Replication Performance
The DXi4700 maintains cumulative performance statistics for send and receive replication activity. The
statistics appear on the
Home
page and elsewhere. You can reset these statistics so the system will
calculate them with new data going forward.
Clear Send Statistics
To clear send statistics, first select one or more targets to clear statistics for, and then click
Clear Send
. This
resets cumulative performance statistics gathered while replicating shares or partitions to the selected target
systems, or when sending a snapshot during a failback operation.
Clear Receive Statistics
To clear receive statistics, click
Clear Receive
. This resets cumulative performance statistics gathered
while receiving replicated shares or partitions from source systems, or when receiving a snapshot during a
failback operation.
