disk performance/usage by logical volume

Hi,

I have a disk performance issue. I have narrowed this down to two volume groups.

Each only has one disk. Both have multiple raw logical volumes.

I need to identify which raw lvol on my hpux boxes are using the disk and when, and track the performance.

Anyone know how to do this?

Hi,

if you have Glance, take a look to screen "IO By Logical Volume" (key v).

Re: disk performance/usage by logical volume

using vgdisplay -v , identify the disks. Then do a pvdisplay -v /dev/dsk/c#t#d# on the disk and identify, which logical volumes are part of the particular disk.

Don't give up. Try till success...

Re: disk performance/usage by logical volume

John,

You can figure out from this screen:
In Glance check,
d Disk Detail
i Disk I/O by File System
v Logical Volume Detail


Also from the top pid , using top io ,
you can do a ps -ef on the pid. You will know the process details and subsequently filesystem/lv details from that as well.


Cheers,
Raj.

Re: disk performance/usage by logical volume

Thanks guys,

I have done this with glance. Is there a way to run glance and monitor only the lvols i am interested in, dumping the output to a file?
