Solaris Zone Details dashboard

The Solaris Zone Details dashboard provides the configuration and capacity-specific details of the selected zone. You can use this information to analyze the zone capacity.

Important

Do not make the dashboard editable by using the Make editable option in the dashboard settings. If you want to customize the dashboard, we recommend that you create a copy of the dashboard and customize it.

The dashboard displays the capacity usage trend in charts. The GIB, MIB, or TIB units specified in the charts are the same as GB, MB, or TB.

To view the Solaris Zone Details dashboard

Open BMC Helix Dashboards from BMC Helix Portal.
From the navigation menu, click Dashboards.
Search for the Helix Continuous Optimization folder and select it.
Click Solaris Zone Details.
From the Zone list, select a zone to view its capacity-specific details.

You can also access this dashboard from these dashboards: Solaris LDOM Overview and Solaris Dashboard

The following table provides the parameter details and associated metrics:

Chart title	Description	Associated metrics
CPU Utilization	Percentage of CPU that is used by the zone.	Physical CPU Utilization: (Partition.CPU_UTIL * CPU_NUM) / Host.CPU_NUM Zone CPU Utilization: Partition.CPU_UTIL
Processors Configured	Number of logical processors that are configured per CPU core.	Zone:CPU_NUM Host:CPU_NUM Number of CPU Cores: (Zone.CPU_NUM / Host.CPU_THREADS_PER_CORE)
Memory Usage	Total memory that is used by the zone.	Zone.MEM_USED Zone.MEM_ACTIVE_VIRTUAL Zone:MEM_SHARED_USED
Memory Utilization	Percentage of memory used by the zone normalized by the total memory of the host.	Zone.MEM_UTIL
Disk Paging Rate	Average I/O paging rate of the disk aggregated by the host.	Zone.DISK_PAGING_IO_RATE
Disk IO Rate	Amount of data (in bytes) that is transferred per second.	Zone.DISK_TRANSFER_RATE
