New in WhatsVirtual
Managing dynamic VMware environments in a separate console from your physical servers creates gaps in visibility since you can’t properly track and isolate problems as your physical server to VM mapping shifts over time. So when problems happen, you don’t have an accurate view of:
- which servers are hosting which virtual machines (VM's);
- how the servers have performed over time;
- the cause of their failure, say, through automated restarts via VMware HA (High Availability)
This lengthens problem resolution times and makes optimal capacity planning impossible.
WhatsVirtual v2.0: Complete, reliable and seamless physical and VMware virtual environment monitoring from a single pane of glass now extends coverage to dynamic virtual machine live migrations.
- WhatsVirtual v2.0 adds new capabilities as follows –
- VMware vCenter Support
- WhatsVirtual 2.0 will discover, monitor, report, alert and control all virtual resources through the VMware vCenter for complete accuracy and reliability.
- WhatsVirtual will also monitor health, availability and performance of vCenter, which is the nerve network of your VMware infrastructure investment
- VMware vMotion Support - WhatsVirtual 2.0 will track VMs as they move across physical servers, to offer a complete and accurate mapping of VM to physical server relationships at all times, including real-time and historical information reporting and alerting.
- VMware HA (High Availability) Support- WhatsVirtual 2.0 will offer complete access to VMs as they are automatically restarted or moved to other physical servers due to hardware or Operating System failures.
- VMware Virtual Clusters Support- WhatsVirtual 2.0 will offer complete access to VMware Clusters including -
- VMware cluster configurations --so users can perform manual associations and cluster grouping right from the WhatsVirtual interface
- New out-of-the-box Workspace views to provide deep visibility across virtual cluster entities in a matter of minutes
- Alert Center thresholds configurable at the virtual cluster level to rapidly find out of issues detected anywhere in the infrastructure
- Web Reports with virtual cluster information, so users can access VMware related performance information anytime and from anywhere
With WhatsVirtual v2.0, you can truly harness the savings and agility of your virtual environment without missing a beat. Evaluate WhatsUp Gold (includes WhatsVirtual) today!
New in WhatsUp Gold Flow Monitor
New IP converged applications like VoIP, video conferencing or file sharing may be dynamically assigned UDP and TCP ports. Other enterprise or web service based apps may communicate via multiple ports and IP ranges. Your goal as a network manager is to ensure that you have full visibility into the nature of all application traffic and the bandwidth that they consume. Also, as you set policies for Quality of Service (QoS) you need to track pre and post policy performance. Only then can you be assured that your network is ready for optimal performance.
WhatsUp Gold Flow Monitor: Powerful reporting, real-time alerting and broad flow monitoring support across all industry standard protocols now extends support for dynamic application usage and advanced QoS analysis.
WhatsUp Gold Flow Monitor adds new capability as follows -
- Intelligently identify, classify and oversee NBAR (Network Based Application Recognition) traffic, including difficult-to-classify protocols and applications that utilize dynamic TCP/UDP port assignments.
- Provide full visibility into pre and post policy traffic usage, including dropped packets through advanced CBQoS (Class Based Quality of Service) support.
- Enable users to configure and associate multiple ports and IP ranges for any application, so top application reports will show real application usage from multiple data points.
- Visualize network traffic information and reports using new stacked time charts to fully understand traffic evolution over time.
- Dynamically change network traffic views and reports by adding or removing specific sources
With WhatsUp Gold Flow Monitor, you can manage all your network and application traffic and ensure the success of network traffic prioritizations and other policies. Evaluate WhatsUp Gold (includes Flow Monitor) today!
