Syntax

apply

set

Description

The set subcommand starts or ends monitoring the storage system (i.e., starts or ends collecting
performance statistics). The set subcommand also specifies the gathering interval (interval of
collecting statistics) in short range monitoring.
If you want to use the set subcommand, you must use the login subcommand (see

“login”

(page 66)

to log on to SVP. Ensure that the set subcommand executes immediately before the

Export Tool finishes.
Executing the set subcommand generates an error in the following conditions:

Some other user is being logged onto SVP in Modify mode.

Maintenance operations are being performed at SVP.

If an error occurs, do the following:

Ensure that all the users who are logged onto SVP are not in Modify mode. If any user is
logged on in Modify mode, ask the user to switch to View mode.

Wait until maintenance operations finish at SVP, so that the set subcommand can execute.

NOTE:

Following are notes of the set command.

Batch files can include script that should execute when an error occurs. For information
about writing such a script in your batch file, see Notes in

“Using the Export Tool ”

(page 60)

.

When the set subcommand starts or ends the monitoring or changes the gathering interval
after the Monitor Performance window is started, the contents displayed in the Monitor
Performance window does not change automatically in conjunction with the set
subcommand operation. To display the current monitoring status in the Monitor
Performance window, click File, and then click Refresh on the menu bar of the Remote
Web Console main window.

If you change the specified gathering interval during a monitoring, the previously gathered
monitoring data will be deleted.
