Monitor Menu

View Statistics

The View Statistics menu (Figure 18) displays the performance of the drives and their
corresponding level of hierarchy. The throughput of the drives is displayed in KB's (KiloBytes per
second) and I/O's (I/Os per second, number of I/O's on the controller). The performance figures
reflect the load on the controller and not necessarily the maximum performance the controller can
deliver.
When selecting a drive's statistics, StorCon displays a list of all drives for a particular RAID level
(for this example the physical drive for RAID level 1). In addition to the performance report on the
drives, the menu monitor displays the hard drive I/O channel, hard drive ID, hard drive name and
hard drive gross capacity (1 MB = 1024 KB). See Figure 19. The figures shown at TOTAL
represent the performance of the host drives as a whole. With the left arrow and right arrow keys
you may change the scale of the graphical KB/s indication. With the up arrow and down arrow
keys you can scroll the screen to see additional drives (if available).
