HP 3PAR System Reporter 3.1 MU1 Software
User's Guide
Abstract
This guide provides information required to install and use HP 3PAR System Reporter Software to monitor performance, create
charge back reports, and plan storage resources for HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage systems, and is intended for system and
storage administrators who monitor and direct system configurations and resource allocation for HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage
systems.
For HP 3PAR OS 3.1.1 or OS 2.3.1, an optionally licensed component called Adaptive Optimization is also included with
System Reporter that can be used to monitor and automatically optimize utilization of storage resources. If you do not have a
licence for Adaptive Optimization, the monitoring and system reporting features are still accessible but the optimization
capabilities are inactivated.
For HP 3PAR OS 3.1.2 and later, Adaptive Optimization is performed by the HP 3PAR OS. Licensing requirements are the
same whether Adaptive Optimization is implemented on the node (as in HP 3PAR OS 3.1.2) or in System Reporter 3.1 MU1.
This help system provides information required to install and use HP 3PAR System Reporter Software to monitor performance,
create charge back reports, and plan storage resources for HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage systems, and is intended for system
and storage administrators who monitor and direct system configurations and resource allocation for HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage
systems. An optionally licensed component called Adaptive Optimization is also included with HP 3PAR System Reporter
Software that can be used to monitor and automatically optimize utilization of storage resources. If you do not have a licence
for Adaptive Optimization, the monitoring and system reporting features are still accessible but the optimization capabilities
are inactivated.
