OneSight Administrator Guide

Modifying System Definitions
WMI Tab – Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) can be
used to provide OneSight with in-depth information about the
configuration, status, and operational aspects of your Windows
operating system.
Instance – Enter the component that you want to monitor.
File System Information
When you add a new File System component, you must add
information to the Properties tabs to configure the data sources that
OneSight metrics use to obtain information about the file system.
Component Tab – The Component Tab shows the name of the file
system you are configuring. Changing this name will affect the File
System entry on the left side of the System Editor dialog box.
Name – In the Name box, specify a meaningful name that allows
you to identify the specific file system you are adding.
UNIX System Tab – The UNIX System tab is used when configuring
monitors to collect data on UNIX workstations. If the machine you
are configuring as a monitored system is not a UNIX machine, this
tab is unnecessary.
If you are monitoring a UNIX machine, make sure the proper
OneSight UNIX Remote Agent is installed. For help installing the
UNIX Remote Agent, see Installing the UNIX Remote Agent in
Chapter 2.
Instance – When configuring a profile for a UNIX machine, enter
the file system information for the machine you are monitoring.
For example: /dev
Information regarding specific mounted file systems for a UNIX
system can be accessed using the df utility on the UNIX shell.
