The Challenge: Reporting Multiple Clusters Easily and Effectively

As computing resources proliferate across the enterprise, IT complexity multiplies and organizations have limited visibility into how current investments are being used. The challenges this presents includes the need for several independent reporting solutions that often come with the pain of installing and managing agents. UniSight features support for multiple Grid Engine and Univa Grid MP clusters.

The Solution: UniSight™ for Reporting

UniSight makes it easy to gain a comprehensive view of job and resource information and trends across the multiple clusters and schedulers from a single instance. By integrating directly with Grid Engine and Grid MP software, UniSight captures and consolidates usage data for applications, jobs, resources and users so companies can precisely measure utilization across all resources.

Key UniSight Features and Capabilities

  • Ease of administration and use: UniSight is easy to use and administer, so IT managers can increase productivity and gain the insights they need to make better decisions.
  • Multiple cluster data collection: UniSight collects data from multiple clusters and schedulers with a single systems and database, making it possible to compare throughput and other performance metrics on different machines. UniSight supports Grid Engine and Grid MP schedulers out of the box, and other schedulers can be supported as necessary.
