Data Sources

OMi Performance Dashboard supports the following data sources:

  • Operations Agent
  • SiteScope
  • Operations Connector
  • OpsBridge Store
  • Application Performance Management (APM)
  • Cloud Optimizer

The data sources continuously collect data about the monitored elements and store it in the data store for future use. The Performance Dashboard enables you to visualize this historical data stored in the persistent data stores.

OMi Performance Dashboard validates the data source set for the Monitored By property in RTSM and queries data only from the listed data sources.

If the Monitored By property for a CI is OM and/or BSMC:<CONNECTED_SERVER_NAME>, Performance Dashboard checks the PE endpoint status by querying the following REST URL:

http://<OMi_Gateway_server/PE/rest/1.0/admin/endpoint

The status "Success" implies that the CI is monitored by the Performance Engine. Accordingly, OpsBridge Store, i.e. the data store provided by Performance Engine is listed as the data source in the Performance Dashboard.

For the CIs that are monitored by Operations Agent, the data source listing is also based on the Operations Agent as Default Data Source setting in Infrastructure Settings page.

The following table explains how the data sources are listed in Performance Dashboard based on the Monitored By and Operations Agent as Default Data Source attributes.

ClosedHow to include Operations Agent as a data source for all monitored CIs

You can include Operations Agent a data source for all monitored CIs if you are using Operations Agent to monitor the CIs in your environment.

  1. Go to Administration > Setup and Maintenance > Infrastructure Settings.
  2. Select Performance Dashboard from the Applications drop-down list.

  3. Under Performance Dashboard - Settings, set the value of Default Data Source to true.

    Note If the value is true, Operations Agent data is graphed on the Performance Dashboard even if the “Monitored by” property for the node CI is not “OM”. If the value is false, data from the Operations Agent will be graphed only if the “Monitored By” property of the node CI is "OM".
