This report provides a detailed examination of System Management (SM) and Virtualization within IT environments, focusing on performance monitoring, resource utilization, and historical data analysis. It aims to empower IT administrators by offering customizable, on-demand reports that can help anticipate resource issues, analyze performance trends, and support strategic improvement initiatives. Key features include drill-down capabilities, health assessments of groups and systems, forecasting of resource utilization, and exception tracking, all designed to enhance operational efficiency and service quality.

SHR 9.30 Report Screenshots Systems and Virtualization
What is System Management? • Anticipate resource problems in advance • Historical information about the performance and availability of key resources. • Drill-down from high level to detailed reports to analyze the root cause of problems in the long-term. present and forecasted capacity and usage data grade of service and exceptions in your IT environment
System Management in SHR • Leverages topology repository to show measurement data for all elements that are part of a business or IT service in one coherent perspective and with a long term time scale. This provides the user with the ability to determine areas for strategic improvement in the IT environment. • Customizable / On Demand reports without a steep learning curve.
SM & Virtualization Content Pack Overview • SM Reports are grouped in Executive Summary & Performance folders • Virtualized Environment Management folder contains Executive Summary, Performance & VMware folders
SM Top and Bottom 5 Systems • An Infrastructure administrator would like to identify and analyze the best and worst performing systems over a time period. • Also, he would like to • drill down and analyze the worst performing nodes by location/group amongst those supporting a specific business service/application.
SM Heat Chart • As an IT administrator I would like to view the systems or group of systems' performance over a period of time highlighting the breaches against a predefined set of thresholds so that I can analyze the cause of breaches along with the result of corrective action that was taken. • I should be able to apply the threshold on different types of aggregation like average, percentile etc.
SM System Usage Detail • As an IT administrator I would want to view the trend of an individual systems' resource (CPU, Memory, N/W and disk) utilization over a period of time. • This will help me to understand the result of corrective actions I've taken based on the threshold breaches indicated by real-time monitoring tools.
SM System Grade of Service by Group • As an IT administrator I want to view the consolidated grade of service for a group and distributed across different nodes in a group for a given period of time. • This will help me gauge the health of a group of systems during a given period of time.
