Enables you to specify the volume of data to be displayed in the
output screen for ports, LDEVs, RAID groups, and host groups.
In case of Sync/Async metrics, you can set the number of
PVOL/SVOLs, RAID Groups, CLPRs and Replication Ports. In case
of CA Journals, you can also set the number of Journal Volumes
and their corresponding RAID groups.
For example, by default the Output screen displays 10 most active
ports, 10 most active LDEVs, 10 most active RAID groups, and 10
most active host groups.
Real-Time Monit-
or Size
5 - 300 seconds10 seconds
Enables you to specify the frequency at which the screen updates/
refreshes the performance collection data obtained from a disk
array.
NOTE:
By default, the collection update interval is 10 seconds in the
Interactive and CLI modes, where the screen is refreshed every
10 seconds. You can change this collection update interval
time from 5 to 300 seconds in the Interactive mode. The new
collection update interval is automatically used in the CLI mode
also.
For example, if the user changes the collection update interval
time to 5 seconds in the Interactive mode and then runs the
P9000Watch in the CLI mode, the screen is refreshed every
5 seconds.
Collection Up-
date Interval
5 - 300 seconds10 seconds
Enables you to specify the frequency at which the performance
data of a disk array should be archived in the .csv file.
NOTE:
By default, the archival frequency is 10 seconds in the
Interactive and CLI modes, where the data is archived every
10 seconds. You can specify a minimum of 5 seconds or a
maximum of 300 seconds as the archival frequency. The new
archival frequency is automatically used in the CLI mode also,
if –a option is not specified.
For example, if you change the archival frequency to 5
seconds in the Interactive mode and then run the P9000Watch
in the CLI mode without specifying –a option, the performance
data is archived in the .csv file every 5 seconds.
