The list on the right displays usage statistics about volumes in the specified parity group

(

Figure 21

on page 52). The displayed statistics are the average and the maximum usage rates

for the period specified in the From and To boxes.

Notes:

• If you change the date and time in the From and To boxes and then click the Apply button,

Performance Monitor recalculates usage rates and updates information in the list. To change

the date and time in From and To boxes, use the arrow buttons and the sliders (for details,

see

Auto LUN Window, Physical Tab

” on page 29).

• If an exclamation mark (!) is displayed before a usage rate, the reported volume usage rate

is likely to be inaccurate, because the configuration has changed (for example, volumes have

been moved by Auto LUN or Business Copy, or formatted by Virtual LVI or Open Volume

Management).

• If a plus mark (+) is displayed before a usage rate 0, such as +0, the usage rate is not

completely 0 but less than 1.

To display a graph that illustrates changes in usage rate for volumes, select the desired volumes

in the list and then click the Draw button.

Note:

The range of monitoring and the gathering interval affects the time period represented by

a graduation on the horizontal axis.

When selecting shortrange for storing period of statistics:

Note:

It is possible that the sum of the usage rate for each volume in a parity group is not equal to the

usage rate for that parity group (see

Viewing Usage Statistics about Parity Groups

” on page 50). This is

because the Auto LUN window rounds off fractions below the decimal point to the nearest whole number

when displaying the usage rate for each volume.
