Troubleshooting a Slowdown

There seems to be an issue with the local

Storage Zone for ShareFile.

The storage zone is slow because it is hosted on a VMware server that has

a bottleneck

One of the datastores of the ESX server is seeing a

major issue.

I/O write latency is very high.

The critical issue is in one of the VMs.

Disk Activity on the CRM-Oracle 11G VM is showing a critical issue.

This disk is 99.5% busy!

An Oracle database instance on this VM is causing so many

IOPS that it is slowing the Vmware server and in turn

the ShareFile service.

The root-cause

It is important to have the right metricsLook for domain expertise in BYOD, collect the right metrics.Otherwise, it will be a case of “Garbage in, Garbage out”!

Use Case – Bottleneck Analysis

Analyze which tier is the

bottleneck

Case of Disk I/O Bottleneck

Clicking the Magnifying glass reveals the Root Cause which turned out to be a rogue process consuming Disk I/O

Get More Out of Your Investment• Track user sessions on each server

A few of the servers are handling most of

the sessions

Efficient load distribution can ensure that this infrastructure supports a much higher number of users.

Are Users Complying to the Policies of your BYOD Service?

Tracking Policy Violations : Alerting on Device Conditions

Devices by Platform

Tracking BYOD Policies

Auto-Baseline Key Metrics

• Auto-compute time-of-day baselines• Alert administrators when metrics violate baselines

Preemptive detection & alerting lets administrators see and fix problems before users notice

A Preemptive Alerting Example A Real-World Scenario:

The domain server goes down, pulling down the BYOD service. Why?

eG’s alarm history provides a clue …

The domain server has failed and rebooted.

5 hours earlier, eG has alerted about an issue!

A Preemptive Alerting Example

eG’s In-N-Out monitoring of the VM on which

AD is running provides further insightsThe Client/Server Run-Time Subsystem (csrss) is a critical Windows process responsible for console

handling and GUI shutdown.

The csrss process in the VM is leaking OS

handles!
