on ECC you need to make sure WLA/Symmetrix agent is deployed and enabled. On Clariion look in Navisphere Analyzer and make sure it's set to collect statistic. If you pull up online help while in Navishpere, it will provide great documentation on how to use and analyze data collected by Navisphere Analyzer.

And to collect nar files you have to use Navisphere Analyzer. This is Clariion's equivalent of btp file.

Andy,

To collect performance files from Symmetrix you can use ECC Symmetrix agent or Solutions Enabler storstpd service. Btp/ttp files collect performance statistics about host/array. These files can be opened in Performance Manager to be analyzer for trends/issues.

I was wondering if there is a way that I could look at BTP files offline like you can do with the CX off array analyzer.

Thanks.

you can, open Performance Manager, select "Specific File" under Private Data and browse to btp/ttp file.

btp are binary files which has performance data for Symmetrix and nar is performance data for CLARiiONs.

We can also use ttps in both cases which is readable formats for both type of arrays.

Hi, dynamox,all

tried this, but this method failing with big ttp files, permormance manager will result in software crash, read it on net that it should be opted out in OS but this not helping as well.

Question is:

is  possible open big ttp file in size e.g. more than 30mb in perf.manager? if not, which method i should use

Thank you

smaller yes , bigger not, if you know way how to strip that files to smaller ttp files which should be processed without any problems that would be great

another question i saw from dmx frame collected db3 sqlite file, is possible to connect on service processor via ssh like on vnxe?

cases:

ttp file for dmx working under old perf. manager

solution:

installed ECC 6.1 with storage scope working without pm patch

or u should

install ECC 6.1 with perf.manager + pm patch for UB14

need to know if this method working posted in

Re: Symmetrix .ttp files from Vmax Sp

for d in `ls T1*ttp`;

do cat $d >> all.ttp;
