Repository for Manager
For Manager, the following amount of memory is required, depending on the numbers of managed storage modes, switches, and storage units.
Amount of disk space (MB) = 1 + [Number of target units] * 4
Additionally, when performance management is being performed, based on the fibre channel switch used to collect the performance information, the type of target (the ETERNUS/GR series), the number of logical units involved, the number of DE (Disk Enclosure), and the number of days for which information is to be collected, the required capacity given below becomes necessary.
Information
The default number of days for collection is seven. The number of secured LUs (Logical Units) is the actual number of LUs the functions of which are secured in order to perform performance management for the ETERNUS/GR series. Performance management is secured in units of 64 LUN for the ETERNUS/GR series. Therefore, when instructed to secure from LUN 15 to 200, the information for the actual LUs 0 to 255 (256 in total) would be secured.
