Interpret cluster-wide CI, NI, and Adapter Statistics

The CI, NI, and adapter statistics follow the cluster-wide Lock statistics. To display only the CI, NI and adapter statistics section of the Performance Evaluation Report, use the following qualifier:

/INCLUDE=CI_NI_AND_ADAPTER_STATISTICS

To disable the CI, NI and adapter statistics display from the report, use the following qualifier:

/INCLUDE=NOCI_NI_AND_ADAPTER_STATISTICS

Note: The phrase CI, NI and adapter statistics is seen in the Performance Evaluation Report to describe cluster interconnect statistics in general. CI hardware is not supported on HP Integrity Servers. On a cluster of only Integrity Servers, you will see only NI adapters.

The following statements are keyed to the columns in the previous report:

  1. Device identification of path to remote SCS nodes.
  2. Node name of the cluster node.
  3. Adapter type for the cluster node (all Ethernet adapter types are reported as NI).
  4. Number of datagrams per second sent and received by this node's port.
  5. Number of messages per second sent and received by this node's port.
  6. Number of disk IOs per second delivered through this port.
  7. Number of kilobytes per second delivered through this port to disks.
  8. Number of kilobytes per second total delivered through this port.
