Navigating the Main Window The Logical Devices View When you select the iSCSI Storage Appliance in the Enterprise View, the pools and logical devices associated with that appliance appear in the Logical Devices View. (A pool is a collection of disk drives combined in a RAID set. A logical device is created within a pool and is seen as a single iSCSI target.) This appliance is connected to... ...one controller and four disk drives... ...from which one pool has been created. The RAID level of a logical device is indicated by the number inside the logical device's icon. For instance, the logical device shown at right has RAID 1. Pools protected by hot spares have plus signs (+) beside them, as shown at right. With tool tips enabled (see page 135), hold your cursor over any pool to see its name and size; hold your cursor over any logical device to see its name, size, and status. You can also click the arrow, shown at right, to view this same information for all pools or logical devices at the same time. Select a pool to highlight the disk drives that comprise it in the Physical Devices View, and the logical device created from it in the Logical Devices View. The selected pool includes four disk drives and has been used to create three logical devices. You can also select any disk drive to see which (if any) pool it belongs to. A disk drive shaded in light blue is not part of any pool. 56 Snap Server 700i Series User's Guide
