HP P6000 - Manual (Page 73)

HP P6000 Performance Data Collector prompts you for a password.
Note that:
•
This command accepts the HP P6000 Command View access information provided as is. It
does not validate the information by connecting to the specified HP P6000 Command View.
To verify whether the provided information can be used to communicate with the specified HP
P6000 Command View, another command is provided.
•
This command results in the overwriting of any previously configured HP P6000 Command
View access information.
•
The HP P6000 Performance Data Collector data collection service does not use the credentials
passed through this command immediately. A service restart is required for the new credentials
to be used for state data collection. After service restart, the newly configured credentials are
used. The same access credentials are used by the server until it is changed by the user,
followed by a service restart. HP P6000 Performance Data Collector data collection service
restart does not cause loss of the configured HP P6000 Command View access information.
Displaying HP P6000 Command View access credentials
The EVAperf verifycvconfig command verifies whether HP P6000 Command View is
accessible using the specified access credentials. The following is a sample output:
Host Port Username Accessible
localhost 2374 adm No
Configuration file for performance and state data logging
The logging.conf file is located in the HP P6000 Performance Data Collector install directory.
This file contains the parameters that control the logging. The format of the file is as follows:
#”state_logging” parameter controls the tracking and logging of state changes
#if this is set to yes, the performance data logging also needs to be enabled
state_logging no
#perf_logging parameter controls the logging of performance metrics
perf_logging no
#Frequency at which state data needs to be polled and logged (time is in
minutes)
state_interval 60
#Frequency at which performance data needs to be polled and logged (time is
in seconds)
perf_interval 300
#Directory under which state and performance data will be logged (use /
instead of \ to separate directories)
#for example c:/all_logs/eva_logs
#default log directory is performance_history under the current directory
root /performance_history
#Max size of a log file in MB
filesize 50
#Number of days for which the logs need to be retained
numdays 3
The logging parameters are as follows:
•
Minimum value for perf polling interval is 30 seconds and maximum is 24 hours.
•
Minimum value for state polling interval is 30 minutes and maximum is 24 hours.
