Monitoring VAST Databases

You can monitor VAST Database performance and capacity as follows:

On the cluster's dashboard in the VAST Web UI, select VAST DB in the Performance widget to display the following database metrics:
- Bandwidth. The rate at which data is transmitted between the client and VAST Cluster.
- Running. The number of currently running database queries.
- Scanned. The number of database table rows scanned per second.
Use predefined analytics reports, which can be found under Predefined Analytics in the Analytics -> Analytics page in the VAST Web UI:
- VAST DB Average Query run time: Shows the number of running queries and the average duration of a query run on the VAST cluster.
- VAST DB Bytes per second: Shows the number of returned or read bytes per second.
- VAST DB Rows Metrics: Shows the number of rows that were scanned, imported, deleted, updated, inserted or filtered out per second.
Create a customized analytics report using various database-related metrics.

Tip

When creating a customized analytics report via VAST Web UI, search for VAST DB keywords to filter Available Properties for database-related entries.
View capacity analytics on the VAST Database views in the Analytics -> Capacity page.

The analytics includes usable and logical capacity, as well as data reduction.
