EVA P6000 performance monitoring

[Yaboto]

Hi,

There is a performance issue and users are putting it on the EVA P6000 Storage. I want to find a way to get statistics to interpret the results.

Please Advise.

Hello,

use evaperf on windows host where is CV installed (it comes with CV).

then learn how to use it - just run evaperf.

My favourite example is: evaperf vdg -cont 4 (it means show stats for virtual disk group each 4 seconds), you should check latencies especially.

What about if I want to identify possible bottlenecks at the EVA controllers FC ports ?

Just to show to the customer wether there is i/o bottleneck or not.

use hps switch: evaperf hps -cont 4

shows host port status each 4 seconds, you can see there number of i/o, cpu usage...
