The System Statistics application in Usage Engine collects and consolidates execution information automatically. When the system is active, resource utilization and workflow processing is continuously monitored, and the statistics is saved in the internal database. Graphs can be viewed in the Desktop, DROnline, and – if installed – Grafana. 

Desktop 

Using the System Statistics UI, a user can select statistics for hosts, pico instances, and workflows for periods dating back two months. Available metrics: 

Host

  • Context Switch (/s) 
  • Swapped To Disk (blocks/s) 
  • Swapped In From Disk (blocks/s) 
  • Processes Waiting For Run (#)

Grafana 

Grafana can be used to create customized dashboards. Usage Engine includes a set of example dashboards to display System Statistics in a similar fashion to the Desktop view. Please refer to section 7.2 for more monitoring options using Grafana.
