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 %.
