Since Cisco UCS is an integrated, scalable, multichassis platform, a diverse population of applications and servers resides in the environment, and the performance of these applications must be monitored both individually and as a unit. Applications Manager offers Cisco UCS monitoring service, where you can monitor and track various KPIs of the applications and the system.
Applications Manager's Cisco UCS monitoring capability collects real-time Cisco UCS's data to present it in a dashboard that is easy to understand. Monitor Cisco UCS performance metrics like response times, resource utilization, faults, processors, and other hardware with Cisco UCS monitoring tools to recognize decline in performance, and identify the reason why your system has deviated from the ideal performance.
You can monitor the following with the Cisco UCS monitor from Applications Manager:

You can also configure thresholds and anomaly profiles for important parameters, and associate alerts and automated actions—like E-mail or SMS action, which will be performed when the values deviate from standard values—to them. Setting up anomaly profiles can help you identify gradual performance degradation, so you can take action before end users are affected. You can set baseline limits as a percentage of a fixed baseline value or you can opt for "Dynamic baselining" where the data will be compared with the previous week's values.
Applications Manager's Cisco UCS monitoring tool comes with a powerful reporting feature that provides both numerical and graphical representation of key attributes. You'll be able to make informed decisions regarding your Cisco UCS infrastructure using trend analysis, forecast and inventory reports.
With the help of trend analysis reports, you gain insight into the historical performance of various key parameters which you can analyze and compare. Forecast reports use machine learning techniques to help you anticipate the growth and utilization of Cisco servers, so that you can plan your resources accordingly.
In addition to the Cisco UCS Management Software, Applications Manager also supports:
It allows us to track crucial metrics such as response times, resource utilization, error rates, and transaction performance. The real-time monitoring alerts promptly notify us of any issues or anomalies, enabling us to take immediate action.
