SAN connection utilization
NOTE
Connection utilization is only supported on the following managed objects: E_Ports, F_Ports,
N_Ports, 10 GE_Ports and FCIP tunnels.
NOTE
Fabrics where performance data collection is not enabled display connections as thin black lines.
Performance connection utilization for device ports provides the following features:
• Turns the utilization display on and off from the menu and toolbar.
• Displays moving dotted colored lines that originate from a port.
• Displays two lines in the topology (when turned on); one represents percentage utilization for
transmit and the other represents the percentage utilization for receive. The movement of the
line determines if it is a transmit or a receive.
- Receive (Rx) — Line moves into a port.
- Transmit (Tx) — Line moves out of a port.
• Displays different colors to represent the percentage utilization range, as shown in Figure 647
on page 1501.
