When you double-click on a port, the tree expands to display two items: Monitor and
Non-Monitor. The host bus adapters that are connected to the specified port are displayed
below Monitor or Non-Monitor.
If you double-click Monitor, the host bus adapters (
port is monitored are displayed below Monitor.
If you double-click Non-Monitor, the host bus adapters whose traffic with the specified port
is not monitored are displayed below Non-Monitor.
The WWN and PFC names of the host bus adapters are displayed on the right of the host bus
adapter icon ( ) below Monitor. WWNs (Worldwide Name) are 16-digit hexadecimal numbers
used to uniquely identify host bus adapters. PFC names are nicknames assigned by the
system administrator so that they can easily identify each host bus adapter.
Only the WWN is displayed on the right of the host bus adapter icon (
When many-to-many connections are established between host bus adapters (HBAs) and
ports, make sure that all traffic between HBAs and ports is monitored. Therefore, make sure
that all connected HBAs are displayed below Monitor. For details on how to move an HBA
displayed below Non-Monitor to below Monitor, see

The list on the right of the tree changes depending on the item you select in the tree as follows.
When you select a port or Monitor icon, the list shows the information of host bus adapters
that are connected to the ports and monitored by Performance Monitor.

PFC groups and host bus adapters (WWNs) in each PFC group:
PFC groups ( ), which contain one or more WWNs, appear below the Storage System
folder. For details on PFC groups, see
If you double-click a PFC group, host bus adapters in that group expand in the tree. The
WWN and PFC name appear to the right of the host bus adapter icon (
If the WWN of a host bus adapter (HBA) appears in red in the tree, the host bus adapter is
connected to two or more ports, but the traffic between the HBA and some of the ports is not
monitored by Performance Monitor. When many-to-many connections are established between
HBAs and ports, make sure that all traffic between HBAs and ports is monitored. For details

already registered on a PFC group, the Add NNW button is unavailable.
Allows you to change the type of performance statistics to be displayed in the WWN list.
If IOPS (I/Os per second) is selected, the list displays I/O rates for ports. The I/O rate
indicates the number of I/Os per second.
If MB/s (megabytes per second) is selected, the list displays the transfer rates for ports.
The transfer rate indicates the size of data transferred via a port in one second.
