HP StorageWorks Performance Control XP user guide (T1605-96007, October 2007)

14 Performance Control XP
(wwn01) in the production server is connected to four array ports (1A, 1C, 1A, and 2C). The host bus
adapters (wwn02 and wwn03) in the development server are connected to the same four ports.

In this example, setting up Performance Control XP requires the following major steps:
1. Find WWNs of host bus adapters. Before using Performance Control XP, find the Worldwide Name
(WWN) of each host bus adapter in the host servers. WWNs are 16-digit hexadecimal numbers
identifying host bus adapters. For detailed information about finding WWNs, see the
HP StorageWorks LUN Configuration and Security Manager XP user guide for the specific array.
2. Monitor all traffic between host bus adapters and ports. You must monitor all host bus adapters
connected to ports in the array. In the WWN tab of the Performance Control pane, place the host bus
adapters connected to each port below the Monitor icons.
In network B, the four ports are connected to three host bus adapters (wwn01, wwn02, and wwn03).
Place the host bus adapter for wwn01, wwn02, and wwn03 below the Monitor icons for the four ports
(shown in Figure 5).

connections” on page 23.
