Network Storage Enclosure Inventory

•

Enclosure Configuration—Displays the type or model, name, and serial number of the network
storage enclosure.

•

Controllers—Displays the name and model of the enclosure and whether it is operating with
redundant controllers.

◦

If a redundant controller is configured, then both standby and active controllers are listed.

◦

If redundancy is not configured, only active controllers are listed.

•

Detected Servers—Displays a list of servers sharing the enclosure.

Host buses

The following information is provided for host buses.

Host Buses Status

•

Host Bus MBytes/Sec—The average number of megabytes transferred over the host buses
each second

Host Buses Inventory

•

Bus Configuration—Displays a summary of each PCI or PCI-X bus on the server with the
PCI/PCI-X slots and the I/O expansion boards installed in each slot

•

Operating speed—Displays the operating speed

PCI bus

The following information is provided for a PCI bus.

PCI Bus Status

•

MBytes/Sec—The average number of megabytes transferred on the selected PCI bus each
second.

•

PCI Utilization %—The PCI utilization for the selected PCI bus. A 32-bit PCI and 64-bit PCI
can operate simultaneously on the same PCI bus. The utilization is primarily dependent on the
MBytes/Sec rate and the negotiated PCI bus protocol:

◦

32-bit PCI—Operates at 33 MHz, resulting in a maximum throughput of 132 MB/s

◦

64-bit PCI—Operates at 33 MHz, resulting in a maximum throughput of 264 MB/s

◦

64-bit/50-MHz PCI-X—Provides a maximum throughput of 400 MB/s

◦

64-bit/66-MHz PCI or PCI-X—Provides a maximum throughput of 528 MB/s

◦

64-bit/100-MHz PCI-X—Provides a maximum throughput of 800 MB/s

◦

64-bit/133-MHz PCI-X—Provides a maximum throughput of 1064 MB/s

◦

PCI Express X1—Provides a maximum throughput of 500 MB/s

◦

PCI Express X2—Provides a maximum throughput of 1000 MB/s

◦

PCI Express X4—Provides a maximum throughput of 2 GB/s

◦

PCI Express X8—Provides a maximum throughput of 4 GB/s

◦

PCI Express X12—Provides a maximum throughput of 6 GB/s

◦

PCI Express X16—Provides a maximum throughput of 8 GB/s

PCI bus performance is evaluated using the Bus Utilization %.
