Instruction Manual

Smart Array Controller Status
• Transfers/Sec—The number of requests between the server and this IDE Smart Array controller each
second
• MBytes/Sec—The sum of all megabytes transferred (read and written) between the server and this
Smart Array controller each second
• Millisec/Transfer—The average time for each request to complete
• Queue Length—The average number of concurrent requests between the server and this Smart Array
controller, including transfers currently being serviced and transfers waiting for service, regardless of
where the request is waiting (drive or controller)
Smart Array controller performance is based on the performance of the SCSI disks attached to the controller
and the SCSI buses used to attach the drives to the controller.
Smart Array Controller Inventory
• Controller Configuration
The controller identification, including controller model and PCI slot (if applicable)•
• The supported and negotiated PCI protocols (bus speed)
• The controller cache configuration
• Number of hard disks attached to the controller
• Number of SCSI ports currently in use on the controller
• Number of arrays on the controller
• Number of array logical drives defined on the controller
• Windows/Linux Physical Disks—Lists the physical disk drives and identifies each drive SCSI ID, drive
letter, and associated Smart Array controller
SCSI adapter
The following information is provided for a SCSI adapter.
SCSI Adapter Status
• Transfers/Sec—The number of requests between the server and this SCSI adapter each second
• MBytes/Sec—The average number of megabytes transferred (read and written) between the server
and this SCSI adapter each second
• Millisec/Transfer—The average time for each request to complete
• Queue Length—The average number of concurrent requests between the server and this SCSI adapter,
including transfers currently being serviced and transfers waiting for service, regardless of where the
request is waiting (drive or adapter)
SCSI adapter performance is based on the performance of the SCSI disks attached to the adapter and the
SCSI buses used to attach the disks to the adapter.
SCSI Adapter Inventory
• Identifies the supported and negotiated PCI protocol (bus speed) used by the SCSI adapter
• Provides the number of SCSI drives configured on the adapter
• Provides the number of SCSI ports used
• Windows/Linux Physical Disks—Lists the physical disk drives and identifies each drive SCSI ID, drive
letter, and associated SCSI adapter
Drive array
The following information is provided for a drive array.
