Statistics 3 Displaying statistics through BCU Use the port --stats BCU command to display statistics for a specified adapter port. port --stats where: port_id ID of the port for which you want to display statistics. This could be the PWWN, port hardware path, or user-specified port name. This could also be the adapter-index/port-index. For example, to specify adapter 1, port 1, you would use 1/1 as the port identification. Displaying statistics through HCM Use the Port Statistics dialog box to monitor a variety of port data. Launch this dialog box using the following steps: 1. Launch the HCM. 2. Select the base adapter port from the device tree window. 3. Click Monitor > Statistics > Port Statistics. Real-time and historical performance statistics Use HCM to collect and display real-time and historical performance data in graphs for the following counters. • Tx bytes (Mbps) • Rx bytes (Mbps) • Tx drops • Rx drops-The number of dropped received frames • Tx FCS errors • Rx FCS errors • Rx packets Display statistics for the following managed devices: • Ports on all adapter types. • Virtual ports • Ethernet ports on the Ethernet node (CNAs and Fabric Adapter ports configured in CNA or NIC mode) • Remote port (FCP IM statistics) You can launch graphs for multiple ports to observe the historical trend or real-time behavior of statistics across multiple ports. You can also change the polling intervals in seconds for collecting data to display. To generate a real-time performance graph for a device, use the following steps. 1. Select a device port in the device tree. 2. Select Configure > Performance > Realtime Statistics to display the Realtime Performance dialog box.

Statistics

Displaying statistics through BCU
Use the
port --stats
BCU command to display statistics for a specified adapter port.
port --stats <port_id>
where:
port_id
ID of the port for which you want to display statistics. This could be the
PWWN, port hardware path, or user-specified port name. This could also be
the adapter-index/port-index. For example, to specify adapter 1, port 1, you
would use 1/1 as the port identification.
Displaying statistics through HCM
Use the
Port Statistics
dialog box to monitor a variety of port data. Launch this dialog box using the
following steps:
1.
Launch the HCM.
2.
Select the base adapter port from the device tree window.
3.
Click
Monitor > Statistics > Port Statistics
.
Real-time and historical performance statistics
Use HCM to collect and display real-time and historical performance data in graphs for the following
counters.
Tx bytes (Mbps)
Rx bytes (Mbps)
Tx drops
Rx drops—The number of dropped received frames
Tx FCS errors
Rx FCS errors
Rx packets
Display statistics for the following managed devices:
Ports on all adapter types.
Virtual ports
Ethernet ports on the Ethernet node (CNAs and Fabric Adapter ports configured in CNA or NIC
mode)
Remote port (FCP IM statistics)
You can launch graphs for multiple ports to observe the historical trend or real-time behavior of
statistics across multiple ports. You can also change the polling intervals in seconds for collecting
data to display.
To generate a real-time performance graph for a device, use the following steps.
1.
Select a device port in the device tree.
2.
Select
Configure > Performance > Realtime Statistics
to display the
Realtime Performance
dialog box.
