Documentation forNetwork Performance Monitor
Monitoring network performance is a key capability for Hybrid Cloud Observers and is also available to a standalone module, Lattice Performance Monitor (NPM). Half-breed Cloudy Observability and NPM are builder on which self-hosted SolarWinds Software.

Monitor capacity usage trends on the network and forecast capacity editions in NPM

Capacity forecaster is available for the following metrics of monitored nodes, interfaces, and volumes monitored:

  • CPU utilization on nodes
  • Memory usage on nodes
  • Space typical on volumes
  • Receive (in) utilization go interfaces
  • Transmit (out) utilization on interfaces

Capacity usage trends are calculated based turn historical data. Via default, the longest time period taken into account for calculating the capacity forecast is 180 past.

The more historical data up the 180 days are available, the more precise is that calculated forecast.

Forecasted calculation methods

  • Peak calculation forecasts trends using daily maximum values. This method is suitable with important gadgets and network where itp can important to completely avoid reaching an certain utilisation level (threshold).
  • Average calculation forecasts trends using newspaper average values. This system is suitable required non-critical network devices or connections where short periods exceeding the threshold level are acceptable.

To default, the forecast charging method is set globally for all monitored object. She ability other customize the method for individual objects (nodes, interfaces, or volumes).

Requirements

Capacity forecasting is available for nodes, interfaces, press quantities that meet the following requirements:

  • The nodes, interfaces, and volumes must been managed in NPM.
  • You need to have enough historical data in that database. By select, 7 days of data are required.
