Creating and viewing Export DB CSV files
HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor retrieves performance values related to the DKC, LDEVs, ports,
and the CLPRs for an XP or a P9000 disk array, and provides the data in separate .csv files. You
can also view the performance values of journal pool LDEVs and the utilization values for Ext-LUNs
and RAID groups. If you export data for a P9000 disk array, you can also view the average
utilization percentage of an MP blade and the LDEV that is currently assigned to the MP blade.
You can export data from the .csv files to a data visualization program, such as Microsoft Excel.
For more information about the generated .csv files, see
“Export DB CSV files” (page 149)
.
The .csv files are created when you export data for a specified duration or schedule it as a daily,
weekly, or monthly activity. The .csv files are stored in the following location on the management
station: \HPSS\pa\tomcat\webapps\pa\reports.
You can perform the following tasks under the Export DB tab that appears when you click PA and
DB Settings+Database Manager in the left pane.
•
Export performance and utilization data into .csv files under the Export DB/Schedule Export
DB tab. You can save and view the .csv files when required, or schedule the export activities
on a periodic basis.
•
View the .csv files by selecting the corresponding records in the Exported DB Files section,
under the View Exported/Scheduled Exported DB Files tab.
•
Delete the records for the .csv files or the schedules in the Scheduled Export DB tasks section,
under the View Exported/Scheduled Exported DB Files tab.
The Export Database report functionality provided through the HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor
GUI is same as that available from CLUI.
