Description

Performance View screen elements

Displays the I/Os, MB/s, and the
associated port IDs for all those
CHIPs/CHAs that are processing
requests.

The

port type, such as FCoE

(applicable

only for P9500/XP7 disk

arrays)

is also displayed beside the port

ID.

For

an XP7 disk array, the CHAs

are

grouped based on the clusters

to

which they belong.

CHIP Port Activity Ave group box

For more information, see

“Viewing

CHIP/CHA data” (page 185)

.

Displays the CLPR utilization data,
which includes the CLPR usage,
pending writes, and the sidefile usage
data. It provides an advisory based on
the CLPR utilization for the past one
week. For more information, see

“Advisory on CLPR utilization”
(page 185)

.

CLPR Details group box

Displays the overall average sequential
and non-sequential reads, and writes
for an ACP pair. For more information,
see

“Viewing ACP/DKA data”

(page 189)

.

ACP Pair Backend group box

In

addition, the combined backend

transfer

value is displayed (only for

XP24000

and XP7 disk arrays), which

is

the sum of backend transfers

happening

on all the ThP pools served

by

a particular DKA. In a thin

provisioning

environment, the

Combined

BT section in the ACP Pair

Backend

group box displays values

based

on the following:

If a ThP pool is associated with one
DKA, the backend transfers on the
ThP pool are reported as combined
backend transfer for that DKA.

If the ThP pool is served by multiple
DKAs, the backend transfers on the
ThP pool are reported as combined
backend transfers for each of the
DKAs serving that ThP pool. Such
DKAs are also identified by a *.

For example, consider that
ThP_Pool_2 is served by DKA_1 and
DKA_2. If the ThP pool backend
transfer is 50 I/Os, the combined
backend transfer of DKA_1 and
DKA_2 is reported as 50 I/Os each.

If a DKA is serving multiple ThP
pools, the combined backend
transfers of the DKA is reported as
the sum of backend transfers on all
the associated ThP pools.

For example, consider that
ThP_Pool_1 is served by DKA_1 and
