HPE XP7

View Port summary
To view the summary of overall utilization of ports for an XP or an XP7 disk array, from the PA main menu,
navigate to Summary View > Ports. This feature totals the LDEV I/Os, LDEV MB/s, cache fast write, disk
fast write, cache bypass, and backend transfer values for all of the LDEVs on a given port.
IMPORTANT:
When you request a port summary report, the total I/Os displayed may not be equal to the sum of
the I/Os across each of the ports. This can occur if multiple paths to an LDEV exist. The port IO
summary indicates the IO ceiling values across the ports. It does not indicate the absolute or
accurate I/O rates across the ports.
Historical graphs are plotted for the metrics listed in the tabular format. To plot charts for a metric in
Summary View, click on the hyperlink of a metric. The chart work area appears with the historical data
plotted. Right-click on the individual chart to perform the following actions: Real Time, Trend, Forecast,
Save charts as PDF/CSV, Save chart as templates, and email charts.
