• No. of LDEVs, No. of Ext. Vols, No. of Cont. Access Jnl
Groups: The number of consumers for the MP blade, which
can be LDEVs, external volumes, and the continuous access
journal groups. The total of the above-mentioned constitutes
the total number of consumers for the selected MP blade.
Displays the following details:Processing Distribution <MP_blade_ID> table
• Processing Type: The list of processing types.
• Avg. Util%: The average MP blade utilization by each
processing type.
The average utilization is calculated as the utilization of all
the individual processors in the MP blade.
For more information on the processing types, see “Processing
types” (page 273).
Displays the following details about the top 20 consumers for
the selected MP blade:
Top Components <MP_blade_ID> table
• Component ID: The ID of the consumer that is assigned to
the MP blade.
• Component Type: The type of consumer (LDEV, journal
volume, E-LUN).
• Processing Type: The processing type that is utilizing the
selected MP blade to process consumer requests.

associated processing type.
In addition, the following graphs are displayed in the Chart Work Area. By default, the data
displayed is for the last one hour:
• A graph that displays the average utilization of the selected MP blade.
• A stacked area graph that displays the average utilization of the selected MP blade by each
processing type. For more information on how to read the stacked area graph, see “Viewing
MP blade utilization by processing types” (page 273).
• A column graph that displays the average utilization of the selected MP blade by each
associated consumer. For more information on how to read the column graph, see “Viewing
top 20 consumers of an MP blade” (page 272).
