Fibre Channel host bus adapter
The following information is provided for a Fibre Channel HBA.
Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter Status
• Transfers/Sec—Average number of transfers on the selected HBA each second
• MBytes/Sec—Average number of megabytes transferred on the selected HBA each second
• Millisec/Transfer—Average time to complete a data transfer between the server and the
storage attached to the selected HBA
• Queue Length—Average number of concurrent requests between the server and this HBA,
including transfers currently being serviced and transfers waiting for service, regardless of
where the request is waiting
• Port Utilization %—Average utilization of the Fibre Channel port on this adapter.
Performance is determined by comparing the MBytes/Sec with the theoretical throughput (1 or 2
GB/s) of the HBA.
