View the charts and the performance metrics that are collected about storage resources
and their internal and related resources. Also view

resources.
Investigating the performance of storage resources
You can investigate the information that is collected about the storage resources that you add to IBM Storage Insights Pro . To identify performance issues, the information that is collected is shown in charts and tables.
Controls for performance views
The Performance page includes controls for you to customize how information is displayed. You can determine the performance metrics that are displayed for storage system resources such as volumes, disks, or ports and you can specify a time range for the information. You can also determine the port metrics that displayed for switches.
Performance metrics
Collect and use metrics to measure the performance of storage systems that are monitored by IBM Storage Insights Pro . Metrics are also collected to measure the performance of switches that are monitored.
Exporting and uploading performance data for storage systems
To help resolve performance issues with storage systems, you can export performance data for the resource to a compressed file. If you contact IBM® Support to help you analyze the problem, you might be asked to send this file. You can also upload the performance data to a support ticket that is associated with the storage system. Available for IBM Storage Insights Pro only.
IBM Storage Virtualize guideline values for key performance indicators
To improve the performance and resiliency of your storage environment, compare the guideline values for key performance indicators with the values reported for your storage systems and devices.
Tutorial: Viewing the aggregated workload for an application
Bob is a storage administrator. Bob wants to easily evaluate the performance of the accounting application because the Accounts department is expanding to a new location and they want to replicate their data across both locations. Bob needs to work out the inter-site link capacity requirements.
