Clearpath & vCenter Ops - What We Needed Needed Better Visibility Accurate System Health Infrastructure Capacity and Right-Size Recommendations Needed Simple Administration Reduced Complexity for Installation and Maintenance Simplified, Unified Dashboard

Clearpath & vCenter Ops - Visibility We Lacked vCenter Views Did not entirely show us a full picture. VMware showed a cluster with plenty of capacity available. Memory and CPU, and first glance, don’t appear to be overly taxed. Qualitatively, we were aware of bottlenecks in the environment but could not readily identify a bottleneck without mining numerous systems for data. Most importantly, no alarms had been triggered whatsoever.

Clearpath & vCenter Ops - What We Know Now vCenter Operations – Cluster View We can suddenly see true CPU contention on the cluster as well as a calculated “normal” baseline.

Clearpath & vCenter Ops - What We Know Now vCenter Operations – Host View As we drill down into the data, we get a clearer picture of what is happening, and how isolated (or not) the problem is.

Clearpath & vCenter Ops - What We Learned Unified Dashboard into Relevant Metrics A Roll-up of metrics into a single-score system. A system which understood “normal” and more intelligently alerted us.
