Example troubleshooting scenarios

The following are the example use cases for understanding troubleshooting functionality:

Application has 3 LDEVs from XP mapped to it through two different ports (1A and 5A). There is one
CLPR (CLPR10) that hosts these LDEVs:

LDEV 1: RG 1-1: RAID1 (2D+2D)

LDEV 2: RG 1-2: RAID5 (3D+1D)

LDEV 3: RG 2-1, 2-2: RAID5 (14D+2P)

Issue 1

High utilization of CHA MP on port 5A causing response time to increase for all LDEVs associated
with the application. The MP in question manages another port (7A) whose IOPS are high in number
causing the MP utilization to go up. Port 7A does not have any LDEVs mapped to the host in question.

Steps for troubleshooting:

1.

Launch P9000 Performance Advisor.

2.

Navigate to the troubleshooting screen.
