Selecting an HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage for Adaptive Optimization
To begin using Adaptive Optimization on an HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage array, you must either
add it configured to include collection of data (region-level data) for sampling purposes (see
“Adding Storage Systems” (page 46)) or change the configuration to include the data. To change
the configuration, click the InServ Systems tab in the System Reporter Policies window.
Figure 59 Setting Up the Storage System for Adaptive Optimization
From this menu, you must ensure that the system that you want to optimize is configured and that
the Sample Adaptive Optimization Data parameter for the desired system has been checked and
is set to 1. In addition, the Skip LD Performance Data should not be set since Adaptive Optimization
also looks at LD performance data.
NOTE: In order to use Adaptive Optimization to perform system optimization, you need to have
Edit level privileges on the arrays where this capability is implemented.

1. Point your browser at the Web server where Apache HTTP Server and the HP 3PAR System
