Measures reported by HPEvaDGStatusTest

This test reports the current operational state of each disk group on the storage array, monitors the space usage of every group, and enables administrators to accurately identify which disk group is experiencing a space crunch currently.

 The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Operational_state Indicates the current operational mode of this disk group.   The table below displays the States that can be reported by this measure, and their numeric equivalents:

State Value
failed or bad 0
good, attention, or normal 1
unknown, not availabe, notinstalled, not_present, unsupported, etc. 2

Note:

By default, this measure reports one of the States listed in the table above. The graph of this measure however will represent the operational state using the numeric equivalents - ‘0’ to ‘2’.

Total_capacity Indicates the total storage space on the this group. GB  
Used_capacity Indicates the amount of storage space on this group that is in use currently. GB  
Percent_free Indicates the percentage of space available for use on the this group. Percent Ideally, the value of this measure should be high. A low value or a value that decreases consistently over time could indicate a potential space crunch on the group.
Disk count Indicates the number of disks in this group. Number  
Drive_state Indicates the current state of drives in this group.   The table below displays the States that can be reported by this measure, and their numeric equivalents:

State Value
offline 0
online 1
unknown 2

Note:

By default, this measure reports one of the States listed in the table above. The graph of this measure however will represent the disk state using the numeric equivalents - ‘0’ to ‘2’.
