RAID Group Utilization Report
The Raid Group Utilization report consists of four charts that display the utilization of the top 32
RAID groups, split into eight each. The RAID group utilization indicates the total utilization of a
RAID group over an entire collection interval.
“RAID Group Utilization — First top 8 RAID groups” (page 370) displays a sample RAID Group
Utilization report that provides the first top eight RAID groups for a P9500 Disk Array.
Figure 51 RAID Group Utilization — First top 8 RAID groups
The report displays the utilization graphs for only those RAID groups that have managed the
backend transfers. When a RAID group is associated with a ThP pool, the extent of RAID group
utilization due to I/Os occurring on a ThP pool is considered.
Cache utilization report
The cache utilization reports allow you to view in a chart format, the utilization of cache in the
XP/XP7 disk array, the amount of data in the cache that is waiting to be written to a disk, read
hits as a percentage of total read operations, the total number of transfers per second, the total
number of transfers over 24-hour, cache side file utilization for the continuous access asynchronous
activity.
A sample of each report is given below:
