eG Monitoring
 

Measures reported by ClariionSpPortTest

This test reports the current status and overall health of each port on each storage processor supported by the storage system being monitored.

 The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Link_state Indicates the link state of this storage processor port.   If the storage port is up and running, then this measure will report the value Up. If not, then, this measure will report the value Down.

The numeric values that correspond to each of the states discussed above are available in the table below:

Numeric Value State
0 Down
1 Up

Note:

By default, this measure reports the values Up or Down to indicate the status of a port. The graph of this measure however, represents the port status using the numeric equivalents - 0 or 1.
Port_state Indicates the current state of this port.   The operational state of a port can be Online, Offline or Not Applicable.

The numeric values that correspond to each of the states discussed above are available in the table below:

Numeric Value State
1 Online
2 Offline
0 Not Applicable

Note:

By default, this measure reports the values Online, Offline or Not Applicable to indicate the status of a port. The graph of this measure however, represents the port status using the numeric equivalents - 0 to 2.
SFP_state Indicates the SFP state of this port. Number This measure can report any one of the following values:
  • Online
  • Faulted
  • Removed

The numeric values that correspond to each of the states discussed above are available in the table below:

Numeric Value State
1 Online
2 Faulted
0 Removed

Note:

By default, this measure reports the values Online, Faulted or Removed to indicate the status of a port. The graph of this measure however, represents the port status using the numeric equivalents - 0 to 2.
Reads Indicates the number of reads per second made on this port. Number Comparing the value of these measures across ports will clearly indicate which port is overloaded - it could also shed light on irregularities in load balancing across the ports.
Writes Indicates the number of writes per second made on this port. Number
Data_reads Indicates the rate at which data is read through this port. Blocks/Sec  
Data_writes Indicates the rate at which data is written through this port. Blocks/Sec
