Create an LDEV Activity report

To generate, save, or schedule an LDEV Activity report, follow the procedure given for creating or
scheduling a report. For more information, see Schedule reports on page 275. In addition, ensure that
the following steps specific to an LDEV Activity report are also completed:
1. Select LDEV Activity from the Report Type list.
2. Select the Metric Type as:
• FrontEndIO: Select this metric type to view a report of the most active or the least active LDEVs
(or both) based on the threshold specified for the total frontend I/Os.
• BackEndIO: Select this metric type to view a report of the most active or the least active LDEVs (or
both) based on the threshold specified for the total backend transfers.
• MB: Select this metric type to view a report of the most active or the least active LDEVs (or both)
based on the threshold specified for the total frontend throughput in MB/s.
• Utilization: Select this metric type to view a report of the most active or the least active LDEVs (or
both) based on the threshold specified for the total RAID group utilization of each LDEV.
• Read Response Time: Select this metric type to view a report of the most active or the least active
LDEVs (or both) based on the threshold specified for the read response time of each LDEV.
• Write Response Time: Select this metric type to view a report of the most active or the least active
LDEVs (or both) based on the threshold specified for the write response time of each LDEV.
3. Provide the Metric Upper Threshold and Metric Lower Threshold limits. The threshold limits that
you specify are independent of each other and applicable to only the category that you select. You can
set both the maximum and the minimum threshold levels, or one of them based on your requirement. It
is not mandatory to specify both the maximum and minimum threshold limits.
When you generate, save, or schedule this report, all the LDEVs that are above the specified maximum
threshold limit and below the minimum threshold limit are displayed in the report.
