Implementing Performance Management

Performance management (PM) on the Cisco IOS XR Software provides a framework to perform these tasks:

  • Collect and export PM statistics to a TFTP server for data storage and retrieval

  • Monitor the system using extensible markup language (XML) queries

  • Configure threshold conditions that generate system logging messages when a threshold condition is matched.

The PM system collects data that is useful for graphing or charting system resource utilization, for capacity planning, for traffic engineering, and for trend analysis.


YANG Data Model

You can programmatically monitor the system resources using openconfig-system.yang OpenConfig data model. To get started with using data models, see the Programmability Configuration Guide for Cisco NCS 5500 Series Routers.

Prerequisites for Implementing Performance Management

Before implementing performance management in your network operations center (NOC), ensure that these prerequisites are met:

  • You must install and activate the Package Installation Envelope (PIE) for the manageability software.

  • You must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. The command reference guides include the task IDs required for each command. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

  • You must have connectivity with a TFTP server.

Information About Implementing Performance Management

PM Functional Overview

The Performance Management (PM) frameworks consists of two major components:

  • PM statistics server

  • PM statistics collectors

PM Statistics Server

The PM statistics server is the front end for statistic collections, entity instance monitoring collections, and threshold monitoring. All PM statistic collections and threshold conditions configured through the command-line interface (CLI) or through XML schemas are processed by the PM statistics server and distributed among the PM statistics collectors.

PM Statistics Collector

The PM statistics collector collects statistics from entity instances and stores that data in memory. The memory contents are checkpointed so that information is available across process restarts. In addition, the PM statistics collector is responsible for exporting operational data to the XML agent and to the TFTP server.

PM Component Communications illustrates the relationship between the components that constitute the PM system.

PM Benefits

The PM system provides these benefits:

  • Configurable data collection policies

  • Efficient transfer of statistical data in the binary format via TFTP

  • Entity instance monitoring support

  • Threshold monitoring support

  • Data persistency across process restarts and processor failovers

PM Statistics Collection Overview

A PM statistics collection first gathers statistics from all the attributes associated with all the instances of an entity in the PM system. It then exports the statistical data in the binary file format to a TFTP server. For example, a Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) statistics collection gathers statistical data from all the attributes associated with all MPLS LDP sessions on the router.

This table lists the entities and the associated instances in the PM system.

Filenaming Convention Applied to Binary Files

These filenaming convention is applied to PM statistics collections that are sent to the directory location configured on the TFTP server:

<LR_NAME>_<EntityName>_<SubentityName>_<TimeStamp>

How to Implement Performance Management

Configuring an External TFTP Server or Local Disk for PM Statistics Collection

You can export PM statistical data to an external TFTP server or dump the data to the local file system. Both the local and TFTP destinations are mutually exclusive and you can configure either one of them at a time.

Configuration Examples

This example configures an external TFTP server for PM statistics collection. 

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router(config)# performance-mgmt resources tftp-server 10.3.40.161 directory mypmdata/datafiles
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router(config)# commit

This example configures a local disk for PM statistics collection. 

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router(config)# performance-mgmt resources dump local
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router(config)# commit

Configuring PM Statistics Collection Templates

PM statistics collections are configured through PM statistics collection templates. A PM statistics collection template contains the entity, the sample interval, and the number of sampling operations to be performed before exporting the data to a TFTP server. When a PM statistics collection template is enabled, the PM statistics collection gathers statistics for all attributes from all instances associated with the entity configured in the template. You can define multiple templates for any given entity; however, only one PM statistics collection template for a given entity can be enabled at a time.

Guidelines for Configuring PM Statistics Collection Templates

When creating PM statistics collection templates, follow these guidelines:

  • You must configure a TFTP server resource or local dump resource if you want to export statistics data onto a remote TFTP server or local disk.

  • You can define multiple templates for any given entity, but at a time you can enable only one PM statistics collection template for a given entity.
  • When configuring a template, you can designate the template for the entity as the default template using the default keyword or name the template. The default template contains the following default values:
    • A sample interval of 10 minutes.
    • A sample size of five sampling operations.
  • The sample interval sets the frequency of the sampling operations performed during the sampling cycle. You can configure the sample interval with the sample-interval command. The range is from 1 to 60 minutes.

  • The sample size sets the number of sampling operations to be performed before exporting the data to the TFTP server. You can configure the sample size with the sample-size command. The range is from 1 to 60 samples.


