Viewing MP blade usage data
Consider the scenario of a set of MP blades. You want to know which MP blade has relatively less
busy time, so that you can assign LDEVs to that MP blade. HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor
helps you to obtain this data by providing the average utilization, processing types, and the top
20 consumers data for each MP blade. You can view the relative performance of each MP blade
and select the MP blade that is less busy over a period of time.
