Performance
Fileservers no longer serve just files over a single protocol. A modern fileserver will provide files over multiple protocols such as NFS, CIFS and HTTP while at the same time serving block-level storage and carrying out additional tasks such as hardware monitoring, remote replication, and clustering. These advances create a much more flexible storage environment but also create a much more complex fileserver, with many different interacting processes and protocols. Storage administrators are well aware of this complexity, and know that it can take days of ad-hoc scripting and work with spreadsheets to understand a responsiveness or performance problem, let alone fix it.
WysDM for Fileservers provides full reporting and analysis on fileserver performance. It monitors fileservers at multiple layers, from the physical disk to the per-protocol statistics, and provides clear and concise reports on all aspects of performance. Reports are available from the lowest levels of individual disk throughput through statistical breakdowns of operations and to simple red/amber/green reports that provide at-a-glance information about the overall performance of a fileserver. WysDM's Predictive Analysis Engine monitors all of the performance data continually to look for anomalies or inefficiencies, and alerts when performance thresholds are breached and makes suggestions on how to increase performance where appropriate.
