Starting monitoring

After you have set the storing period for the monitoring data (short-range or long-range), you can
start the monitoring function.

CAUTION:

When you start monitoring a storage system, all of its previous monitoring statistics

are deleted. If you want to keep the previous monitoring statistics, first export the desired data
using the Export Tool and then restart monitoring.

to 15 minutes, monitoring data is not accumulated for up to 29 minutes after the start of
monitoring.
