HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor Software v6.0 Command-line User Interface Reference Guide

IMPORTANT:
• If you export data for a P9000 disk array, you can also view the average utilization percentage
of an MP blade and the LDEV that is currently assigned to the MP blade. The average
percentage of utilization is calculated as the utilization of all the individual processors in the
MP blade. The file also includes the following details:
◦ The MP blade IDs, the cluster # and the blade locations for the MP blades.
◦ The processors on an MP blade and their utilization percentage for the selected duration.
◦ The processing types and the respective MP busy time.
The MP busy time indicates the time taken by an MP blade to process the request it
receives from the associated processing type.
• The export DB file for LDEV displays an additional Current MP column. This column displays
the current MP blade for each LDEV record. The MP blade ID includes the cluster # and the
blade location for the MP blade.
• P9000 Performance Advisor supports multiple data collection. For the exportdb command
to be successful, ensure that the RAID Groups are part of a single schedule only.
