- System condition data is not displayed if the power is off at the monitored L-Server.
- If the CPU utilization status continues at 100% at the monitored L-Server, data collection timing may be delayed and an error of about
one second may occur. This may cause CPU utilization (average value for a specified unit of time) to exceed 100%.
Take into account the possibility of data errors when using this display.
Example:
If a monitored L-Server has one CPU and is displayed in units of one hour, the value in the system condition graphs and CSV file data
may be displayed as 100.03% (60.02 minutes (near equal 3601 seconds)/60 minutes) even though the upper limit for CPU utilization
is 100%.
Display examples for the Total tab and the All tab are shown below.

*1: When the information from the virtual L-server where the live migration was performed is output to CSV, the following phenomena
may occur:
Amount of data received by virtual

- Information for a certain point of time is output twice
- 20 -
- Information for a certain point of time is not output
If there is a large difference in the time and date in the VM host where the live migration was performed, the above phenomena will be
more likely to occur.
3.2.2 Configuration Information Display
The tenant, L-Platforms and L-Servers displayed in the CI list of the system condition window are managed as configuration items (CIs).
When the GID link in the CI list of the system condition window is clicked, the configuration information of the target tenant, L-Platform
or L-Server is displayed in a separate window.
A display example is shown below.
The table below explains the displayed items.
Item
Selected
Information
GID Displays the identifier set by the system to identify the configuration item.
CI Type Displays the configuration item type.
Nickname Displays the display name of the configuration item.
Record Displays the type of records held by the configuration item.
Explanation
The CI types are as follows:
- Tenant: If a tenant is selected
- L-Platform: If an L-Platform is selected
- L-Server: If an L-Server is selected
The following display names are displayed in accordance with the CI type:
- For the tenant CI type: The tenant name determined during tenant
registration ("tenant name (tenant ID)")
- For the L-Platform CI type: The L-Platform subscription name set during
L-Platform subscription
- For the L-Server CI type: The L-Server name set during L-Platform
subscription or L-Platform reconfiguration ("server name (host name)")
[0], indicating the actual information, is displayed.
- 21 -
Item Explanation
Record Detailed Tree This is a tree of the elements comprising the configuration item.
The following elements are displayed in accordance with the CI type:
- For the tenant CI type: Tenants
- For the L-Platform CI type: Instances
- For the L-Server CI type: L-Server node information
When an element is selected, the element attribute values are displayed in the
basic information.
Values are displayed as attribute values, and differ depending on the element:
-
If the element is a tenant: The value determined during tenant registration
- If the element is an instance: The value set during L-Platform
subscription
- If the element is L-Server node information: The value set during L-
Platform subscription or L-Platform reconfiguration
Basic
Information
Close button When this button is clicked, the window closes.
Attribute Displays the attribute name. When the label in the upper part is clicked, items
can be sorted by attribute name.
Value Displays the attribute value. When the label in the upper part is clicked, items
can be sorted by attribute value.
