After upgrading to HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor v6.0 , when you start the configuration data collection:
Starting performance data collection in case of a disk failure
The performance data collection might stop on all the XP and the P9000 disk arrays connected to
a host, if the command device used belongs to an array group where a disk failure occurred. To
restart performance data collection:
1. Under the Host Information tab, select the host (on which performance data collection has
stopped) and click Request Info. The status for the selected host changes to Received after the
information is collected from the host. For more information, see “Requesting host agent
updates” (page 46).
2. Under the Performance Collection tab, delete and recreate the performance schedules for the
selected host. The schedule is enabled automatically and the performance data collection
begins. The previous collection is still retained.
Viewing performance data collection schedules
After creating a schedule, click the View link under Components or the View button. The list of
selected components, respective data collection frequencies, and the command device chosen for
data collection are displayed. In addition, the port type, such as Fibre or FCoE (applicable only
for P9000 disk arrays) is also displayed for a port.
