Device heath check calculation

Device health calculation and categorization of performance as Good, Average, or Poor.

Calculating device health and performance

Performance for each device health category is classified as Good, Average, or Poor by calculating the weighted average of performance indicators from its associated subcategories.

Performance for each subcategory of a device health category is classified as Good, Average, or Poor by calculating the weighted average of performance indicators from associated device metrics.

  • Formula used to calculate the subcategory performance indicators

    Sub-category performance indicator= (weight of evaluation metrics performance indicator)/total number of evaluation metrics for the subcategory)

    where,

    • Evaluation metric performance indicator: Performance indicator (Good, Average, Poor) of the evaluation metrics' value as defined in the metric definition table. For more information, see Customize metric definitions.
    • Weight: Weight of the performance indicator. After all the subcategories are marked as Good, Average, and Poor. The performance of the category is calculated by the weighted average of subcategories performance indicator.
    • Score range definition

    The following defines the performance range and its corresponding classification:

    • Good if the performance indicator average value lies in the range of (1, 1.67)
    • Average performance indicator average value lies in the range of (1.67, 2.33)
    • Poor performance indicator average value lies in the range of (2.33, 5)
    • Formula used to calculate the parent category performance indicator:

    Category performance indicator= (sum of sub-category performance indicator weights)/total number of sub-categories)

  • Example

    Consider the following example for the calculating the performance indicator for Device performance category that has the following subcategories:

    SubcategoryMetricMetric valueSubcategory performance metric calculationSubcategory Performance indicator
    Disk SpaceDisk Usage90Subcategory performance indicator = 5 (Weight of Poor indicator) / 1 (total no. of evaluation metrics for the subcategory)Poor
    Battery HealthBattery healthGoodSubcategory performance indicator = 1 (Weight of Good indicator) / 1 (total no. of evaluation metrics for the subcategory)Good
    Computer RestartDevice uptime1Subcategory performance indicator = 1 (Weight of Good indicator) / 1 (total no. of evaluation metrics for the subcategory)Good

    Performance indicator for Device performance category.

    • Subcategory performance indicators = Poor, Average, Good
    • Sum of weight of subcategory performance indicators: (5 + 1 + 1) = 7 Performance indicator = 7 / 3 (no. Of subcategories) = 2.33
    • The device performance category is Poor (as 2.33 falls under the Poor range)
