XP Performance Control Export Tool

Subcommands in this command file are explained as follows:

svpip 158.214.135.57

Specifies that you are logging into the SVP whose IP address is 158.214.135.57. You must log into

the SVP when using the Export Tool.
The svpip subcommand specifies the SVP’s IP address. You must include the svpip subcommand in

your command file. For detailed information, refer to

The svpip subcommand

” on page 56.

login expusr passwd

Specifies that you use the user ID expusr and the password passwd to log into the SVP.
The login subcommand logs the specified user into the SVP. You must include the login

subcommand in your command file. For detailed information, see ”

The login subcommand

” on

page 57.

CAUTION:

When writing the login subcommand in your command file, you must specify a user

ID that should be used exclusively for running the Export Tool. See

Files to be exported

” on

page 32 for reference.

CAUTION:

Secure files containing user IDs and password to prevent the information from being

compromised and used for access by unauthorized people.

show

Checks the SVP to find the period of monitoring data stored in the SVP and data collection interval

(called the gathering interval in Auto LUN XP), and then outputs them to the standard output (for

example, the command prompt) and log file.
XP Auto LUN collects statistics by the two types of storing periods: in short range and in long range.

The show subcommand displays the storing periods and the gathering intervals for these types of

monitoring data.
The following is an example of information that the show subcommand outputs:

Short Range

indicates the storing period and gathering interval for monitoring data stored in short

range. Long Range indicates monitoring data stored in long range. In this example, monitoring data

in short range is stored every 1 minute in the term of 1:00-15:00 on Oct.1, 2004. Also, monitoring

data in long range is stored every 15 minutes from Sep.1, 2004, 0:00 through Oct.1, 2004,

15:00. When running the Export Tool, you can export monitoring data within these periods into files.
All monitoring items are stored in short range, but part of the monitoring items is stored in the short

range and long range. For details on monitoring items that can be stored in long range, see ”

The

longrange subcommand

” on page 70.

Using the show subcommand is not mandatory, but HP recommends you include the show

subcommand in your command file. If an error occurs when running the Export Tool, you might be

able to find the error cause by checking the log file for information issued by the show subcommand.

For detailed information, see ”

The show subcommand

” on page 57.

group PhyPG Long

and group RemoteCopy

Specifies the type of data you want to export. Specify an operand following group to define the type

of data to be exported. Basically, monitoring data stored in short range is exported, but you can

export monitoring data stored in long range when specifying some of the operands.
The group PhyPG Long subcommand in

Figure 2

specifies to export usage statistics about parity

groups in long range. Also, the group RemoteCopy subcommand specifies to export statistics about

remote copy operations by XP Continuous Access and TrueCopy for z/OS in short range. You can

specify multiple lines of the group subcommand to export multiple monitoring items at the same time.

Short Range From: 2004/10/01 01:00 - To: 2004/10/01 15:00Interval : 1min

Long Range From: 2004/09/01 00:00 - To: 2004/10/01 15:00Interval : 15min

Remote Copy From: 2004/09/30 00:00 - To: 2004/10/01 15:00
