Network Port Inventory

Port Configuration

Name of the NIC adapter.

Name of the port (on the base board or upgrade module).

Media access control (MAC) address of the NIC port.

IP address of the NIC port.

Maximum speed (in MB/s) of the NIC port.

NIC teaming configuration if the server is configured with NIC teaming.

Storage components

Storage components differ depending on the server environment. Insight Control performance
management is designed to monitor a variety of storage components, including:

Storage enclosures

Fibre Channel HBAs

SCSI arrays and logical and physical disk drives

Smart arrays

Storage Status

Storage Transfers/Sec—Number of PCI bus transfers to and from storage each second.

Storage MBytes/Sec—Average number of megabytes transferred (read and written) on the
storage each second.

Storage Inventory

Windows/Linux Logical Disks—Lists all of the logical disks in the storage subsystem and
identifies their associated drive letter, file system, disk drive size (in MB), and percentage of
space used

Windows/Linux Physical Disks—Lists all of the physical disks in the storage subsystem and
identifies their associated SCSI ID, drive letter, and array controller

Smart Array controller

The following information is provided for a Smart Array controller.

Smart Array Controller Status

Transfers/Sec—Number of requests between the server and this IDE Smart Array controller
each second

MBytes/Sec—Sum of all megabytes transferred (read and written) between the server and
this Smart Array controller each second

Millisec/Transfer—Average time for each request to complete

Queue Length—Average number of concurrent requests between the server and this Smart
Array controller, including transfers currently being serviced and transfers waiting for service,
regardless of where the request is waiting (drive or controller)

Smart Array controller performance is based on the performance of the SCSI disks attached to the
controller and the SCSI buses that attach the drives to the controller.
