HP XP Performance Advisor Software - Manual (Page 58)

1. Click Monitoring+Array View in the left pane.
The Array View screen appears.
2. Click
the Configuration Collection tab. The Configuration Collection table displays the list
of
command device records for all the XP and the XP7 disk arrays that are monitored by
HP
XP7 Performance Advisor.
3. Select
the command device record corresponding to the XP/XP7 disk array for which
you want to delete the configuration data schedule.
4. Click Delete Schedule.
When a configuration data collection schedule is deleted, HP XP7 Performance Advisor stops the
collection from the subsequent scheduled collection cycle and then deletes the schedule. However,
the current collection stops only after the latest configuration data is collected or when the scheduler
time resets to 60 minutes. For example, if you scheduled a configuration data collection for two
hours at 10:00 AM and stopped the schedule at 10:30 AM, HP XP7 Performance Advisor still
continues with the configuration collection that was initiated at 10:00 AM. However, after the
current collection completes or the scheduler time resets to 60 minutes, HP XP7 Performance Advisor
does not initiate a new configuration data collection.
Collecting performance data
After
completing the configuration data collection for the XP and the XP7 disk arrays,
schedule
the performance data collection for the associated components, which belong to the
following
component types:
•
DKC
•
Ports
•
RAID Groups
•
Ext RAID Groups
•
THP pools
•
Snapshot pools
•
Cont. Access Journals
You
can create two performance data collection schedules for an XP or an XP7 disk array, as it
enables
you to frequently monitor the respective components. The components that are not
selected
as part of the first schedule are automatically added to the second schedule. You can set
different
collection frequencies to collect data for the DKC, ports, and the RAID groups. You can
also
enable the schedules for automatic updates. The collection frequency set for a RAID group in
a
schedule is applicable for any component of the continuous access journal, snapshot, ThP, and
the
external RAID group types. It is applicable only if they are selected for performance data
collection.
The following are important notes on the performance data collection:
•
The performance data collection does not start when the configuration data collection is in
progress. It starts automatically when the configuration data collection completes. If you set
the frequency of the configuration data collection schedule as one hour, then after every hour,
the performance data collection stops and restarts only when the configuration data collection
completes. On successful completion, the Event Log screen displays records for the generated
events. In case of performance data collection failure, the Event Log screen displays the failure
messages.
