Reviewing VMware Smart Assurance performance metrics

To assess performance, the IP Manager provides the sm_tpmgr utility. Use this utility as follows to generate a complete list of performance metrics:

sm_tpmgr -s servername --show-dm-processes

The output of this command lists the duration of most tasks performed by the Domain Manager, including:

• Codebook tasks

• Discovery cycles, including postprocessing, reconfiguration, and saving the repository

• ICMP statistics

• SNMP statistics

  Note that when collecting performance statistics for IP Availability Manager, useful statistics are only available after IP Availability Manager is in a steady state for 2 to 3 hours.
