    Note: This feature isn't available to all IBM Storage Insights users. Look for news from IBM® about when this feature will be available to you.

Results

Where the View Performance feature is available, the aggregated information for all of the volumes in the subcomponent is displayed on the performance view. By default, the Total I/O Rate and the Total Data Rate are displayed in the performance chart. You can also select to display the read and write I/O rates, and the read and write data rates in the chart.
