Avg. Operation Latency

Average latency of read and write operations on a statistic object in a sampling period.

Indicates the average time required by a file system to process read/write requests from an NFS or CIFS client.

Avg. Write Operation Latency

Average latency of write operations on a statistic object in a sampling period.

Indicates the average time required by a file system to process write requests from an NFS or CIFS client.

Avg. Read Operation Latency

Average latency of read operations on a statistic object in a sampling period.

Indicates the average time required by a file system to process read requests from an NFS or CIFS client.

Read and write request data amount processed by a module per second.

Indicates the volume of data being read and written per second.

Avg. CPU Usage (%)

CPU usage in a statistical period. By default, the statistical period is 5 seconds.

Indicates the service load on the CPU.

Avg. Memory Usage (%)

Cache usage in a statistical period. By default, the statistical period is 5 seconds.

Indicates the cache usage.

Max. CPU Usage (%)

Maximum CPU usage of a statistical object in a sampling period.

Indicates the maximum CPU usage of all nodes.

Avg. Read I/O Size

Average size of read I/Os from the last sampling point in time till now.

Indicates the change of read I/O sizes.

Avg. Write I/O Size

Average size of write I/Os from the last sampling point in time till now.

Indicates the change of write I/O sizes.

Usage (%)

Percentage of request processing period and queuing period in the statistical period.

Indicates the service load of a specific object.

Avg. I/O Response Time

Time required to process a request within a statistical period, including the waiting time.

Indicates the speed of processing I/O requests. A longer queue indicates more waiting requests. In this case, the average response time of each request increases. If the service load is stable, a longer queue indicates longer response time.

Max. I/O Response Time

Maximum average I/O response time in all statistical periods after the performance statistics collection starts. The average I/O response time refers to the time required to process one read or write request within a statistical period. The response time includes the waiting time. The default statistical period is five seconds.

Indicates the maximum time required by the system to process a read or write request after the performance statistics collection starts.