    Note

    Specifying a small sample interval increases CPU utilization, whereas specifying a large sample size increases memory utilization. The sample size and sample interval, therefore, may need to be adjusted to prevent system overload.

  • The export cycle determines how often PM statistics collection data is exported to the TFTP server. The export cycle can be calculated by multiplying the sample interval and sample size (sample interval x sample size = export cycle).

  • Once a template has been enabled, the sampling and export cycles continue until the template is disabled with the no form of the performance-mgmt apply statistics command.

  • You must specify either a node with the location command or enable the PM statistic collections for all nodes using the location all command when enabling or disabling a PM statistic collections for the following entities:
    • Node CPU
    • Node memory
    • Node process

Configuration Example

This example shows how to create and enable a PM statistics collection template. 

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router(config)# performance-mgmt statistics interface generic-counters template template 1 
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router(config)# performance-mgmt statistics interface generic-counters template 1 sample-size 10 
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router(config)# performance-mgmt statistics interface generic-counters template 1 sample-interval 5
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router(config)# performance-mgmt apply statistics interface generic-counters 1 
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router# commit

Enabling PM Entity Instance Monitoring

Entity instance monitoring gathers statistics from attributes associated with a specific entity instance. When an entity instance is enabled for monitoring, the PM system gathers statistics from only attributes associated with the specified entity instance. The PM system uses the sampling cycle that is configured in the PM statistics collection template for the entity being monitored. Entity instance monitoring, however, is a separate process from that of the PM statistics collection; therefore, it does not interfere with PM statistics collection. Furthermore, the data from entity instance monitoring collection is independent of PM statistics collection. Unlike PM statistics collection, the data from entity instance monitoring is not exported to the TFTP server. For more information about all the attributes associated with each entity instance and commands, see Performance Management: Details.

Configuration Example

This example shows how to enable entity instance monitoring for a node CPU entity instance. 

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router(config)# performance-mgmt apply monitor node cpu location 0/RP0/CPU0 default
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router(config)# commit

Configuring PM Threshold Monitoring Templates

The PM system supports the configuration of threshold conditions to monitor an attribute (or attributes) for threshold violations. Threshold conditions are configured through PM threshold monitoring templates. When a PM threshold template is enabled, the PM system monitors all instances of the attribute (or attributes) for the threshold condition configured in the template. If at end of the sample interval a threshold condition is matched, the PM system generates a system logging message for each instance that matches the threshold condition. For the list of attributes and value ranges associated with each attribute for all the entities, see Performance Management: Details

Guidelines for Configuring PM Threshold Monitoring Templates

While you configure PM threshold monitoring templates, follow these guidelines:

  • Once a template has been enabled, the threshold monitoring continues until the template is disabled with the no form of the performance-mgmt apply thresholds command.

  • Only one PM threshold template for an entity can be enabled at a time.

  • You must specify either a node with the location command or enable the PM statistic collections for all nodes using the location all command when enabling or disabling a PM threshold monitoring template for the following entities:
    • Node CPU
    • Node memory
    • Node process

Configuration Example

This example shows how to create and enable a PM threshold monitoring template. In this example, a PM threshold template is created for the CurrMemory attribute of the node memory entity. The threshold condition in this PM threshold condition monitors the CurrMemory attribute to determine whether the current memory use is greater than 50 percent. 


Router# conf t
Router(config)# performance-mgmt thresholds node memory template template20
Router(config-threshold-cpu)# CurrMemory gt 50 percent
Router(config-threshold-cpu)# sample-interval 5
Router(config-threshold-cpu)# exit
Router(config)# performance-mgmt apply thresholds node memory location 0/RP0/CPU0 template20
Router(config)# commit

Configuring Instance Filtering by Regular Expression

This task explains defining a regular expression group which can be applied to one or more statistics or threshold templates. You can also include multiple regular expression indices. The benefits of instance filtering using the regular expression group is as follows.

  • You can use the same regular expression group that can be applied to multiple templates.

  • You can enhance flexibility by assigning the same index values.

  • You can enhance the performance by applying regular expressions, which has OR conditions.


Note

The Instance filtering by regular-expression is currently supported in interface entities only (Interface basic-counters, generic-counters, data-rates.

Configuration Example

This example shows how to define a regular expression group. 

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router(config)# performance-mgmt regular-expression regexp
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router(config-perfmgmt-regex)# index 10 match
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router(config)# commit
