HPSHC question

[Alex Lavrov.]

Hello, I installed hpshc on one of my servers and I want to know when and for how long to run it on my system and then send to HP? Is there any recommended values, so they'll have enough data to operate with?

Thanx

Oh, sorry :)

It's System Health Check:

The generic guidleine would be to run it for at least one day, on which you have your normal workload.
You can also specifiy it to run during a normal working day if the system is quiet after hours.
I often set it up to run for a couple of days if I am doing a Professional Report as this gives me some comparative data.
Just a guidleine, not a definitive statement

Hi Alex,

i have just run it last week last Monday
on business time from 08:00 am to 18:00 pm
but it is up to you you can easily configure
and collect the data what you decide.
Normally,i can advise to run shc twice in a year but it is not a rule

Good Luck,

[Alex Lavrov.]

Thanx for the replies.

According to the agreement with HP, HP will analyze only one report, so I'll run it only twice.

I decided to run for 48 hours, to see the system's behavior during the day and niht as well.
