MPB-1MB is also listed in the MP Blade Configuration group box.
• MPB-1MB belongs to the Cluster 1 and the DKC 0.
•
1
in MPB-1MB represents the cluster # and MA represents the blade location for MPB-1MB.
• MP 0, MP 1, MP 2, and MP 3 are the MPs on MPB-1MB.
• The average utilization of MPB-1MB is 2%.
• The average utilization is calculated as the utilization of all the individual processors in MPB-1MB,
which is as follows: (MP1+MP2+MP3+MP4)/4.
• A total number of 264 consumers are assigned to MPB-1MB and grouped in the following com-
ponent types:
• LDEVs: 263
• Cont. Access Jnl Groups: 1
The average utilization of 2% is due to the 264 consumers that are utilizing the CPU cycles through
the associated processing types.
If you want to know which of the individual MPs on MPB-1MB is taking the processing load, click
the MPs in the MP Blade Configuration group box to view their utilization graphs. For example,
if over the last one day, one MP is servicing most of the I/O requests for the previous 23 hours,
you can plot the utilization graphs for all the MPs to view which one of them is processing the
maximum I/O requests.
• The processing types displayed in the Processing Distribution: MPB-1MB table are those utilizing
MPB-1MB to process requests from the associated consumers.
• The Avg. Util % in the Processing Distribution: MPB-1MB table displays the average MPB-1MB
utilization by each processing type, which totals to the 2% displayed in the MP Blade Summary:
MPB-1MB table.
• The consumers displayed in the Top Components: MPB-1MB table are for MPB-1MB. These con-
sumers can be associated with multiple processing types.
• The Avg. Util % for each consumer record in the Top Components: MPB-1MB table displays the
average MPB-1MB utilization by that consumer. For example, out of the 2.50% average utilization
displayed for the Backend processing type, 0.45% is the average MPB-1MB utilization by the
consumer 0:58 (LDEV) associated with Backend.

Viewing Smart and ThP pools data for P9000 disk arrays
P9000 Performance Advisor provides the current configuration and performance data for the Smart
pools and the ThP pools. Smart pools contain multiple storage tiers that can be categorized as the
upper and lower tiers. The upper tiers are created from the SSD drives and used for storing frequently
accessed data. The lower tiers can be created from the SAS or the SATA drives and used for storing
less accessed data.
