Percentage of MP blade
utilization by a consumer
NOTE: A consumer's percentage of MP blade utilization may or may not be constant for the
entire duration that you select. For example, it can be the utilization at a particular time stamp
that is the maximum compared to the utilization by other components during the selected
duration.

IMPORTANT:
This section is applicable for P9500/XP7 disk arrays.
You can view the average MP blade utilization split up for the different processing types. For example, if
the average MP blade utilization by a Frontend processing type is significantly higher than the other
processing types, it indicates that more CPU cycles are utilized to process requests from the Frontend
consumers. Similarly, if the average utilization by a Backend processing type is high, it indicates that more
CPU cycles are utilized to process backend transfers for the Backend consumers.
The following table describes the different processing types.
Example
1055, LDEV: 1: 95 (Backend)
A consumer's association with a processing type provides an
understanding on the number of processing cycles used by the
consumer with different processing types.
For example, an LDEV 0:09 may be involved in processing frontend
and backend requests. Its processing type reveals whether the
frontend or the backend requests have been high. Further to the
above-mentioned example:
• If the average utilization shown for the Frontend processing type
is 30% and 25% is contributed by the LDEV 1:95
• If the average utilization shown for the Backend processing type
is 25% and 15% is contributed by the LDEV 1:95
This data indicates that the LDEV 1:95 has been addressing high
frontend requests when compared to the backend activities.
NOTE: The average utilization of an MP Blade is always on a
scale of 1 - 100%.
1.84%
Indicates that 1.84% is the average MP blade utilization by the
consumer 1:95 that belongs to the LDEV category and associated
with the Backend processing type.
It also indicates that out of the average MP blade utilization
displayed for the Backend processing type, 1.84% utilization is due
to the consumer 1:95.
