set
Description
The set subcommand starts or ends monitoring the storage system (for example, starts or ends
collecting performance statistics). The set subcommand also specifies the sampling interval (interval
of collecting statistics) in short range monitoring.
If you want to use the set subcommand, you must use the login subcommand (see
to log on to SVP. Ensure that the set subcommand executes immediately before the
Export Tool finishes.
Executing the set subcommand generates an error in the following conditions:
•
Some other user is being logged onto SVP in Modify mode.
•
Maintenance operations are being performed at SVP.
If an error occurs, do the following:
•
Ensure that all users who are logged onto SVP are not in Modify mode. If any user is logged
on in Modify mode, ask the user to switch to View mode.
•
Wait until maintenance operations finish at SVP, so that the set subcommand can execute.
NOTE:
Following are notes of the set command.
◦
Batch files can include script that should execute when an error occurs. For information
about writing such a script in your batch file, see Notes in
◦
When the set subcommand starts or ends the monitoring or changes the sampling interval
after the Monitor Performance window is started, the contents displayed in the Monitor
Performance window does not change automatically in conjunction with the set
subcommand operation. To display the current monitoring status in the Monitor
Performance window, click Refresh on the menu bar of the Remote Web Console main
window.
◦
If you change the specified sampling interval during a monitoring, the previously collected
monitoring data will be deleted.
