HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor Software v6.0 User Guide

NOTE: The LDEVs, journal groups, or the E-LUNs are referred as consumers on the Dashboard

screen.

By default, the consumers are sorted in a descending order and displayed in the Component

Information section. The consumers with quicker average read and write response time or a high

average MP blade utilization are displayed first, followed by those with higher response time and

low average utilization values.

You can specify the number of consumers that must be displayed in the Component Information

section of the Dashboard screen. The maximum acceptable number is 50 and the minimum

acceptable number is 0. By default, 20 consumers are displayed at a time in the Component

Information section when you click a port, RAID group, or an MP blade in the Statistics section. If

there are less than 20 consumers, all of them are displayed in the Component Information section.

To specify the consumer settings:

1. Go to the Component Settings section on the Threshold Setting screen.

2. From the Maximum Components list, select the maximum number of consumers you want to

view in the Component Information section of the Dashboard screen.

3. Select Ascending or Descending as the Sort by Average Response Time.

4. Click Save to update the consumer settings.

The maximum X busiest consumers appear in the Component Information section on the Dashboard

screen. For more information, see “Dashboard busiest consumers” (page 110).
