  • Method and system for providing and viewing performance analysis of resource groups
    Patent number: 7016972
    Abstract: A method and system for providing performance analysis on a computer system is disclosed. The computer system includes at least one resource group and at least one node. The method and system include obtaining performance data for a plurality of monitors for the at least one resource group and analyzing the performance data to determine whether performance of the system can be improved using the at least one resource group. Preferably, performance is improved by moving the resource group between nodes. The method and system include graphically displaying the performance data graphically displaying performance data for at least one monitor of the plurality of monitors for the at least one resource group.

  • Method and system for providing performance analysis for clusters
    Publication number: 20030014507
    Abstract: A method and system for providing performance analysis on a system including a cluster is described. The cluster includes a plurality of nodes. The method and system include obtaining data for the plurality of nodes and analyzing the data. The data obtained relates to a plurality of monitors for the plurality of nodes. The analysis is used to determine whether performance of the cluster can be improved. The method and system also include providing at least one remedy to improve performance of the cluster if the performance of the cluster can be improved. The at least one remedy is capable of including a cluster level remedy.
