  2. Agenda • What does RM do? • Overview of RM code organisation • RM functional organisation • Configuration • Monitoring & Alerting • Reporting • Summary DB

  3. What does it do? - Overview • System Monitoring and Analysis • Monitors servers • Monitors Applications • Issues alerts – E-mail, SMS, SNMP, scripts • Server analysis reports – user, process, metrics • Scheduled server re-boots • Billing (next phase) • Extended reports (next phase) – e.g. summary reports

  4. What does it do? - Configuration • Configuration • Which servers are monitored? • Which Applications are monitored? • Which metrics are tracked? • What are the alert thresholds and actions? • Housekeeping

  5. Configuration – Add/Remove Metrics

  6. Configuration – Server Metric Properties

  7. Configuration - Alerts

  8. Monitoring • Monitoring • Real time charts • Light board (status indicators) • Watcher • Alerts

  9. Monitoring – Light Board & Watcher

  10. Reports • Reports • Problem investigation & prediction • Sizing, trends, farm stats • Billing

  11. Reports - System Snapshot

  12. Reports – System Snapshot

  13. Code Overview Automatically created and maintained by RM Server DB Logging Alerts RM Sum DB RM Monitor RM Billing RM Server RM Analyzer RM Report RM Application Plugins Citrix Management Console Summary file XPe Server Summary DB (SQL Server, Oracle) RM Plugin IMA Event Messaging System PS

  14. Configuration XPe Server XPe Server Configuration Data (Persistent store) Citrix Management Console IMA IMA

  15. Monitoring & Alerting Configuration Data IMA Citrix Management Console Farm wide metrics Master Monitor (farm metric server) IMA Alert notifier Server metrics IMA 48 hrs only IMA RM Server DB (Access) Data publisher SMS SNMP Alert notifier Alerter!

  18. Key functional pieces (1) • IMA • Always required • Scalable • Data gatherers • Collect data • Publish for immediate consumption, medium term storage, and prepare for long term storage • Monitoring • Real time and medium term data consumers • Server specific and Farm wide • Alert situation detection • CMC based User Interface

  19. Key functional pieces (2) • Data controller • Collects data for long term storage • Undertakes housekeeping activities • Needs to be scalable • Data loss protection on each XPe server • Alert Actioner • Sends e-mail, SMS, SNMP • Reports • Multiple user interfaces – CMC, Crystal Reports • Report format definition • Long term data consumer • Data exporter to external solutions?

  20. Key functional pieces (3) • Configuration • Of all of the previous items • CMC or its equivalent • External interfaces
