Figure 3 Sample Pool Information
You can use both XP Performance Advisor and Performance Monitor to collect I/O data on V-VOL
and pool usage:
•
Using XP Performance Advisor:
The current used pool capacity and the chronological changes in the used pool capacity ◦
◦ The current used V-VOL capacity (ratio of the stored data) and the chronological changes
in the used V-VOL capacity
•
Using Performance Monitor:
Frequency of V-VOL access, read hit ratio, and write hit ratio ◦
◦ Pool I/O rates in the parity group
Figure 4 (page 12) shows management of usage levels and operation information.

Full Pool conditions can be managed in two ways. The difference between the two handling
methods is how a V-VOL is treated if it requires new pool capacity when no capacity is available.
