eG Monitoring
 

Measures reported by HCPSystemTest

Using this test, administrators can track storage space usage by the Hitachi Content Platform system, and be proactively alerted to any potential space crunch. In the event of a contention for storage space, you can use the metrics reported by this test to figure out the probable cause of the space drain - is it because of over-sized protected volumes and/or ingested volumes? is it owing to too many indexed objects? is it because a high data protection level has been set, requiring multiple copies of objects to be stored? is it because unavailable / irreparable objects are unnecessarily hogging space?

Outputs of the test: One set of results for the target Hitachi Content Platform that is to be monitored.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
totalCapacity Indicates the total capacity of Hitachi Content Platform system. TB

 
pVolumeCapacity Indicates the size of the protected volume. TB

 
pVolumeCapacityPCT Indicates the percentage of total storage capacity used by protected volumes. Percent

A low value is desired for these measures.
iVolumeCapacity Indicates the size of the ingested volumes. TB

A low value is desired for these measures.
iVolumeCapacityPCT Indicates the percentage of total storage capacity used by ingested volumes. Percent

A low value is desired for these measures.
objectCount Indicates the total objects in Hitachi Content Platform system. Number

 
iObjectCount Indicates the count of indexed objects in Hitachi Content Platform system. Number

 
isReplicationEnabled Indicates whether replication is enabled or not for the Hitachi Content Platform system.
