Hypervisor monitoring is the process of tracking the performance and health of virtual machines (VMs), hosts, and clusters in a virtualized environment. It allows IT professionals to ensure their virtual infrastructure is running efficiently and to quickly identify and resolve any issues that may arise.
Hypervisor monitoring is crucial because it helps maintain the stability and performance of your virtual environment. It allows you to detect potential bottlenecks in your data center's hardware layer that might impact your virtual servers. By continuously monitoring your virtualized infrastructure, you can proactively address issues, optimize resource allocation, and ensure smooth operation of your business-critical applications.
PRTG uses preconfigured sensor types for major virtualization platforms such as VMware and Microsoft Hyper-V. It doesn't require any agents to be installed on ESXi, vCenter, Hyper-V, or your VMs. PRTG can monitor different aspects of your virtual environment, including the performance of VMs, hosts, and even VMs that have been moved by Live Migration in Hyper-V clusters.
PRTG can monitor a wide range of metrics for hypervisors. For Hyper-V, it offers five out-of-the-box sensors that track the health status of the Hyper-V infrastructure. These include CPU usage, memory utilization, network performance, and disk I/O metrics for both hosts and VMs. For VMware environments, PRTG can pull various VMware-specific metrics that are extremely useful for monitoring vSphere infrastructure.
PRTG helps optimize Hyper-V environments by providing comprehensive visibility into your virtual infrastructure. It allows you to monitor the performance of Hyper-V VMs, hosts, and clusters. With PRTG, you can track resource usage, identify overloaded or underutilized VMs, and make informed decisions about resource allocation. The tool's real-time monitoring and alerting capabilities help you quickly respond to issues, ensuring optimal performance of your Hyper-V environment.
Yes, PRTG supports hypervisor monitoring across multiple platforms. It offers preconfigured sensor types for most major virtualization platforms, including VMware, Microsoft Hyper-V, Citrix XenServer, and Microsoft Azure. This multi-platform support allows you to monitor diverse virtual environments from a single interface, making it easier to manage complex, heterogeneous infrastructures.
In PRTG, “sensors” are the basic monitoring elements. One sensor usually monitors one measured value in your network, for example the traffic of a switch port, the CPU load of a server, or the free space on a disk drive. On average, you need about 5-10 sensors per device or one sensor per switch port.
Paessler conducted trials in over 600 IT departments worldwide to tune its network monitoring software closer to the needs of sysadmins. The result of the survey: over 95% of the participants would recommend PRTG – or already have.
Paessler PRTG is used by companies of all sizes. Sysadmins love PRTG because it makes their job a whole lot easier.
