VMAX FA proc % busy doesnt add up
I am looking at the HEAT map for a VMAX and it is showing two FA processors at 80% busy and when I open it up to show both ports they dont match up. The overall busy is running right around 80% however port 0 is showing 14% and port 1 2-4% busy. The data chart is at the default which is to show the average for the time.
No Events found!

Thanks Quincy as usual a good answer that makes sense now. You were pretty darn fast too.

The port utilization is looking at the available pipe bandwidth, not CPU usage. Your CPU could be 100% busy doing 512 byte IOs, while the 8gb pipe (up to 800 MB/sec) could just be doing a small amount of MBs/sec, so the ports will show low utilization.
