This article describes how to review the performance information from CLI, API calls, and GUI from FortiAnalyzer and FortiManager.
FortiAnalyzer, FortiManager.
The FortiAnalyzer information regarding its performance can be gathered using the CLI, GUI, and API calls which is possible only in the latest versions (v7.6.x and above).
To review the performance information from the CLI use the following commands:
get system performance

Used(Excluded NICE): 5.81%
%used %user %nice %sys %idle %iowait %irq %softirq

Note: The top command will show twice only the active processes.
execute iotop -P -b -n 1
Note: iotop will show the processes based on their IO activity.
execute iotps -w -t 2
Note: Use this command to list system processes sorted by their read/write system call rate.
To review the performance information with an API call (from version 7.6 and above).
The API call:

To review the storage information from the GUI:
Troubleshooting:
The following commands can be used on the FortiManager/FortiAnalyzer CLI to debug the API Calls:
diagnose debug service httpd 255
diagnose debug service main 255
