(1) then more correlating KPI is. By default, only first twenty most correlating KPIs  which have the coeficient greater then 0.7, are displayed. The list of all found correlating KPIs are displayed in the KPI Mix tab (when no correlating KPI is found then only selected KPI is displayed in KPI mixer). Also when this functionality is called from another tab, it will automatically redirects the user to the KPI Mix tab.

Set threshold

Set threshold helps the user to create a new alert definition for KPI. When this functionality is selected, pop-up window is displayed in the same screen with preddefined values. The user just have to set a new threshold value (when preddefined values don't need to be changed) and a new alert definition is created in customizing with relevant KPI assignment. All generated alerts in this way have the following naming: X<KPI_NAME(21)><(NUMBER(10)> (e.g. XCPU_LOAD5_PMAX0000000046).
