Pourquoi et quand exécuter cette tâche
When you select an overlay and time duration on the floor map, the system uses TNI Data Center Overlay Configuration decision table to determine the corresponding operational data. The decision table pulls the average metric value for each Configuration Item (CI) over that duration from ClothoDB. Based on the value, the system assigns the predetermined color code. The floor map updates with these colors, so you can quickly see the status of operational status of each CI.
For example, when you select Temperature overlay and time duration as Past 3 hours, the system automatically collects the data from ClothoBD. If the current time is 9:00 PM, the system queries data from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM. Clotho returns the average metric value for each CI over that duration. This average is then evaluated against the decision table to determine the corresponding range and associated color code. Finally, each CI is visually updated on the floor map using that color, enabling you to understand the health of the datacenters.
