The login subcommand must execute before the shortrange subcommand executes.
Operands
The value on the left of the colon (:) specifies the starting time of the period. The value on the right of the
colon specifies the ending time of the period. Specify the term within “Short Range From XXX To
XXX” which is output by the show subcommand.
If no value is specified on the left of the colon, the starting time for collecting monitoring data is assumed.
If no value is specified on the right of the colon, the ending time for collecting monitoring data is assumed.
The starting and ending times for collecting monitoring data appear in the Monitoring Term area in the
Auto LUN XP pane (see Figure 27).
Figure 27 Starting and ending times for collecting monitoring data
yyyyMMddhhmm
yyyyMMdd indicates the year, month, and day. hhmm indicates the hour and minute.
If yyyyMMddhhmm is omitted on the left of the colon, the starting time for collecting monitoring data is
assumed. If yyyyMMddhhmm is omitted on the right of the colon, the ending time for collecting
monitoring data is assumed.
+hhmm
Adds time (hhmm) to yyyyMMddhhmm if yyyyMMddhhmm is specified. For example,
200401230000+0130 indicates Jan. 23, 2004, 01:30.
Adds time to the starting time for collecting monitoring data if yyyyMMddhhmm is omitted.
-hhmm
Subtracts time (hhmm) from yyyyMMddhhmm if yyyyMMddhhmm is specified. For example,
200401230000-0130 indicates Jan. 22, 2004, 22:30.
Subtracts time from the ending time for collecting monitoring data, if yyyyMMddhhmm is omitted.
NOTE: If the last two digits of the time on the left or right of the colon (:) are not a multiple of the
sampling interval, the time automatically changes so the last two digits are a multiple of the sampling
interval. If this change occurs to the time on the left of the colon, the time is smaller than the original time.
If this change occurs to the time on the right of the colon, the time is larger than the original time. The
following are examples:
• If the time on the left is 10:15, the time on the right is 20:30, and the sampling interval is 10 minutes:
The time on the left changes to 10:10 because the last two digits of the time are not a multiple of 10
minutes. The time on the right remains unchanged because the last two digits of the time are a multiple
of 10 minutes.
• If the time on the left is 10:15, the time on the right is 20:30, and the sampling interval is 7 minutes:
The time on the left changes to 10:14 because the last two digits of the time are not a multiple of 7
minutes. The time on the right changes to 20:35 because of the same reason.
