Enable Performance Collection Schedules For Automatic Updates - HPE XP7 User Manual

In case of performance data collection failures, the appropriate failure messages are displayed on the
Event Log screen. PA can also dispatch email notification about the collection failure to the intended
recipient. To receive performance data collection failure notification, you must configure the appropriate
email notification settings.

Enable performance collection schedules for automatic updates

You can enable the performance data collection schedules to automatically collect the performance data
for newly discovered RAID Groups and ports. The new RAID Groups and ports in an array are discovered
during the scheduled configuration data collection. They are automatically added to the existing list of
RAID Groups and ports in the corresponding performance data collection schedule, which is enabled to
collect performance data for the new components. The newly discovered components are added to only
those performance data collection schedules that are enabled for automatic updates. PA collects data for
new RAID Groups and ports from the subsequent data collection cycle.
The new components can also comprise of virtual volumes, such as ThP, snapshot, continuous access
journals, and the external RAID Groups. The virtual volumes cannot be split across two schedules. They
are automatically added to only those performance data collection schedules that are already collecting
the performance data for these virtual volumes. It is irrespective of whether the performance data
collection schedule is enabled to receive automatic updates.
For a schedule to automatically collect data for the new set of RAID Groups and ports, in the Create/Edit
Perf page, select the Add new RGs and Ports to the schedules that have RG and Port components
enabled check box while creating a performance data collection schedule. The following table provides
scenarios on when a schedule can be enabled for automatic updates.
