Performance monitoring

The Host Connectivity Manager (HCM) Port Statistics window enables you to monitor the
performance of the adapter and the traffic between the adapter and the LUNs. You can use the
information to isolate and troubleshoot areas that impact application performance.
Table 8 lists the port statistics that are monitored by component. Refer to Appendix A, “HCM Dialog
Boxes” for a description of each statistics field.
