ServiceWatch Metrics
Virtual Server sends metrics to ServiceWatch. The metrics provided by default monitoring are data collected at 5‑minute intervals. If detailed monitoring is enabled, you can view data collected at 1‑minute intervals.
See How-to guides > ServiceWatch Enable Detailed Monitoring for instructions on enabling detailed monitoring of Virtual Server.
Basic Metrics
The following are the basic metrics for the Virtual Server namespace.
The indicators whose names are displayed in bold below are the indicators selected as key metrics among the default metrics provided by Virtual Server. The key metrics are used to build service dashboards that are automatically generated for each service in ServiceWatch. They can also be viewed on the Monitoring tab of the Virtual Server detail page.
Each metric provides guidance in the user guide on which statistical value is meaningful to query, and among the meaningful statistics, the values shown in bold text are the primary statistics. In the service dashboard or monitoring tab, you can view primary metrics using these primary statistics.
