Viewing Branch Warming reports
The Reports > Endpoints: Branch Warming report summarizes the overall bi-directional warming benefits to and from the branch SteelHead for every endpoint connected to the controller.
The Branch Warming report includes these statistics that describe branch warming utilization for the time period you specify:
• Warmed bytes sent to local SteelHeads—Specifies the count of warmed bytes sent to the local SteelHead from Client Accelerator endpoints.
• Warmed bytes pulled from local SteelHead—Specifies the bytes pulled from the local SteelHead rather than transferred over WAN because of branch warming. In addition, it indicates the percentage share of warmed bytes in total bytes generated by the client
• Total Branch Warming Bytes generated—Specifies the sum of bytes sent to the local SteelHead from the Client Accelerator endpoints plus the bytes pulled by the Client Accelerator endpoints from local SteelHeads.
What this report tells you
The Branch Warming report answers this question: How many bytes were pushed and pulled to warm the branch SteelHead and Client Accelerator data stores?
If the controller is part of a cluster and you set the aggregated statistics, the endpoint report displays time-series data aggregated across the entire cluster. A message appears at the bottom of the report stating whether the data was successfully retrieved from all the cluster members. For details, see
About Controller Clusters. If the controller is part of a cluster and you do not set aggregated statistics, the report only shows data from the current Client Accelerator Controller.
