MTBF and MTRS by service {#mbi-hgs-hc-by-service-mtbf-mtrs}

Description

This widget provides information on the reliability (MTBF) and maintenability (MTRS) of your services as well as the level of your team's efficiency when managing downtime (MTTA). Data is shown as a top N aggregate statistic. Additional information such as current status, availability, number of events or last state change are also provided to help in decision-making.

  • MTBF (mean time between failures) represents the average duration between two DOWN states. The longer the duration, the more reliable the service.
  • MTRS (mean time to restore service) is the average duration between two failures. Services with good maintainability have a short MTRS.
  • MTTA (mean time to acknowledge) is the average duration for acknowledging DOWN states. The average is calculated only on acknowledged events.

image

Parameters

Menu description

  • Type name of group(s) (separate with ,): Indicate host group for displaying statistics.
  • Type the name of host categories to filter on (separate with ,): Indicate one or more host categories.
  • Type the name of service categories to filter on (separate with ,): Specify one or more service categories.
  • Number of host-services to display.
  • Select the reporting period.
  • Order By MTBF, MTRS or MTTA.
  • Type the name of the reporting period you want to use (has to be calculated by Centreon MBI): Make sure the reporting period must be preconfigured in MBI.
  • Display severities/availability/MTBF/MTRS/MTTA/critical events/warning events/last change: Shows or hides these columns.
  • Refresh Interval (seconds): Sets automatic refresh time for widgets.

Business View Availability,Performance and Alerts by month

This widget only works with Centreon BAM data.

Description

This widget presents a graph showing the availability, performance and alerts of one Business View (logical grouping of BAs) by month over the last 12 months.

image

Parameters

Menu description

  • Select a business view from Centreon BAM.
  • Select the reporting period.
  • Chart type: Indicate type of graph.
  • Min value for graph (leave empty for self-adjustement): Minimum value for Y-axis height.

Business Application MTBF & MTRS

This widget only works with Centreon BAM data.

Description

This widget provides information on the reliability (MTBF) and maintenability (MTRS) of your critical IT services and applications, represented in Centreon BAM. Additional information such as current status, availability, number of events or last state change are also provided to help in decision-making. Data is shown as a top N aggregate statistic.

  • MTBF (mean time between failures) represents the average duration between two DOWN states. The longer the duration, the more reliable the host.
  • MTRS (mean time to restore service) is the average duration between two failures. Hosts with good maintainability have a short MTRS.

Parameters

Menu description

  • Select an application: Select a business view. If left empty, this field retrieves all BAs (filtered by the ACLs).
  • Number of business activities to display.
  • Select the reporting period.
  • Order By: Sort the result by MTBF or MTRS.
  • Type the name of the reporting period you want to use (has to be calculated by Centreon MBI): Make sure the reporting period must be preconfigured in MBI: If this field is left empty the default reporting time period for each BA applies.
  • Display XXXXX: Shows or hides the specified columns.
  • Refresh Interval (seconds): Sets automatic refresh time for widgets.
