ABSTRACT:
A system and method for processing performance metric data and converting the data from Universal/Uniform Data Format (UDF) to a form readable by data analysis/reporting tools such as SAS IT Service Vision. Performance metric data is collected by collection agents in UDF files. Universal/Uniform Data Format files produced by the same type of collection agent are reformatted and mapped to a dataset having a number of records or observations. The datasets are sorted by grouping the records according to a characteristic such as an attribute and performance data tables are constructed from the sorted datasets in the form of SAS datasets. The SAS datasets may be read by data analysis/reporting tools that use the datasets to produce charts and graphs of computer system performance for display.
