Due to the massive data center itself the characteristics of high dynamic monitoring data center collection are also facing some challenges, to enrich the monitoring means, to reflect data center operation data, rather than for illusion.
Data center to monitor, it is necessary to have three characteristics: real-time, data center monitoring data should be collected in real time, so that the data center control management in a timely manner, the real time include the time periodic polling data, the polling cycle short real-time higher and higher, the shorter the cycle, the data from the single shoulds not be too big, there are some data report by various operating equipment in real time.
Extensibility, in the whole life cycle, data center is not likely to be static, and with the expansion of business volume, there is also expanding demand.
Monitoring and data collection system should be convenient adjustment, for existing or new equipment to add a new monitoring index of the increase, according to the data center changes, constantly adjust monitoring system, don't let the monitoring system has become the ornament.
Intelligence, monitoring system is not to collect data, to be able to have data analysis capability, but also to filter the invalid data collected, and use the law of the tree to obtain the most effective data.
Environmental temperature acquisition cabinet, for example, in a room can have hundreds of cabinets, each cabinet temperature can't be the same, some difference is very big, even at this time will not be able to point to covering, need more different cabinet temperature acquisition, repeatedly gathering at the same time, according to data collected by adding some weighting algorithm, which calculates the reasonable data.
There are many kinds of systems in the data center, which makes the monitoring system very large and the design of the monitoring system is extremely complicated.
With an average data center monitoring system, to include the power supply and distribution monitoring, environmental monitoring, security monitoring, air conditioning data monitoring, the screen center, management, monitoring, etc., the higher the reliability of data center, monitoring system more perfect, monitoring project is very wide.
In table 1, part of the content for distribution monitoring is listed.
Through to the power supply and distribution monitoring, timely understanding of the operation of the power supply system in the data center, once the mains power, can in time to switch to the battery or on the standby generator set, avoid the interruption of business long time.
The monitoring data can also be sent to the operational data center, where the operation and maintenance personnel are deployed based on the data.
Through to the air conditioning environment monitoring, timely understanding of data center cooling, internal operating environment, provide a good environment to run the equipment, to avoid overheating too cold or environmental impact to the operation life of equipment.
In the data center equipment heat is very big, need air conditioning will be hot air out in time, otherwise it does great harm to the data center, and may even cause a fire incident, this area has already had a history lesson.
A closed good data center machine room, air conditioning a halt half an hour, some equipment downtime is likely to happen, some equipment automatic protection is not good enough, continuous high temperature may cause short circuit, produce sparks, fire.
With a comprehensive air conditioning system, this can be avoided.
There is also a monitoring system that is very important, which is management monitoring, which is a reference to the effective management of data centers.
In table 4 lists the management monitoring the main content of the involved, this part is usually controlled by managers, the comprehensive management on the data center, not just the business level, and personnel training, assessment, attendance, etc.
In addition to the above the monitoring indicators, and fire control, security, video monitoring, entrance guard system, log management, account management, etc., data centers need to monitor the contents of the very much, the above is just to take out the most critical part is presented.
Some of these monitoring system involves many professional technology, design also is very complex, needs to be done by a professional team to deploy, do a complete set of data center monitoring system as difficult to build the data center itself.
The performance of a data center monitoring system directly determines the operational level of the data center.
Therefore, if the data center is to be evaluated, the monitoring system is often an important part of the investigation, which is a direct reflection of the data center level.
The fundamental goal of data center monitoring is to achieve as high a system availability as possible with minimal operating costs.
High availability is the most important data center level performance standards, like high availability management and monitoring system of a pair of glasses, with it the whole data center operation can be clear at a glance, has realized the goal of high availability management foundation.
