Summary and drill down reports—The Performance Manager summary report provides a
high-level view of your network performance. These reports list the average and peak throughput
and provides hot-links to additional performance graphs and tables with additional statistics. Both
tabular and graphical reports are available for all interconnections monitored by Performance
Manager. Performance Manager also analyzes daily, weekly, monthly and yearly trends. You can
also view the results for specific time intervals using the interactive zooming functionality. These
reports are only available if you create a collection using Performance Manager and start the
collector.
See the "Historical Performance Monitoring" section on page
Zero maintenance database for statistics storage—No maintenance is required to maintain
Performance Manager's round-robin database, because its size does not grow over time. At
prescribed intervals the oldest samples are averaged (rolled-up) and saved. A full two days of raw
samples are saved for maximum resolution. Gradually the resolution is reduced as groups of the
oldest samples are rolled up together.
