Fujitsu CM Channel Adapter Port Test
This test monitors the workload of each channel adapter port and helps administrators identify the port through which maximum read/write IOPS is done.
Target of the test : Fujitsu Storage AF/DX
Agent deploying the test : A remote agent
Outputs of the test : One set of results for each channel adapter port in a Fujitsu Storage AF/DX that is currently launched.
Parameters | Description |
---|---|
Test Period |
How often should the test be executed. |
Host |
The nick name of the Fujitsu Storage AF/DX component for which this test is to be configured. |
Port |
Refers to the port at which the specified host listens to. By default, this is NULL. |
Timeout |
Specify the duration (in seconds) within which this test should time out in this text box. The default is 10 seconds. |
Use SUDO |
To run this test and report metrics, the eG agent install user should have permissions to run the rndc stats command and read from the statistics-file. If the eG agent install user possesses these privileges, then set the Use SUDO flag to No. If the eG agent install user does not have the required permissions, then do the following:
|
High Security |
This flag is applicable only when the target Linux host is monitored in the agentless manner. In highly secure environments, eG Enterprise could not perform agentless monitoring the Fujitsu Storage running on a Linux host using SSH. To enable monitoring of the Fujitsu Storage in such environments, set the HIGH SECURITY flag to Yes. It indicates that eG Enterprise will connect to the target Fujitsu Storage in a more secure way and collect performance metrics. By default, this flag is set to No. |
Measurement |
Description |
Measurement Unit |
Interpretation |
---|---|---|---|
Read IOPS |
Indicates the number of read operations performed on this channel adapter port per second. |
Operations/sec |
Compare the values of these measures across channel adapter ports to know what is contributing to the abnormal I/O activity levels - read operations? or write operations?
|
Write IOPS |
Indicates the number of write operations performed on this channel adapter port per second. |
Operations/sec |
|
Read throughput |
Indicates the rate at which this channel adapter port processes read requests. |
MB/Sec |
|
Write throughput |
Indicates the rate at which this channel adapter port processes write requests. |
MB/Sec |
