HP StorageWorks P9000 Performance Advisor Software v5.4 User Guide (T1789-96328, April 2012)

The serial numbers of the XP and the P9000 disk arrays to which the LDEVs belong are also

mentioned in brackets beside the LDEV IDs. You can create a custom group that has multiple LDEVs

from different XP and P9000 disk arrays. For more information on creating custom groups, see

“Creating custom groups” on page 100.

In the above image, CG_1_CG is one of the custom groups that is selected. The number (5) besides

the LDEVs component type indicates the total number of LDEVs grouped in CG_1_CG. The LDEVs

1:7A, 1:7C, and 1:7B display 30064 and the LDEV 9:67 displays 82502 beside their LDEV IDs. It

implies that these LDEVs are grouped from the XP disk arrays 30064 or 82502 under the CG_1_CG

custom group.

The metrics associated with the resources types and components for the selected custom group are

displayed in the Available Metrics Choose Metric Category list. Select the metrics at the component

type or the individual component levels, or both and view the related performance graphs in the Chart

Work Area. For a description of these metrics, see “Metric Category, metrics, and

descriptions” on page 439.

The following table provides the default set of metric categories that are displayed in the Available

Metrics Choose Metric Category list for the XP and the P9000 disk arrays.
