Hi Tomrbc,

The Navisphere Analyzer Admin guide has been moved to Navisphere and Unisphere Help. Search for Analyzer in the help menu for directions in using Analyzer. The older Navisphere Analyzer Admin guides are still available if you want to use them for reference. You can locate the Admin guide by navigating to Home > Support > Technical Documentation and Advisories > Software ~ J-O ~ Documentation > Navisphere Management Suite > Maintenance/Administration on Powerlink.

You may want to also check out the following white paper regarding performance: White Paper: EMC CLARiiON Storage System Fundamentals for Performance and Availability — Applied Best Practices found on
Home > Support > Technical Documentation and Advisories > Hardware/Platforms Documentation > CLARiiON CX4 Series Systems > CLARiiON CX4-960 > White Papers

The Flare 30 best practice performance is in progress, I don't have an ETA as of yet. Also check out the documents section of this forums which has a number of documents addressing performance and array functionality. Hope this helps. If it does please mark you discussion as answered.

Thanks,

Kristi

Excerpt from FAST Cache whitepaper on Powerlink:

After you install FAST Cache, Unisphere Analyzer gathers FAST Cache statistics to help you monitor FAST Cache performance. To view these statistics, you must enable Analyzer’s Advanced mode. To enable Analyzer’s Advanced mode: In Unisphere click the Monitoring tab; in the Analyzer section click Customize Charts; click the General tab; and select the Advanced checkbox.

In addition to everything that was already suggested regarding Analyzer, there is a good walk-through from one of the regulars here on the forum.

lol, wasn't paying attention to the dates; just saw that it was reinvigorated for something completely unrelated.
