Monitoring for VNX

May I know can VNX M&R support email alerts? E.g. If the response time higher than 10ms for a LUN in VNX, the VNX M&R will send out an alert.

If this software cannot support this feature, is there other software support this function?

Many thanks.

FYI,

the new M&R 1.1 version was released on Monday July 22nd with new features

see  https://support.emc.com/products/28885_VNX-Monitoring-&-Reporting

Chargeback

Beginning with this release, a new Data Enrichment feature called

Chargeback is available. Chargeback calculates cost-of-service for

business units and applications in an organization and displays it

in the Chargeback reports. The VNX Monitoring and Reporting

Administrator assigns a cost-per-gigabyte value to LUNs by RAID

type, tier, and array model. Specific LUNs are then associated with

a business unit and application. Total cost-per-gigabyte for each

business unit and application is calculated based on this

configuration

Heat Map Reports

Heat map reports are now available in this release. A heat map is a

grid in which metrics that have similar values are grouped together

in order to create "hot" and "cold" areas. These values will be

colored according to predefined thresholds. Unlike other types of

reports, visual thresholds for Heat maps cannot be adjusted.

Scheduled Reports

Reports can now be scheduled to run at specific times and be

delivered as PDFs to selected recipients through email. Whenever a

report is scheduled to be generated, it queries the database for the

latest data.

Alerts

Alerts are now available and can be configured to trigger an email

or be captured in an SNMP trap based on when certain

performance thresholds are violated. For example, an Alert can be

configured to trigger whenever storage processor utilization

exceeds 75%. Alerts can also be configured to trigger only for

specific components, such as specific SPs on specific systems. The

Alert email recipients are configurable by alert.

There are six pre-defined alerts available with this release:

  • Data Mover Processor Utilization (%)
  • File System Percent Subscribed (%)
  • LUN Response Time (milliseconds)
  • Storage Pool Percent Subscribed (%)
  • Storage Processor Dirty Pages Utilization (%)
  • Storage Processor Utilization (%)
