SolarWinds DPA has agentless architecture that allows for extended database monitoring without draining performance from production systems. SolarWinds DPA architecture SolarWinds Database Performance Analyzer consists of: n A SolarWinds DPA server n A SolarWinds DPA repository database n One or more database instances you want to monitor The SolarWinds DPA server collects performance data from a set of database instances you choose to monitor. SolarWinds DPA stores this data in the repository database. For optimal performance, the repository and the monitored database instances must reside on the same high-speed local area network (LAN). If your environment contains database instances that are on separate LANs, SolarWinds recommends setting up a repository on each LAN. The SolarWinds DPA server provides a web interface that displays performance data in a web browser from any computer with access to the SolarWinds DPA server. SolarWinds recommends installing one SolarWinds DPA instance on a computer. If you must install multiple instances on the same computer, contact www.solarwinds.com/support. Two key functions of the SolarWinds DPA server n Collecting data from the monitored database instances and storing the data in the repository database. n Providing a web interface that displays performance data from any computer with access to the SolarWinds DPA server. From this interface, you can configure monitoring, alerting, and email reports. Monitored database instances SolarWinds DPA remotely connects to each database instance using Java Database Connectivity (JDBC). SolarWinds DPA causes less than 1% overhead on the instance. No software is installed on the monitored server. 9 Monitored virtualization environment In a virtual environment, SolarWinds DPA can remotely connect to each VMware vCenter Server, ESX, or ESXi host. SolarWinds DPA causes less than 1% overhead on the monitored systems. No software is installed in the vCenter Server, ESX or ESXi host, or virtual machines. Before you install 1. Identify the server where SolarWinds DPA will be installed. Make sure the server: n Is powerful enough to handle the load of the potential number of monitored database instances that you will register. See the Server requirements. n Has network connectivity to the SolarWinds DPA repository and each of the monitored database instances that you will register. SolarWinds DPA can be installed on the same server as the repository instance, although it is not required or recommended. 2. Identify the Microsoft SQL Server or Oracle database instance that will host the SolarWinds DPA repository and make sure: a. The repository is not installed in a critical production database instance. b. You have credentials with SYSADMIN privileges for a Microsoft SQL Server repository. c. You have credentials with database administrator (DBA) privileges for an Oracle repository. 3. Obtain login credentials for each of the monitored databases. See the table below. SolarWinds DPA performs best if a high-speed network exists between the repository and the monitored database uploads/s1/ dpa-administrator-guide.pdf
