IDE controller
The following information is provided for an IDE controller.
IDE Controller Status
•
Transfers/Sec—Number of requests between the server and this IDE controller each second
•
MBytes/Sec—Sum of all megabytes transferred (read and written) between the server and
this IDE controller each second
•
Millisec/Transfer—Average time for each request to complete
•
Queue Length—Average number of concurrent requests between the server and this IDE
controller, including transfers currently being serviced and transfers waiting for service,
regardless of where the request is waiting (disk or controller)
IDE controller status is determined by the performance status of the ATA disks attached to the
controller and the IDE channels connecting the ATA disks to the controller.
IDE Controller Inventory
•
Controller Configuration
Controller identification, including controller model and PCI slot (if applicable) ◦
◦ Number of disk arrays on the controller (if applicable)
◦ Number of ATA disks attached to the controller
•
Windows/Linux Physical Disks—Each Microsoft Windows and Linux physical disk defined on
this IDE controller and whether the physical disk is defined on a single ATA disk or an array
of ATA disks
ATA disk
The following information is provided for an ATA disk.
ATA Disk Status
•
Reads/Sec—Number of reads from this ATA disk each second
•
Writes/Sec—Number of writes to this ATA disk each second
•
Read MBytes/Sec—Average number of megabytes read from the ATA disk each second
•
Write MBytes/Sec—Average number of megabytes written to the ATA disk each second
•
Millisec/Read—Average time for each read to complete
•
Millisec/Write—Average time for each write to complete
•
Queue Length—Average number of concurrent requests between the server and this ATA disk
(Queue Length is the primary indicator of ATA disk performance, whether the disk is part of
an array)
ATA Disk Inventory
•
Disk Information—Description of the drive, including the hard drive model number
•
Configuration Information
