To monitor the Vethernet interface statistics for a specific interval, you can use the UCS Manager's built-in monitoring functionality to collect data over a period of time. Here's how you can set up an automated monitoring process for 30 minutes or 1 hour:
1. Access the UCS Manager GUI.
2. In the Navigation pane, click on the "Admin" tab.
3. Expand "Monitoring" and click on "Monitoring Policies".
4. Click on "Create Monitoring Policy" to create a new policy.
5. Provide a Name and Description for the policy.
6. Set the "Collection Interval" to your desired time frame (e.g., 30 minutes or 1 hour).
7. Under "Statistics Collection Policy," enable the "VIF Statistics" checkbox.
8. Click "Save Changes" to create the policy.
9. Apply the new monitoring policy to the desired service profile(s) or organization(s).
After setting up the monitoring policy, UCS Manager will automatically collect Vethernet interface statistics for the specified interval. You can then view these statistics in the GUI or export the data for further analysis.
To view the statistics in the UCS Manager GUI:
1. In the Navigation pane, click on the "Servers" tab.
2. Expand "Service Profiles" and locate the service profile associated with the Vethernet interface.
3. Click on the service profile, and then click on the "Statistics" tab in the Work pane.
4. Select "VIF" from the "Statistics Type" dropdown menu.
5. In the "Time Range" dropdown menu, select the desired time frame (e.g., 30 minutes or 1 hour).
6. Locate the Vethernet interface (e.g., Vethernet15851) in the list and click on it to view the detailed statistics.
Remember, you can also export the collected data in CSV format for further analysis or reporting.
