XOS2 metric disposal notification

By installing the XOS agent on your database server, you can monitor the status of the server's resources. For the collected key metrics, see the following documents:

Note

Changes in the XOS metric​

Database monitoring provides two metrics for CPU usage: CPU(xos) and CPU(xos2). In DBX agent 1.7.0 or later, both metrics are to be integrated into one.

Metric name before changeMetric name after changeUnit
cpu(xos2)
cpu(xos)		cpu(xos)Utilization (%)
cpu_idle(xos2)
cpu_idle(xos)		cpu_idle(xos)%
cpu_sys(xos2)
cpu_sys(xos)		cpu_sys(xos)%
cpu_user(xos2)
cpu_user(xos)		cpu_user(xos)%
cpu_iowait(xos2)
cpu_iowait(xos)		cpu_iowait(xos)%
Note

In DBX agent 1.7.0 or earlier, if the value of the cpu(xos) metric is 9000, the value of the cpu(xos2) metric has been collected as 90.

After updating the DBX agent to version 1.7.0, if you have configured alert notifications or configured a dashboard with existing metrics, change the metrics settings. The threshold values set in Alert > Event configuration are automatically converted. Among the alert notifications you have configured, check whether the notifications using the above five metrics have been converted properly. See the following:

Updating the DBX agent​

In Management > Agent update, update the agent 1.7.0 or earlier.

Update agent

Note

For more information about the agent update, see the following.

Checking the changed metrics​

After updating the DBX agent, check whether the cpu(xos2) metric has been changed to cpu(xos) under the Database tab in Alert > Event configuration.

  • Before update of the DBX agent

    Event configuration

  • After updating the DBX agent

    Event configuration

Tip

The user-configured metrics notifications and dashboard settings must be modified manually.

  • In Alert > Event configuration, under the Metrics tab, change the event set to cpu(xos2) to cpu(xos).

  • In the following menu path, check whether there are any settings that need to be changed from cpu(xos2) to cpu(xos).

    • Dashboard > Instance monitoring

    • Dashboard > Flex board

Note

  • If the metric, cpu(xos) on the dashboard appears differently from the previous after the regular service release in March (2024.3.27 18:00), update the DBX agent to version 1.7.0 or later. For more information about the agent update, see the following.
