33 SAN performance overview

SAN performance measures

Performance measures enable you to select one or more measures to define the graph or report. The measures available to you depend on the object type from which you want to gather performance data.

NOTE

Devices with 10GE ports must be running Fabric OS 6.4.1 or later to obtain the correct TE_Port statistics (TX/RX).

NOTE

Devices with 10GE ports must have the RMON MIB enabled on the switch. For more information about the rmon collection command, refer to the Fabric OS Converged Enhanced Ethernet Command Reference.

You can define a report or graph for the following performance data:

Current — Available in mAmps for installed SFPs.

Rx Power — Available in dBm for installed SFPs.

Tx Power — Available in dBm for installed SFPs.

Temperature — Available in Centigrade for installed SFPs.

Voltage — Available in mVolts for installed SFPs.

Tx % Utilization — Available for FC, GE, managed HBA ports, managed CNA ports, E_port trunks, 10GE ports, and FCIP tunnels.

Rx % Utilization — Available for FC, GE, managed HBA ports, managed CNA ports, 10GE ports, E_port trunks, and FCIP tunnels.

Tx MB/Sec — Available for FC, GE, managed HBA ports, managed CNA ports, 10GE ports, E_port trunks, FCIP tunnels, and end-to-end monitors.

Rx MB/Sec — Available for FC, GE, managed HBA ports, managed CNA ports, 10GE ports, E_port trunks, FCIP tunnels, and end-to-end monitors.

CRC Errors — Available for FC, managed HBA ports, managed CNA ports, 10GE ports and end-to-end monitors.

Signal Losses — Available for managed HBA ports, managed CNA ports, and FC ports.

Sync Losses — Available for managed HBA ports, managed CNA ports, and FC ports.
