A single word	`cat`	Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats".
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase.	`"cat food"` (quotation marks)	Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase.

OMi Management Pack for Infrastructure2.00

Extensive XEN Management Template

The Extensive XEN Management Template monitors the performance and health of host and guest systems in a XEN Virtualization Environment. It monitors Guest Performance as an advanced feature in addition to the basic functionalities - Guest availability and resources, Host resource utilization and discovers the virtual components like hypervisor host, guest, and resource pool. The Extensive XEN Management Template comprises of specific Aspects to monitor these features.

Note: You can deploy Extensive XEN Management Template only on the host.

Management Template - Aspects

The Extensive XEN Management Template consists of the following Aspects:

XEN Guest Health

The XEN Guest Health Aspect monitors the guest availability and resources in a virtualized XEN environment. This Aspect consists of the following policy templates:

CI Type	Policy Template	Indicator	Policy Description	Policy Type
Computer (Virtualization Layer Software)	Virt_LinuxHV_GuestCPUUtilMonitor	CPULoad	Monitors the CPU utilization of VMs within a host. The CPU utilization of each VM is checked against the threshold limits. In case of any violation, alerts are raised with the list of VMs on that host.	Measurement Threshold Template
	Virt_LinuxHV_StateMonitor	NodeStatus	Monitors and evaluates the KVM and Xen logical system which has any one of the states such as `nostate, running, run/idle, paused, shutdown, crashed,` or `shut off`. An alert is raised only if the VM is in the same transient state for more than 30 minutes.

XEN Guest Performance

The XEN Guest Performance Aspect monitors the guest performance in a virtualized XEN environment. This Aspect consists of the following policy templates:

CI Type	Policy Template	Indicator	Policy Description	Policy Type
Computer (Virtualization Layer Software)	Virt_LinuxHV_DiskPhysByteRateBaseline-AT	InterfaceUtilization	Uses an instance baseline for monitoring the average number of bytes transferred per second from and to the physical disk for KVM or XEN.	Measurement Threshold Template
	Virt_LinuxHV_GuestCPUTotalUtilMonitor-AT	CPULoad	Uses the multi-instance baseline for monitoring the total CPU utilization of the guest machines for KVM or XEN.
	Virt_LinuxHV_NetByteRateBaseline-AT	InterfaceUtilization	Uses an instance baseline for monitoring the net byte rate for KVM or XEN.

XEN Host Health

The XEN Host Health Aspect monitors the host resource utilization in a virtualized XEN environment. This Aspect consists of the following policy templates:

CI Type	Policy Template	Indicator	Policy Description	Policy Type
Computer	Virt_LinuxHV_HostCPUUtilMonitor	CPULoad	Monitors the host CPU utilization for KVM and Xen systems in a virtualized environment. The CPU bottleneck symptom is indicated by high CPU utilization rate in the host system.	Measurement Threshold Template
	Virt_LinuxHV_HostMemoryUtilMonitor	MemoryUsageLevel	Monitors the physical memory utilization of hosts in Linux virtualization environment. The memory bottleneck symptom is indicated by high memory utilization rate along with low available memory.

Virtual Infrastructure Discovery

The Virtual Infrastructure Discovery Aspect discovers the virtual components such as hypervisor host, guest, and resource pool in a virtualization environment. This Aspect consists of the following policy template:

CI Type	Policy Template	Indicator	Policy Description	Policy Type
Computer	Virt_Discovery	NA	Discovers the virtual infrastructure components like hypervisor host, guest, and resource pool in a virtualization environment.	Service Auto-Discovery Template
