Snapshot properties When you select the Snapshots component a table shows each snapshot's name, serial number, source volume, snap-pool name, amounts of snap data, unique data, and shared data, and vdisk name. • Snap data is the total amount of data associated with the specific snapshot (data copied from a source volume to a snapshot and data written directly to a snapshot). • Unique data is the amount of data that has been written to the snapshot since the last snapshot was taken. If the snapshot has not been written or is deleted, this value is zero bytes. • Shared data is the amount of data that is potentially shared with other snapshots and the associated amount of space that will be freed if the snapshot is deleted. This represents the amount of data written directly to the snapshot. It also includes data copied from the source volume to the storage area for the oldest snapshot, since that snapshot does not share data with any other snapshot. For a snapshot that is not the oldest, if the modified data is deleted or if it had never been written to, this value is zero bytes. Schedule properties When you select the Schedules component a table shows each schedule's name, specification, status, next run time, task type, task status, and task state. A second table shows details including the last error message (if any), source volume name and serial number, prefix, number of times run, and the last item created. Configuration limits When you select the Configuration Limits component a table shows the maximum quantities of vdisks, volumes, LUNs, disks, and host ports that the system supports. Licensed features When you select the Licensed Features component a table shows the status of licensed features. Version properties When you select the Versions component a table shows the versions of firmware and hardware in your system. Viewing the system event log In the Configuration View panel, right-click the system and select View > Event Log. The System Events panel shows the 400 most recent events that have been logged by either controller. All events are logged, regardless of event-notification settings. Click the buttons above the table to view all events, or only critical, warning, or informational events. The event log table shows the following information: • Severity. Critical. Alerts you that the system or a vdisk has a failure that requires immediate attention. Warning. Warns you that the system or a vdisk has a problem that you should correct as soon as possible. Informational. Informs you that either a change was made to the system or a problem occurred that the system corrected; no action is required. • Time. Date and time when the event occurred, in the format yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss. Time stamps have one-second granularity. • Event ID. An identifier for the event. The prefix A or B identifies the controller that logged the event. • Code. Event code that helps you and support personnel diagnose problems. For event-code descriptions and recommended actions, see the Event code reference appendix. • Message. Information about the event. 68 Viewing system status

Viewing system status

Snapshot properties

When you select the Snapshots component a table shows each snapshot's name, serial number, source

volume, snap-pool name, amounts of snap data, unique data, and shared data, and vdisk name.

•

Snap data is the total amount of data associated with the specific snapshot (data copied from a source

volume to a snapshot and data written directly to a snapshot).

•

Unique data is the amount of data that has been written to the snapshot since the last snapshot was

taken. If the snapshot has not been written or is deleted, this value is zero bytes.

•

Shared data is the amount of data that is potentially shared with other snapshots and the associated

amount of space that will be freed if the snapshot is deleted. This represents the amount of data written

directly to the snapshot. It also includes data copied from the source volume to the storage area for the

oldest snapshot, since that snapshot does not share data with any other snapshot. For a snapshot that

is not the oldest, if the modified data is deleted or if it had never been written to, this value is zero

bytes.

Schedule properties

When you select the Schedules component a table shows each schedule's name, specification, status, next

run time, task type, task status, and task state.

A second table shows details including the last error message (if any), source volume name and serial

number, prefix, number of times run, and the last item created.

Configuration limits

When you select the Configuration Limits component a table shows the maximum quantities of vdisks,

volumes, LUNs, disks, and host ports that the system supports.

Licensed features

When you select the Licensed Features component a table shows the status of licensed features.

Version properties

When you select the Versions component a table shows the versions of firmware and hardware in your

system.

possible.

Informational. Informs you that either a change was made to the system or a problem occurred that

the system corrected; no action is required.

•

Time. Date and time when the event occurred, in the format

yyyy

. Time stamps have

one-second granularity.

•

Event ID. An identifier for the event. The prefix A or B identifies the controller that logged the event.

•
