Syntax
To show live statistics:
show vdisk-statistics
[vdisks]
To show historical statistics:
show vdisk-statistics
[all]
[count number-of-data-samples]
historical
[time-range "date/time-range"]
vdisk
Parameters
all
Optional. Specifies to show the full set of performance metrics. If this parameter is omitted, the
default set of performance metrics will be shown.
count number-of-data-samples
Optional. Specifies the number of data samples to display, from 1 to 100. Each sample will be shown
as a separate row in the command output. If this parameter is omitted, 100 samples will be shown. If
you specify this parameter, do not specify the time-range parameter.
historical
Optional. Specifies to show historical statistics. If this parameter is omitted, live statistics will be
shown.
[time-range "date/time-range"]
Optional. Specifies the date/time range of historical statistics to show, in the format "start
yyyy-mm-dd hh : mm[AM| PM] end yyyy-mm-dd hh : mm[AM|PM]". If the start date/
time is specified but no end date/time is specified, the current date/time will be used as the end
date/time. The system will return the oldest sample taken after the start time and the latest sample
taken before the end time. If the specified start date/time is earlier than the oldest sample, that
sample will be used as the start date/time. If you specify this parameter, do not specify the count
parameter. If this parameter is omitted, the most recent 100 data samples will be displayed.
vdisk
Specifies the name or serial number of one disk group for which to show historical statistics. A name
that includes a space must be enclosed in double quotes.
vdisks
Optional. Specifies a comma-separated list of the names or serial number of disk groups for which
to show live statistics. A name that includes a space must be enclosed in double quotes. If this
parameter is omitted, statistics will be shown for all disk groups.
Output
Live
Name
The name of the disk group.
Serial Number
The serial number of the disk group.
Bps
The data transfer rate, in bytes per second, calculated over the interval since these statistics were
last requested or reset. This value will be zero if it has not been requested or reset since a controller
restart.
