Dear Thwack Community, I am looking for a solution that can help me for the capacity management of the switches. My Requirement - I have 100+ Locations, each location has certain number of switches, I would like to know the total Physical Port count, User Port count, Free Port count with an option to see the average…
Hi guys, I'm looking for a way to get any volume that has had a size change (ie a volume that has been extended or shrunk) over the last 7 days to be shown in a table. The reason for this is that although the capacity forecast tells us how long it anticipates a volume will have before it reaches capacity, it doesn't factor…
Has anyone crafted a way to report on the Top 10 or Top 25 circuits (remote locations) with trending and capacity planning in view. I can print out Top XX reports for time periods but seeing trending over time doesn't seem to be available. I've considered number of alerts of a certain type per node, but can't seem to craft…
Hi, I am having issues using the "Top Capacity Problems" resource. I want to customise the view so that I can add this resource to different "groups" that have been created to enable us to manage the Capacity Forecast on a group level. However, when I try to use the filters within the Edit screen I get errors relating to…
Hi all, I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out how to use the VolumesForecastCapacity to alert only on nodes with a specific custom property. Any help figuring out the logic would be much appreciated. Currently I'm just trying to adjust the out-of-the-box alert (below): SELECT VolumesForecastCapacity.Uri,…
Hello All We currently use VMAN 8.2 for capacity planning. However, we have multiple datacenters with multiple clusters in each datacenter. I am curious to hear what the community has done to ease capacity planning at the cluster level. Does everyone run each individual cluster simulation and then roll up the results? Or…
Evolution is not just for science conversations; it is a critical aspect of effective IT management. As federal technology environments become more complex, the processes and practices used to monitor those environments must evolve to stay ahead of -- and mitigate -- potential risks and challenges. Network monitoring is…
I love the volume capacity forecasting feature, but it's not smart enough to be reliable, especially for alerting. Improving it shouldn't take much. Admins should be able to globally set the sample period that forecasting uses to predict growth. For example, in our case, we'd probably use just the last three months to…
I produce a monthly capacity planning report within which there are last months utilization stats graphs for key links. The problem here is that they can be very misleading because if you look at the average rcv & xmit figures which are averaged out over a month they would look totally different to say, using the bandwidth…
I need to know what performance would be for a cluster if we were to remove a couple of hosts from it. I also need to know how to project what performance would be in the future, like a year from now based on the rate of guests that have been added over to. Can anyone shed some light??
