Unisphere Array Utilization by Storage Group
What is the best way to find out the hosts (or storage group) that are utilizing the most I/O on an array? With the default dashboards it looks like the only thing I can do is look at each Storage Group. I'd like to get a dashboard that shows Array IOPS and Array MB/s by storage group. From what I can tell this isn't available in the Performance Analysis so I can't create a chart to make it a dashboard. Is anyone else doing something like this? It would be great to refer to when performance thresholds are hit etc.
That would require one to look at each Storage Group individually. I'd like a list of the "Top 10 I/O hosts" or something like that to easily find what hosts are consuming I/O at a given time. When FE ports or a disk group gets high in utilization there's no easy way to determine what host is causing this.
I have posed the same question for how to create a dashboard to see which Storage Groups are utilizing a FE port by %. This view used to exist in SMC. It was very handy to find out who was dominating an FE port pair.
SMC had a few views that were quite nice. Too bad they left.

Hi Garret_Black ,
I tried creating a dashboard to show the Array Host MBs/Sec and storage group host MB/sec and was successful doing that ,
is that what you are trying to do ?
if so , you can do so by going to
Performance -> Monitor -> Create Dashboard -> and in the “select chart source” you can select all Arrays (or) Storage Group depending on your request and finish the wizard .
if you think this has answered your question , please mark this as answered
