Click the link provided for the application, host group, or WWN in the Search Results dialog
box.

If your application is associated with a host using its host group, N/A is displayed under the
WWN column. Similarly, if your application is associated with a host using its WWN, N/A
is displayed under the Host Group column. The appropriate node is automatically highlighted
in the component selection tree. In the above image, the component that you searched is port,
CL2B. The Search Results dialog box displays the application and host group that are
associated with CL2B. N/A is displayed under the WWN column, as the association is not
configured through the host WWN. If you click the application or the host group link in the
Search Results dialog box, the respective nodes are highlighted in the component selection
tree. In addition, the corresponding data at the application or host group level is displayed
in the Host Based screen, and the record for CL2B is also highlighted in the Port table.

Viewing performance or usage data for components

You can view the performance and usage data of components at the application, host, and WWN
level, where data is filtered and displayed accordingly. The data displayed is based on whether
your application is associated with components that belong to the XP disk arrays or the P9000
disk arrays:

If your application is associated with components that belong to the XP disk arrays, view the
performance data of LDEVs, ports, CLPRs, and the RAID groups.

If your application is associated with components that belong to the P9000 disk arrays, view
the performance data of LDEVs, ports, CLPRs, and the RAID groups. In addition, view the
average utilization of the MP blades that are processing requests for LDEVs associated with
the application.

The following are the different levels and a brief description of the data that is displayed at each
level:

Description

Viewing data

The data is retrieved through all the hosts and the WWNs
that are connected to your application and the XP disk
arrays.

Application level

The data is retrieved through the specific host groups. It is
valid if your host uses multiple host groups to connect to
an XP or a P9000 disk array.

Host group

The data is retrieved through the specific WWN. Displays
performance data of the LDEVs, ports, CLPRs, and the RAID

WWN level

groups, and also the average utilization data for the MP
blades (only for the P9000 disk arrays).

To view the performance data or the utilization usage data of components:
1.

Click the plus (+) sign for an XP or a P9000 disk array in the component selection tree under
Troubleshooting+Host Based.

The list expands to display the configured applications. The applications displays the associated
host groups or WWNs. You can also search for an application that is using the components
in an XP or a P9000 disk array. For more information, see

“Searching for applications

associated with components” (page 327)
