    Proactive Performance & Capacity Monitoring for your IBM Spectrum Virtualize Storage Systems

    Management of virtualized storage performance and capacity requires full visibility from the front-end controller to the back-end storage.

    IntelliMagic Vision provides built-in, automated insights that leverage a domain-specific AIOPs approach that allows you to proactively prevent performance and capacity issues on your IBM Storage systems before they can impact production, all in a single pane of glass.

    Quickly find the answers to questions such as:

    • How are my IBM systems performing based on the key performance metrics for each?
    • How well balanced are my front-end ports, IO Groups, managed disks and (MDISKs)?
    • How are my node CPUs and cache performing?
    • When will my storage pools run out of capacity at the current burn rate?
    • How are my Easy Tier configurations performing?

    Built-In Intelligence at Your Fingertips

    Built-in AI for Proactive Health Insights

    ibm spectrum virtualize health insights

    Health Insights charts show the health of each key performance indicator for your nodes, ports, storage pools, tiers, external back-end arrays, and the hosts and clusters consuming storage from your IBM systems.

    The AI-based analytics engine rates and correlates metrics to the specific hardware capabilities and minimizes false positives.

    Identify Imbalances in Your Storage Systems

    ibm svc port throughput

    Balance analysis identifies imbalances on your I/O Groups, nodes, ports, storage pools, and drives that are critical for managing the efficient scalability of your IBM storage systems.

    This allows you to manage and modify imbalances before they limit performance and allows you to easily assign new workloads in a manner that ensures the sustainability of your performance.

    Identify Anomalous Behavior with Automated Change Detection

    spectrum virtualize node usage change detection

    Knowing when key performance metrics change can allow you to proactively address anomalous behavior before it creates or contributes to an issue and shorten mean time to resolution when an issue occurs.

    IntelliMagic Vision uses advanced statistical analysis to not only highlight changes in performance metrics, but also shows you the magnitude of those changes.

    Evaluate Performance at Each Point in the Topology

    IntelliMagic Vision’s Health Insights charts allow you to evaluate performance from the host through the SAN fabric to the presented LUN.

    Topology charts show you the connectivity from the host to its block storage with drilldowns that show performance at each point in the path.

    Accurate Capacity Forecasting

    ibm svc capacity burn rate

    Capacity forecasting leverages domain agnostic AIOps to understand future storage capacity requirements and prevent capacity constraints.

    IntelliMagic Vision tracks key capacity metrics over time and calculates the consumption rate to provide a comprehensive view of capacity growth and free space expiration at a storage system and storage pool level.

    The number of days until running out of space can be leveraged to purchase more storage for the impacted storage system.

    AIOps via SaaS Delivery

    Advantages to adopting a cloud model include rapid deployment, minimal on-premise setup, offloading staff resources required to deal with on-premise installation, operations and product maintenance, and easy access to IntelliMagic consulting services to supplement local skills.
