Solaris Dashboard

Example: Visualize and analyze the capacity of the Solaris infrastructure

Paul is a capacity planner in an IT organization. He is responsible for planning and managing the infrastructure capacity, and wants to manage the capacity of the Solaris infrastructure.

Paul can use the out-of-the-box Solaris Dashboard to analyze the capacity-specific parameters of this Solaris infrastructure. He can verify whether any of the parameters are saturated or nearing saturation. This information can help him plan for the appropriate capacity-specific changes in the infrastructure to mitigate risks.
