What is the Abacus Performance Assessment?
The IBM-certified engineers at Abacus perform a comprehensive review of your IBM i environment, summarizing performance metrics in an easy to follow graphical “State of the Union” deliverable.
Your performance assessment deliverable includes, but is not limited to, information such as:
- Current system specifications (model, feature code, serial number, release, processor, partitions, CPW, memory)
- Disk specifications (total disk, total ASP, total arms, RAID cache controllers, and disk utilization percentage)
- LPAR properties (processing units, virtual processors, CPW, LPAR memory, dedicated/shared, capped/uncapped)
- User licensing information (unique interactive users, unique “other” users, maximum interactive users, maximum “other” users, and maximum current users)
- CPW daily averages (historical daily CPU percentage utilization, historical daily CPW utilization)
- Maximum CPW percentage (maximum interactive CPU percentage utilization, maximum total CPU utilization)
- Memory analysis (total faults per second, faulting factor, disk Ops/Sec faulting percentage, and machine pool service level)
- Peak Day “Baseline” data to be used for “what if” modeling purposes
The assessment deliverable will be reviewed during a presentation with our capacity planning and hardware performance experts, so you have a clear understanding of the results. We can even graphically model optional performance upgrades as well.
