HP StorageWorks P9000 Performance Advisor Software v5.3 User and Troubleshooting Guide (T1789-96322, August 2011)

Viewing performance or usage data for components
You can view the performance and usage data of components at the application, host, and WWN
level, where data is filtered and displayed accordingly. The data displayed is based on whether your
application is associated with components that belong to the XP disk arrays or the P9000 disk arrays:
• If your application is associated with components that belong to the XP disk arrays, view the per-
formance data of LDEVs, ports, CLPRs, and the RAID groups.
• If your application is associated with components that belong to the P9000 disk arrays, view the
performance data of LDEVs, ports, CLPRs, and the RAID groups. In addition, view the average
utilization of the MP blades that are processing requests for LDEVs associated with the application.
The following are the different levels and a brief description of the data that is displayed at each
level:
DescriptionViewing data
The data is retrieved through all the hosts and the WWNs that are connected to
your application and the XP disk arrays.
Application level
The data is retrieved through the specific WWNs. It is valid if your host uses
multiple WWNs to connect to an XP or a P9000 disk array.
Host level
The data is retrieved through the specific WWN. Displays performance data of
the LDEVs, ports, CLPRs, and the RAID groups, and also the average utilization
data for the MP blades (only for the P9000 disk arrays).
WWN level
To view the performance data or the utilization usage data of components:
1. Click the + sign for an XP or a P9000 disk array in the component selection tree under
Troubleshooting.
The list expands to display the configured applications. The applications displays the associated
hosts and each host display the associated WWNs. You can also search for an application that
is using the components in an XP or a P9000 disk array. For more information, see “Searching
for applications associated with components” on page 355.
