IMPORTANT:

The port type, such as Fibre, Ficon, Escon, or FCoE (applicable only for P9000 disk arrays)
is also displayed beside the port ID.

Since, the CHIP/CHA and the ACP/DKA MPs are moved to the MP blades in the P9000 disk
arrays, their MP utilization metrics are not applicable for the P9000 disk arrays. For more
information, see

“Viewing MP blade utilization for P9000 disk arrays” (page 191)

.
