HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor Software v6.0 User Guide

IMPORTANT:
• The MIX CHIP displays only eight ports and four MPs though there are eight MPs on that
board. The remaining four behave as ACP MPs.
• If performance data is collected separately for the DKC, ports, and the RAID groups, through
two different schedules, all the metrics display the latest data as received by the management
station, from either of the schedules. For more information about schedules, see “Data Collection
Configuration” (page 43).
