Response Time: This column indicates the time for replying from the port

or host bus adapter when I/O accesses are made from the host to them.
The unit is milliseconds. The average response time in the period specified

at Monitoring Term is displayed.
This column displays a hyphen (-) if the I/O rate is 0 (zero).

Attribute: Indicates the priority of each port. Prio. indicates a prioritized

port. Non-Prio. indicates a non-prioritized port.

Note: In the list of Port-LUN tab, two types of aliases appear for host bus
adapters: SPM name and nickname. If you select a port icon in the tree,
SPM names defined by Server Priority Manager appear. If you select a host

group icon in the tree, nicknames defined by LUN Manager appear. We
recommend that you specify the same name for an SPM name and a
nickname for convenience of host bus adapter management.

Initiator/External: Indicates the port attribute. Initiator indicates an

initiator port. External indicates an external port. Both of the ports are not
controlled by Server Priority Manager.
