1.7.1 System resources that are important for performance monitoring in a Docker container
The following are the system resources that are important when you use PFM - RM for Virtual Machine to monitor the performance of a Docker container.
-
CPU resource (see 1.7.3)
This is the CPU resource used by the Docker container. It is important for performance monitoring of CPU usage and other items.
-
Memory resource (see 1.7.4)
This is the memory resource used by the Docker container. It is important for performance monitoring of memory usage and other items.
-
Disk resource (see 1.7.5)
This is the disk resource used by the Docker container. It is important for performance monitoring of disk usage, disk I/O status, and other items.
-
Network resource (see 1.7.6)
This is the NIC resource used by the Docker container. It is important for performance monitoring of data send/receive speed and other items.
To set up definitions to monitor these important items, PFM - RM for Virtual Machine provides monitoring templates. Therefore, this section mainly explains monitoring methods that use monitoring templates.
