Using the Export Tool

Hitachi Universal Storage Platform V/VM Hitachi Performance Manager User’s Guide

This script specifies that you use the user ID expusr and the password

passwd to log into the SVP.
The

subcommand logs the specified user into the SVP. You must

include the

subcommand in your command file. For detailed

information about the

subcommand, see login Subcommand.

Caution: When you write the

subcommand in your command file,

you must specify a user ID that should be used exclusively for running the
Export Tool. See Requirements for Using the Export Tool for reference.

The

show

subcommand checks the SVP to find the period of monitoring

data stored in the SVP and the data collection interval (that is called
"gathering interval" in Performance Monitor), and then outputs them to the
standard output (for example, the command prompt) and the log file.
Performance Monitor collects statistics by the two types of storing periods:
in short range and in long range. The

show

subcommand displays the

storing periods and the gathering intervals for these two types of
monitoring data.
The following is an example of information that the

show

subcommand

outputs:

Short Range From: 2006/10/01 01:00 - To: 2006/10/01 15:00 Interval: 1min.
Long Range From: 2006/09/01 00:00 - To: 2006/10/01 15:00 Interval: 15min.

Short Range

indicates the storing period and gathering interval of the

monitoring data stored in short range.

Long Range

indicates those of the

monitoring data stored in long range. In the above example, the
monitoring data in short range is stored every 1 minute in the term of

1:00-15:00 on Oct. 1, 2006. Also, the monitoring data in long range is
stored every 15 minutes in the term of Sep. 1, 2006, 0:00 through Oct. 1,
2006, 15:00. When you run the Export Tool, you can export monitoring

data within these periods into files.
All the monitoring items are stored in short range, but a part of monitoring

items is stored in both the short range and long range. For details on
monitoring items that can be stored in long range, see long-range

Subcommand.
The use of the

show

subcommand is not mandatory, but it is recommended

that you include the

show

subcommand in your command file. If an error

occurs when you run the Export Tool, you might be able to find the error
cause by checking the log file for information issued by the

show

subcommand. For detailed information about the show subcommand, see
show Subcommand.
