Introduction to Active IQ Unified Manager
Active IQ Unified Manager (formerly OnCommand Unified Manager) enables you to monitor and manage the health and performance of your ONTAP storage systems from a single interface.
Unified Manager provides the following features:
-
Discovery, monitoring, and notifications for systems that are installed with ONTAP software.
-
Dashboard to show capacity, security, and performance health of the environment.
-
Enhanced alerts, events, and threshold infrastructure.
-
Displays detailed graphs that plot workload activity over time; including IOPS (operations), MBps (throughput), latency (response time), utilization, performance capacity, and cache ratio.
-
Identifies workloads that are overusing cluster components and the workloads whose performance is impacted by the increased activity.
-
Provides suggested corrective actions that can be performed to address certain incidents and events, and a "Fix It" button for some events so you can resolve the issue immediately.
-
Integrates with OnCommand Workflow Automation to execute automated protection workflows.
-
Ability to create new workloads, such as a LUN or file share, directly from Unified Manager and assign a Performance Service Level to define the performance and storage objectives for the users accessing the application using that workload.
