If you split the external RAID groups, RAID groups, ThP pools, and the snapshots into two
schedules, you cannot see the Total I/O, Total MB/s, and the Total Tracks fields in the LDEV
table.
•
If you split the journal LDEVs, external RAID groups, RAID groups, ThP pools, and the snapshots
into two schedules, and in charts, you select All from the LDEV drop-down box, the combined
data points from both the schedules are plotted on the chart. In addition, repeated time stamps
are displayed if the collection frequency for both the schedules is the same. As a result, incorrect
values are plotted on the graph.
For more information about charts, see

If you are collecting the performance data for the first time, it takes longer than usual for HP
XP7 Performance Advisor to collect the data. The subsequent performance data collection is
as per the time specified in the Frequency section.
•
If
you have performed a one-time configuration data collection and later the XP/XP7 disk
array
configuration is modified, HP recommends that you perform a fresh configuration data
collection,
so that the performance data collected is for the latest configuration.
Initially,
when performance data collection is not yet configured for the XP and the XP7 disk
arrays,
the following details are displayed in the Performance Collection table, under the
Performance
Collection tab:
