Viewing Parity Group data

Consider the scenario of five RAID groups (preferably belonging to the same drive type). You want
to know which is the least busiest RAID group, so that you can provision storage space from the RAID
group to create new LDEVs in that RAID group. P9000 Performance Advisor helps you to identify the
least utilized RAID group by providing the backend I/O metric and utilization metric graphs for the
five RAID groups that you select in P9000 Remote Web Console. The I/O metric data provides an
