Unisphere for PowerMax Performance Metrics

The PowerMax for Splunk TA ingests a wide range of metrics across each of the reporting levels. To get detailed definitions of each please consult the official Unisphere for PowerMax documentation available through the Unisphere UI in Help Options > Online Help.

When in the official documentation performance metrics can be found in the section Performance Management > Performance Management Metrics. From there you can select the performance category you want to see available metrics for.

Unfortunately this list does not provide users with the format required for each of these performance categories when querying for data via REST. To assist with this process there is a list of REST API valid metrics available in the various performance category links below. Tables within contain the each supported metric in the CamelCase format required for Unisphere (& custom metrics list), the formatted snake_case metric as seen in Splunk, and if the metric is a KPI or not.

Note

Whilst the Unisphere metrics are all in CamelCase format, the PowerMax for Splunk TA will convert them all to snake_case so all keys in Splunk PowerMax events have consistent formatting.

Note

When defining custom lists of metrics for a given performance category in PowerMax for Splunk data input configuration, metrics must be in CamelCase format. These are required for the REST requests to the Unisphere REST API, the conversion to snake_case happens after this data has been retrieved.
