Measures reported by NetCluLifPerfTest

A logical interface is an IP address associated with a physical network port on the NetApp Cluster. For logical interfaces using NAS data protocols, the interface can fail over or be migrated to a different physical port in the event of component failures, thereby continuing to provide network access despite the component failure.

This test auto-discovers the logical interfaces and for each logical interface, this test, promptly captures the processing ability, errors encountered during data transmission/reception and the uptime of the interface.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Received_data Indicates the rate at which data was received by this logical interface. MB/Sec  
Received_errors Indicates the rate at which erorrs occurred while receiving data through this logical interface. Errors/Sec Ideally, the value of this measure should be zero.
Received_packets Indicates the rate at which the data packets were received by this logical interface. Packets/Sec  
Sent_data Indicates the rate at which data was sent through this logical interface. MB/Sec  
Sent_errors Indicates the rate at which errors occurred while sending data through this logical interface. Errors/Sec Ideally, the value of this measure should be 0.
Sent_packets Indicates the rate at which data packets were sent through this logical interface. Packets/Sec  
Uptime Indicates the total time duration for which this logical interface has been up.   This measure displays the number of years, months, days, hours, minutes and seconds since the last reboot.
Diff_upTime Indicates the time duration for which this logical interface has been up since the last measurement period. Secs
