HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor Software v5.5 User Guide (T1789-96337, Februrary 2013)

NOTE: For an XP10000 Disk Array, the MIX boards do not have MP4, 5, and 6 defined. So,
when these metrics are chosen, the utilization is shown as zero.
The Utilization metric is available for the DKAs that are associated with the concatenated RAID
groups. All the associated DKA pairs are displayed individually in the Resource list box on the
Charts screen.
TIP: For CHIPs that are not installed, the MP utilization shows zero.

MP Blades navigation path
IMPORTANT: This section is applicable only for the P9000 disk arrays.
The MP Blades main category comprises the individual MP blades for a P9000 disk array. Each
MP blade is identified by the cluster # and the blade location, and further displays the list of
processors. Following is the component selection path: MP Blades > Individual MP Blade (ID, cluster
#, blade location) > Processors (component type) > Individual processor IDs.
• MP Blades > Individual MP Blade
• Individual MP Blade > Processors (component type) > Individual processor IDs
The number of components associated with an MP blade is displayed beside it. For example:
• MP Blade (2)
• Processors (4)
