Measuring traffic between host bus adapters and ports for many-to-many
connections
If a many-to-many connection is established between host bus adapters (HBAs) and ports, you must
measure traffic between each HBA and the port to which the HBA is connected.
1. Start Performance Control XP (”Starting Performance Control XP” on page 19). The Performance Control
pane appears.
2. Click WWN.
3. Select All from the list at the top right corner of the pane.
4. In the upper-left tree view, double-click a port.
5. Double-click Non-Monitor below the specified port. Host adapters that are not being monitored are
displayed under Non-Monitor.
6. Right-click Monitor, and select Add WWN. The Add WWN dialog box where you can add a
prioritized or non-prioritized WWN to the Monitor branch appears.
Figure 12 Add WWN dialog box
7. Specify the WWN and PFC name (16-character maximum), and click OK. The specified WWN
appears below Monitor.
NOTE: To simplify managing HBAs, use the same name for the PFC name and HBA nickname.
NOTE: Performance Control XP does not monitor HBAs below Non-Monitor. You cannot set upper
limits and thresholds to HBAs that are not monitored. To move an HBA (WWN) from Monitor to
Non-Monitor, select an HBA from below Monitor, right-click Monitor, and select Delete WWN. You
can monitor up to 32 HBAs (WWNs) for each port.
8. Click Monitor. The table on the right lists HBAs that are displayed below Monitor.
9. Right-click a prioritized WWN, and select Non-Prio. ->> Prioritized. If there is more than one
high-priority port, repeat this operation.
Prio. appears in the Attribute column.
10. Right-click a non-prioritized WWN, and select Prio. ->> Non-Prio. If there is more than one
non-prioritized WWN, repeat this operation.
Non-Prio. appears in the Attribute column.
11. Repeat step 4 through step 10 for all ports except the one selected in step 4.
12. Click Apply in the Performance Control pane. Settings on the pane are applied to the array.
13. For instructions on measuring traffic (for example, I/O and transfer rates), see the HP StorageWorks
Auto LUN XP user guide for the specific array.
