Editing performance data collection schedules

You can add or remove components from an existing performance data collection schedule, and

edit the frequency of data collection. When you edit a performance data collection schedule, you

might notice missing data points for components in the subsequent collection cycle before HP XP

P9000 Performance Advisor starts collecting data for the new set of components and frequency.

To edit a performance data collection schedule:

1. Click Monitoring+Array View in the left pane.

The Array View screen appears.

2. Click the Performance Collection tab and select the XP or the P9000 disk array record for

which you want to modify the associated performance data collection schedule.

3. Click Edit. The Edit button is enabled only when you select an XP or a P9000 disk array record

under the Performance Collection tab.

The schedule details appear and the selected components are highlighted for your reference

in the respective component type lists.

4. Modify the schedule settings as required. For more information, see “Creating or viewing a

performance data collection schedule” (page 61).

5. Click Save to commit the changes.

The updated frequency is displayed under Frequency. In the subsequent data collection cycle,

HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor collects data for the new set of components as per the

new frequency.
