IntelliMagic Vision for SAN
End-to-End SAN Performance, Capacity, and Configuration Monitoring
Monitor and manage the performance and capacity of your IBM systems in a single view with the rest of your multi-vendor SAN system.
Reduce your costs and mean time to resolution with platform-specific, AI-driven visibility into your IBM system to elevate performance and capacity monitoring.
Management of virtualized storage performance and capacity requires full visibility from the front-end controller to the back-end storage.
IntelliMagic Vision provides built-in, automated insights that leverage a domain-specific AIOPs approach that allows you to proactively prevent performance and capacity issues on your IBM Storwize storage systems (Storwize V3500, V3700, V5000, V7000) before they can impact production, all in a single pane of glass.
Quickly find the answers to questions such as:
Health Insights charts show the health of each key performance indicator for your nodes, ports, storage pools, tiers, external back-end arrays, and the hosts and clusters consuming storage from your IBM systems.
The AI-based analytics engine rates and correlates metrics to the specific hardware capabilities and minimizes false positives.
Balance analysis identifies imbalances on your I/O Groups, nodes, ports, storage pools, and drives that are critical for managing the efficient scalability of your IBM storage systems.
This allows you to manage and modify imbalances before they limit performance and allows you to easily assign new workloads in a manner that ensures the sustainability of your performance.
Knowing when key performance metrics change can allow you to proactively address anomalous behavior before it creates or contributes to an issue and shorten mean time to resolution when an issue occurs.
IntelliMagic Vision uses advanced statistical analysis to not only highlight changes in performance metrics, but also shows you the magnitude of those changes.
IntelliMagic Vision’s Health Insights charts allow you to evaluate performance from the host through the SAN fabric to the presented LUN.
Topology charts show you the connectivity from the host to its block storage with drilldowns that show performance at each point in the path.
Capacity forecasting leverages domain agnostic AIOps to understand future storage capacity requirements and prevent capacity constraints.
IntelliMagic Vision tracks key capacity metrics over time and calculates the consumption rate to provide a comprehensive view of capacity growth and free space expiration at a storage system and storage pool level.
The number of days until running out of space can be leveraged to purchase more storage for the impacted storage system.
