IMPORTANT:
•
The port type, such as Fibre, Ficon, Escon, or FCoE (applicable only for P9000 disk arrays) is also
displayed beside the port ID.
•
Since, the CHIP/CHA and the ACP/DKA MPs are moved to the MP blades in the P9000 disk arrays,
their MP utilization metrics are not applicable for the P9000 disk arrays. For more information,
see “
Viewing MP blade utilization for P9000 disk arrays
•
The following port level metrics are defined for the FICON CHAs in XP and P9000 disk arrays:
• Maximum Port I/O
• Minimum Port I/O
• Average Port I/O
• Maximum Port MB/s
• Minimum Port MB/s
• Average Port MB/s
So, the CHIP/CHA summary for a FICON CHA does not display zero values for the above men-
tioned port metrics.
Viewing summary of an individual CHIP/CHA
Click an individual CHIP/CHA in either the CHA summary table or the CHIP/CHA summary table to
