Installation of performance monitoring tool using the installation toolkit
By default, the performance monitoring tool gets installed when IBM Spectrum Scale™ is installed on the system using the ./spectrumscale install command.
For more information on the performance monitoring tool, see Performance monitoring tool overview.
- Installation
- Sets nodes to performance monitoring nodes (mmchnode --perfmon -N Node1,Node2,Node3)
- Installs pmsensor on any nodes that do not have the sensor.
- Installs pmcollector on 2 nodes. Preference is the GUI node first, followed by NSD nodes.
- Starts all sensors or collectors and activates all the default file system or node sensors.
- Resets GPFSDIskCap and GPFSFilesetQuota sensors to default values: 86400 and 3600 respectively and restricts them to the 1st collector node.
- Deployment
- Sets nodes to performance monitoring nodes (mmchnode --perfmon -N Node1,Node2,Node3)
- Installs pmsensor on any nodes that do not have the sensor.
- Installs pmcollector on 2 nodes. Preference is the GUI node first, followed by NSD nodes.
- Starts all sensors or collectors and activates all the default file system or node sensors.
- Resets GPFSDIskCap and GPFSFilesetQuota sensors to default values: 86400 and 3600 respectively and restricts them to the 1st collector node.
- Adds protocol sensors, corresponding to the activated protocols, to the active performance monitoring configuration and restricts them to protocol nodes. These sensors are NFSIO, SMBStats, SMBGlobalStats, CTDBStats, CTDBDBStats, SwiftAccount, SwiftContainer, SwiftObject, and SwiftProxy.
- Upgrade
- Upgrades pmsensor and pmcollector.
- Resets GPFSDIskCap and GPFSFilesetQuota sensors to default values: 86400 and 3600 respectively and restricts them to the 1st collector node.
If reconfiguration is disabled then the installation toolkit performs all installation tasks except for those related to performance monitoring and the management GUI, if GUI servers are specified.

To
resolve this issue, run the mmhealth node show --refresh command.For information on how to install the performance monitoring tool manually, see Manually installing the performance monitoring tool.
