Chassis
A chassis houses the servers that are part of a computing fabric. It provides compute, memory, storage, and bandwidth resources.
Synopsis
| Synopsis | |
|---|---|
| Provides: | Chassis resources (physical space, cooling, etc.) |
| Consumes: | N/A |
| Discovered through: | Fabric Manager targets |
When Turbonomic discovers that blade servers housed in a particular chassis have been designated as vCenter hosts, the supply chain stitches the blade servers and chassis to the corresponding vCenter data center to establish their relationship. When you set the scope to that data center and view the Health chart, you will see the blade servers in the list of hosts. In addition, when the data center is included in a merge policy (a policy that merges data centers for the purpose of VM placement), the VMs in the blade servers apply the policy, allowing them to move between data centers as necessary.
Monitored resources
Turbonomic monitors the following resources:
-
Power
Power is the measurement of electricity consumed by a given entity, expressed in watts.
-
Cooling
Cooling is the percentage of the acceptable temperature range that is utilized by the entity. As the temperature nears the high or low running temperature limits, this percentage increases.
Actions
None
Turbonomic does not recommend actions for a chassis.
