An administrator is using Unisphere for PowerMax Workload Planner to assess the performance and compliance of a PowerMax Storage Group (SG).
How does the Planner calculate if the Storage Group workload is fully compliant?
The Workload Planner calculates the compliance of a PowerMax Storage Group workload by evaluating the weighted SG average response time for the past 4 hours and the past two weeks. This method provides a balanced view of both short-term and longer-term performance, ensuring that the storage group's performance is consistently within acceptable limits over both recent and extended periods.
Once configured, Unisphere for VMAX will assess the performance of the storage every 30 minutes, and deliver the appropriate alert level. When assessing the compliance of a storage group, Workload Planner calculates its weighted response time for the past 4 hours and for the past 2 weeks, and then compares the two values to the maximum response time associated with its given service level
