Resuming/Suspending Analytics Datasets and
Worksheets
Analytics datasets may be resumed or suspended. This is particularly useful when tracking
down sporadic performance issues, and when enabling these datasets 24x7 is not desirable.
For example, imagine you noticed a spike in CPU activity once or twice a week, and other
analytics showed an associated drop in NFS performance. You enable some additional datasets,
but you don't quite have enough information to prove what the problem is. If you could enable
the NFS by hostname and filename datasets, you are certain you will understand the cause a lot
better. However those particular datasets can be heavy handed - leaving them enabled 24x7 will
degrade performance for everyone. This is where the resume/suspend dataset actions may be
of use. A threshold alert could be configured to resume paused NFS by hostname and filename
datasets, only when the CPU activity spike is detected; a second alert can be configured to then
suspend those datasets, after a short interval of data is collected. The end result - you collect
the data you need only during the issue, and minimize the performance impact of this data
collection.

These actions are to resume or suspend an entire Analytics worksheet, which may contain
numerous datasets. The reasons for doing this are similar to those for resuming and suspending
datasets. For more information, see
