Page 72 highlights

Volume properties When you select the Volumes component, the Volumes table shows: • The volume's name, serial number, and size • The name of the vdisk containing the volume Snap-pool properties When you select the Snap Pools component, the Snap Pools table shows: • The snap pool's name, serial number, size, and free space • The quantity of master volumes and snapshots associated with the snap pool • The name of the vdisk containing the snap pool Viewing information about a volume In the Configuration View panel, right-click a volume and select View > Overview. The Volume Overview table shows: • The capacity and space usage of the volume • The quantity of mappings for the volume • The quantity of task schedules for the volume For descriptions of storage-space color codes, see About storage-space color codes on page 26. Select a component to see more information about it. Volume properties When you select the Volume component, the Properties for Volume table shows: • Vdisk Name. Name of the vdisk that the volume is in. • Name. • Size. • Preferred Owner. Controller that owns the vdisk and its volumes during normal operation. • Current Owner. Either the preferred owner during normal operation or the partner controller when the preferred owner is offline. • Serial Number. • Cache Write Policy. Write-back or write-through. See Using write-back or write-through caching on page 19. • Cache Optimization. Standard or super-sequential. See Optimizing read-ahead caching on page 19. • Read Ahead Size. See Optimizing read-ahead caching on page 19. • Type. Standard volume, master volume, or snapshot. • Progress. If the volume is being created by a volume-copy operation, the percent complete. • Volume Description. For OpenVMS, a numeric value (set in SMU) that identifies the volume to an OpenVMS host. For HP-UX, a text value (set in-band by a host application) that identifies the volume. Blank if not set. Mapping properties When you select the Maps component, the Maps for Volume table shows: • Type. Explicit or Default. Settings for an explicit mapping override the default mapping. • Host ID. WWPN or IQN. • Name. Host name. • Ports. Controller host ports through which the volume is mapped to the host. • LUN. Volume identifier presented to the host. • Access. Volume access type: read-write, read-only, no-access (masked), or not-mapped. 72 Viewing system status
