To access the IBM XIV System monitoring data, simply provide your storage administration credentials to login to your system over a Wi-Fi or 3G link. Swipe between the various app screens to monitor overall system performance and capacity utilization, as well as Volumes or Hosts live performance metrics. Expand the data for a Volume or a Host by tapping on its line, to see detailed performance graph for this individual element.
Key features of the IBM XIV Mobile Dashboard app include:
· Secure access to the IBM XIV Storage system using an SSL connection over Wi-Fi or 3G link
· Monitoring an XIV system overall health status (full redundancy, rebuild progress, maintenance, etc.)
· Monitoring system capacity utilization (Soft, Hard, Used)
· Multi-system dashboard - Monitor multiple XIV systems
· Multi-System aggregation - IOPS/Bandwidth/Capacity and multi-system views
· Monitoring live events
· Overall system performance metrics, including IOPs, bandwidth and latency
· Granular data showing performance metrics for individual volumes or hosts
· Live graphs showing any performance metric over recent time, for either the entire system or for an individual volume or host
· Live performance table for either volumes or hosts, sortable by any metric for easy detection of top performers
