About data services

Using data services, you can make data available for offline analysis and troubleshooting. For information on supported data types, see the following sections on metric streaming and log forwarding.

About metric streaming

The HPE OneView REST APIs allow you to configure the relay of enclosure, server-hardware, and power-devices performance metrics over MSMB. Following is the list of metrics supported.

  • Enclosures:

    • Rated Capacity: The limit of the enclosure’s peak power consumption, in watts.

    • Derated Capacity: The limit of the enclosure’s average power consumption, in watts.

    • Ambient Temperature: The temperature of the enclosure over the time interval in Celsius or Fahrenheit.

    • Average Power: The average power consumption of the device over the time interval, in watts.

    • Powercap: The power cap set for the enclosure, in watts.

    • Peak Power: The peak power consumption of the enclosure over the time interval, in watts.

  • Power-devices:

    • Average Power: The average power consumption of the device over the time interval, in watts.

    • Peak Power: The peak power consumption of the device over the time period, in watts.

  • Server-hardware:

    • CPU Utilization: The percentage of CPU utilized by the device over the time interval.

    • CPU Average Frequency: The speed of the device CPU over the time interval, in GHz.

    • Ambient Temperature: The temperature of the enclosure over the time interval in Celsius or Fahrenheit.

    • Average Power: The average power consumption of the device over the time interval, in watts.

    • Powercap: The user-defined power cap set for server-hardware.

    • Peak Power: The peak power consumption of the device over the time period, in watts.

About log forwarding to a remote syslog server

REST APIs can be used to configure the remote syslog destination. Once configured, the logs are streamed directly from the device using rsyslog.
