Common Converged Infrastructure Customer Questions
Compute StorageNetworkVirtualization Apps
How do I view UCS fabric utilization?
Can I reconfigure to use more of the capacity we
have?
My application is slow. Is it UCS? Network?
Storage?
Can we simplify the view of all the
converged infrastructure pieces?
Do I need to buy more capacity, or can
I just adjust how we’re using it?

“Like five blind men describing an elephant”
What’s wrong with this?“I have five excellent monitoring tools that provide a wealth of information. They all report on different consoles. They are perfectly useless.” – Ops Manager, Telco Service Provider“We have fifteen different management vendors, each vendor and technology silo specific. Each silo brings their own tool set to the table and correlating all the data is impossible.” – IT Ops Manager, Financial Services Firm

Infrastructure Monitoring
Cisco Confidential 6© 2013-2014 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
• Appliance for performance and capacity management for Cisco converged infrastructure
What
• Enables active performance monitoring of the entire converged infrastructure stack
Why
• Cisco converged infrastructures: VCE Vblock, NetApp FlexPod, EMC VSPEX, and custom
Who
Cisco UCS Performance Manager

• Determine if IOM server ports, Ethernet Uplinks, FC Uplinks are congested now or historically
• Identify congestion sources and configuration fixes, such as moving a service profile between chassis
• Key point: This is invisible to most network management tools
Provides Visibility into UCS Fabric
Cisco Confidential 8© 2013-2014 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
• Determine if workloads and applications are affected by UCS configuration or capacity constraints
• Compare current and historical performance across converged infrastructure components to find constraints
• Key point: This typically requires multiple, independent tools
Extend beyond the UCS Fabric
Cisco Confidential 9© 2013-2014 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
Better understanding of UCS component level performance Service Profiles, Chassis, Fabric Extender, Adapters, VIC, ports, uplinks
Maintain SLAs with Optimal resource allocation Aid optimal deployment and use of Integrated Infrastructure Prevent under-provisioning and avoid performance degradation
Single pane of glass for end to end monitoring Monitor device health and performance from the same console Agentless architecture Physical infrastructure – Compute, Network, Storage Virtual infrastructure – Hypervisors
Value proposition
Cisco Confidential 10© 2013-2014 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
• Works across compute, storage, network, and defined workloads
• Supports VCE Vblock, NetApp FlexPod, EMC VSPEX, and Cisco custom designs
Unified Infrastructure View
• Rapid deployment• No agents• Web user interface
Immediate Value
Pre-configured: Focused Analytics
• Optimized for UCS Fabric• Finds constrained resources and
identifies contributing components and configuration issues

UCS Performance Manager Differentiators
Cisco Confidential 11© 2013-2014 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
Determine if components/application resources are congested
Understand fabric utilization for physical and logical components
Ports, aggregation pools, service profiles, organizations, IO modules, FEXs, chassis, blade and rack servers
Standard usage analysis identifies overload and out-of-balance conditions
Multiple notification methods
Cisco Confidential 12© 2013-2014 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
Application view: physical/logical/virtual resources
• Define application as a set of operating systems
• Dynamic view shows which UCS components are supporting those servers
• Event rainbow shows components affected by fault issues or resource constraints
