•
Days to keep Daily Data -- Specifies the number of days to retain daily data.
•
Days to keep Adaptive Optimization Data -- Specifies the number of days to retain
Adaptive Optimization data.
10. Click Submit Query.
NOTE:
Since performance data for LDs can increase the database size substantially you
should check the Skip LD Performance data box unless you intend to configure Adaptive
Optimization for the system.
You can change the value of the Use SSL and Skip LD Performance data parameters or even
disable sampling for a storage server entirely as described in section
11. Repeat step 5 to add additional storage servers and then click Return to Policies.
NOTE:
The maximum CPG size supported when region data sampling is enabled for Adaptive
Optimization is 250 TB. The maximum Adaptive Optimization configuration size is limited to
125 TB.
Setting File Permissions (Optional)
Set file permissions as desired for the password and configuration files created during installation.
See
“About File Permissions” (page 125)
for additional information.
Verifying Installation
Perform the following steps to verify that the System Reporter tools were installed correctly and that
systems are being sampled successfully:
1.
Wait several minutes after adding the last storage server (for SQLite configurations).
2.
Look at the sampleloop.log file. On WIndows this is in the log subdirectory in the directory
where System Reporter is installed (C:\Program Files\3par\System Reporter\log\
sampleloop.log)
. On Linux, open /var/log/sampleloop.log.
3.
At the bottom of the log file, for each system to be sampled, look for an entry similar to the
following:
2009-04-29 10:16:15: Adding system inserv1 into system table2009-04-29 10:16:21:
Sample inserted (1 systems) (time=2009-04-29 10:14:53) (hires, space=0) (9 secs)
You can now return to the HP 3PAR System Reporter window and execute database queries
using a Web browser.
NOTE:
For performance type reports, at first you may only be able to see high resolution
performance information. For space type reports, it may take more than 30 minutes before
you can sample high resolution data. Daily and hourly data samples may take even longer.
Installing the Excel Client (Optional)
If you plan to use the HP 3PAR System Reporter Excel client to access the HP 3PAR System Reporter
database, you must install the Excel client on a local machine as described in this section.
NOTE:
Use of the HP 3PAR System Reporter Excel client requires that you have Microsoft Excel
2003 or 2007 software already installed on your local machine. For additional details, see
.
