Assigning GUIDs for command devices on a Windows host
To overcome device renaming and device remapping issues during data collection, HP recommends
that you use the Windows GUID (\\?\Volume{GUID}) to perform configuration and performance
data collection instead of using the device file names.
Complete the following steps to use the GUID:
1. Log in to the XP Performance Advisor host agent and stop the host agent.
For example, <install directory>:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\xppa\
hostagent\sbin> xppa stop
Following will be command, if you have installed the host agent in a different location, <In-
stall_directory>:\hostagent\xppa stop
You can also click Start > Run, type services.msc, and press Enter. In the Services dialog
box, right-click HP XP Performance Advisor Hostagent and select Stop from the drop down list.
You can also stop the HP XP Performance Advisor Realtime Server by following the above men-
tioned steps.
