Share Your ExperienceProduct Overview
The architecture of the VM Performance Reporting Facility comprised several key components. The data collection module was responsible for gathering performance metrics from various system resources, including CPU, memory, and I/O devices. The reporting engine processed the collected data and generated reports.
The data storage mechanism stored the collected data in structured files. The CLI provided the primary interface for interacting with the facility, allowing administrators to issue commands such as `QUERY`, `DISPLAY`, and `COLLECT`. Configuration was managed through control files that specified the data collection parameters and reporting options.
The facility did not use any external databases or network ports. The Performance Toolkit for VM offers a more modern and scalable architecture.
