Baseline information is operational data during normal system operations that provides clues that can help you solve problems.
You can gather useful baseline information using the StorageGRID system:
| Property | Value | How to obtain |
|---|---|---|
| Average storage consumption | _____________/consumed/day GB _____________/consumed/day % |
Go to the Dashboard in the Grid Manager, and click  for one of the Available Storage charts.Find a period where the operation is fairly stable and estimate the daily storage consumption rate in bytes and in percentage. You can collect this information for the entire system or for a specific data center. |
| Rate of S3/Swift Operations | _____________ operations/s |
Go to the Dashboard in the Grid Manager. Under Protocol Operations, view the values for S3 rate and Swift rates. |
| Failed S3/Swift Operations | _____________ |
Select . Then, select . Under API Operations, view the value for S3 Operations - Failed or Swift Operations - Failed. |
| ILM Evaluation Rate | _____________ objects/second |
Select . Choose a range (1 hour, 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 1 year, or Custom). Hover your cursor over the ILM Queue graph to view the Evaluation Rate. |
| Average Query Latency | _____________ milliseconds |
Select . In the Queries table, view the value for Average Latency. |
| Failed Queries | _____________ |
Select . In the Queries table, view the value for Queries - Failed (timed-out). |
| Failed Queries for Consistency Level Unmet | _____________ |
Select . In the Queries table, view the value for Queries - Failed (consistency level unmet). |
The following example screenshot shows how you can select each attribute under each service to view baseline values for that attribute on the Overview tab:
