Network Storage Enclosure Inventory

Enclosure Configuration—Displays the type or model, name, and serial number of the network
storage enclosure.

Controllers—Displays the name and model of the enclosure and whether it is operating with
redundant controllers.

If a redundant controller is configured, then both standby and active controllers are listed.

If redundancy is not configured, only active controllers are listed.

Detected Servers—Displays a list of servers sharing the enclosure.

Host buses

The following information is provided for host buses.

Host Buses Status

Host Bus MBytes/Sec—The average number of megabytes transferred over the host buses
each second

Host Buses Inventory

Bus Configuration—Displays a summary of each PCI or PCI-X bus on the server with the
PCI/PCI-X slots and the I/O expansion boards installed in each slot

Operating speed—Displays the operating speed

PCI bus

The following information is provided for a PCI bus.

PCI Bus Status

MBytes/Sec—The average number of megabytes transferred on the selected PCI bus each
second.

PCI Utilization %—The PCI utilization for the selected PCI bus. A 32-bit PCI and 64-bit PCI
can operate simultaneously on the same PCI bus. The utilization is primarily dependent on the
MBytes/Sec rate and the negotiated PCI bus protocol:

32-bit PCI—Operates at 33 MHz, resulting in a maximum throughput of 132 MB/s

64-bit PCI—Operates at 33 MHz, resulting in a maximum throughput of 264 MB/s

64-bit/50-MHz PCI-X—Provides a maximum throughput of 400 MB/s

64-bit/66-MHz PCI or PCI-X—Provides a maximum throughput of 528 MB/s

64-bit/100-MHz PCI-X—Provides a maximum throughput of 800 MB/s

64-bit/133-MHz PCI-X—Provides a maximum throughput of 1064 MB/s

PCI Express X1—Provides a maximum throughput of 500 MB/s

PCI Express X2—Provides a maximum throughput of 1000 MB/s

PCI Express X4—Provides a maximum throughput of 2 GB/s

PCI Express X8—Provides a maximum throughput of 4 GB/s

PCI Express X12—Provides a maximum throughput of 6 GB/s

PCI Express X16—Provides a maximum throughput of 8 GB/s

PCI bus performance is evaluated using the Bus Utilization %.
