Performance characteristics (views) for latency, input and output operations per second, and CPU utilization

Aggregate latency

This sample code provides information about read latency, write latency, and average latency of an aggregate. Performance Advisor does not provide counters to get aggregate latency directly. This sample code demonstrates a method to generate aggregate latency data by collecting the latency of all the volumes present in the aggregate. This data can be used to generate charts to represent data in graphical format. To generate the graph, you have to redirect the output of this sample code to an Excel sheet.

Volume Latency

This sample code prints the average latency of all the volumes present for the aggregate. This data can be used to generate a distribution chart for average latency of a volume. To generate the graph, you have to redirect the output of this sample code to an Excel sheet.

CPU utilization

This sample code prints CPU utilization statistics of a storage system. The sample code collects CPU utilization data for two weeks and prints the data in a format that enables comparison of CPU utilization in day-hour format for both the weeks. The output data of this sample code can be used to generate chart. To generate the graph, you have to redirect the output of this sample code to an Excel sheet.
