IMPORTANT:

After the quick setup, HP P6000 Performance Advisor does not automatically monitor any
newly created performance objects in the storage systems. You must manually add them for
monitoring. For more information, see

“Adding performance objects for monitoring” (page 55)

.

HP strongly recommends that you wait for HP P6000 Performance Advisor to finish adding
the selected storage systems and performance objects prior to adding any others. Otherwise,
the storage systems and performance objects you initially added will reappear for selection,
especially if they are the same object type.

Threshold settings must be configured separately for the storage system or performance object
that you add. For more information on configuring threshold monitoring settings, see

“Adding

performance objects for monitoring” (page 55)

.

Prerequisites

Make note of the IP address (IPv4 or IPv6) or fully qualified domain name of the HP P6000
Performance Data Collector instance that you want to add.

Ensure that the HP P6000 Performance Advisor license key for the storage system that you
want to add is installed in HP P6000 Command View.

Ensure that both the controllers in the storage system are accessible from the HP P6000
Command View instance that is managing the storage system.
