Question:
Is there a way that we can export the entire performance data collected into a CSV?
Answer:
The Economics Report will provide an overview of all devices rather than exporting metrics from each device found in the Device Details section.
Please see the following steps to complete this action:
Step 1: Navigate to the 'Add Intelligence' drop-down menu.
Step 2: Select Available reports.
Step 3: Select the Economics report.
Step 4 select 'Export to CSV' to download the file.
Please note: Devices must be discovered at OS level when the Discovery scan runs. The Device must be licensed in cloudscape in order to display hardware information such as a CPU, Ram and Storage metrics.

Question:
How utilization information is calculated in the Economics report:
Answer:
Utilization is calculated using the 95th percentile. The platform will remove the top 5% of utilization to eliminate spikes that will influence the average.
This can give you a more accurate reading of actual hardware utilization not modified by spikes in usage.

Question:
Why do the Source and Destination app/context/instance are unknown when there is no match in our application inventory?
Answer:
Source/Destination Process highlight if the appliance sees a TCP connection with process ID's but the process ends or dies before the performance command, either WIN32_process or the Linux PS command runs to identify that process, the process will be listed and unknown as will app/context/instance.
Additionally, Source / Destination App Instance is only applicable to web (e.g. IIS) applications. This would not be populated unless the connection was associated with a web app. The Process is derived from mapping the PID within netstat and the output from the list of running processes. The Context is used for internal mapping of the process and run path info.

This article highlights how to find stack membership help. You can view the stack membership documentation by selecting the "?" icon at the top right of the screen. A pop-up window will display the documentation as you hover your mouse cursor over each section.
The platform will provide an asset ID when the device is discovered. You can find each asset ID by exporting the Assets list into a CSV. You can also select 'download CSV' on the stack membership page to get a listing of assets with 'asset IDs'.
Download the CSV for a template with the correct formatting. You will need to create a separate row one for each stack. This feature will allow you to add/remove devices. Please see the example below: "uid:2997032518 unknown - out of scope 172.25.50.163 "RSS-Out Of Scope Services" "RISC Service Group: a Service-Oriented Architecture Stack". For further information please see link below to 'Building application stacks' that will provide steps for building application stacks:

Question:
Our platform currently uses MAC addresses as a unique identifier for systems discovered in the environment.
Answer:
The system having the IP address 10.151.32.66 has, through MAC address inspection, already been discovered and inventoried and is currently present in the assessment Assets. You can verify this by searching the Assets page for the hostname of the system. In the case that a system has multiple IP addresses configured, our discovery process will use the first address on which the system was discovered as the primary IP address.
This may not be the IP address you consider to be the primary address for the system, since our collection logic has no way of making this determination.

Question:
Why is there variance in tag values between assessments?
Answer:
Application instance tags use the source name of running application, and we currently only collect this data for IIS + MSSQL applications. As neither of these applications runs on Linux boxes, Linux devices would not have this tag. The reason that this tag might have variance in tag values between assessments is due to different IIS applications in each assessment.

Question:
Can the appliance throttle or step collection to avoid environmental impact?
Answer:
There is not a feature that allows the appliance to identify over-utilized systems and modify its queries to avoid further over utilization. It will be up to the deployment and on-site team to monitor systems as the assessment is running/initialized.
If this a concern of the team, please start the initial scan small and monitor the network and server impact as the inventory and performance collection processes are both performed.
