Operations represent the activity of all user-defined and system-defined workloads on a cluster. The operations statistics help you determine whether cluster processes, such as making backups or running deduplication, are impacting workload response times or might have caused, or contributed to, a performance incident.
When analyzing performance incidents, you can use the operations statistics to determine if a performance incident was caused by an issue on the cluster. You can identify the specific workload activities that might have been the main contributors to the performance incident. Operations are measured in operations per second (ops/sec).
This example shows the Operations chart on the Volume Details page. The actual operations statistics is a blue line and the expected range of operations statistics is gray.
