Custom groups navigation path
The Custom Groups node comprises of individual custom groups that display the associated LDEVs.
Following is the component selection path:
•
Custom Groups > Individual custom group > LDEVs (component type) > Individual LDEVs
The serial numbers of the XP and the P9000 disk arrays to which the LDEVs belong are also
mentioned in brackets beside the LDEV IDs. You can create a custom group that has multiple
LDEVs from different XP and P9000 disk arrays. For more information on creating custom
groups, see
“Creating custom groups” (page 85) .
In the above image, CG_1_CG is one of the custom groups that is selected. The number (5) besides
the LDEVs component type indicates the total number of LDEVs grouped in CG_1_CG. The LDEVs
1:7A, 1:7C, and 1:7B display 30064 and the LDEV 9:67 displays 82502 beside their LDEV IDs.
It implies that these LDEVs are grouped from the XP disk arrays 30064 or 82502 under the
CG_1_CG custom group.
The metrics associated with the resources types and components for the selected custom group are
displayed in the Available Metrics Choose Metric Category list. Select the metrics at the component
type or the individual component levels, or both and view the related performance graphs in the
Chart Work Area. For a description of these metrics, see
“Metric Category, metrics, and
descriptions” (page 391) .
The following table provides the default set of metric categories that are displayed in the Available
Metrics Choose Metric Category list for the XP and the P9000 disk arrays.
