Figure 6-1 Baseline Threshold Example
The threshold is set for Monday at 2 PM. The baseline threshold is set at 130% of the average for that
statistic. The average is calculated from the statistics value that occurred at 2PM on Monday, for every
prior Monday (for the weekly option) or the statistics value that occurred at 2PM on each day, for every
prior day (for the daily option).
Quick Data Collector and Flow Setup Wizards
The Performance Manager Flow and Performance Manager Setup wizards greatly simplify
configuration. All you need to do is select the categories of statistics to capture and the wizards provide
a list of flows and links to monitor. You can remove entries if desired, or just accept the provided list and
start data collection. Statistics for host and storage links are not associated with a specific port on a
switch, so you do not lose long term statistics if a connection is moved to a different port.
