Integrating Cloud services metrics with the performance monitoring tool
This topic describes the procedure for integrating Cloud services server nodes with the performance monitoring tool.
Performance monitoring collector (pmcollector) and sensor (pmsensors) services are
installed under /opt/IBM/zimon.
Note: You must install the sensors on all the
cloud service nodes, but you need to install the collectors on any one of the GPFS nodes. For more information about the installation
instructions, see Manually installing the performance monitoring tool.
Two
types of configurations are possible for the performance monitoring tool integration:
For more information, see Configuring the performance monitoring tool.- GPFS-based configuration (configuration by using GPFS commands). This type is recommended.
- File-based configuration (manual configuration of the sensor files as described here).
