Storage Layout
The Storage Layout report shows a graphical or tabular representation of all the
components in the storage subsystem. This report shows you:
Physical drives and drive groups (physical drives assigned to a storage pool)
Storage pools with the assigned hot-spare drives
Virtual drives showing the drive name, storage capacity, and RAID level
The drive mappings to the servers showing the drive numbers for each drive on
the server
The storage control module affinity for each virtual drive.
To access the Storage Layout report, click Reports > Storage Layout in the left
navigation panel.
You can switch between the graphical and table views by clicking on the link at the top of
the report.
Note:
The Physical drives and Server columns represent the physical slots for hard drives and
servers. If a drive is not present, it will be marked as not present.
The Storage Layout graphics in
Figure 65
and
Figure 66
illustrate both the graphical and
tabular views for the following storage configuration:
Fourteen physical drives present in the system.
Drives 1, 2, and 3 are grouped together in a single storage pool named “Storage
Pool 1”.
Drive 14 is a global hot spare.
Drives 4 - 13 are available/unused.
One storage pool is present. The storage pool is named “Storage Pool 1” and is 100.58
GB in size.
Two virtual drives are present. One virtual drive is named “Finance” and is configured
as a 25-GB RAID 0 drive. The second virtual drive is named “Marketing” and is
configured as a 30-GB RAID 0 drive.
The virtual drive “Finance” is assigned to Server 1 as Drive 0. The virtual drive
“Marketing” is assigned to Server 2 as Drive 0.
