Containers

Containers

To display the Containers page, click Storage→ Containers. This page displays the total number of containers (Number of Containers) and the container path (Container Path: /containers). On this page, you can perform the following tasks:

Create — Create new containers
•
Edit — Edit existing containers
•
Delete — Delete existing containers
•
Display Statistics — Display container, connection, and replication statistics

The Containers page also displays a Containers summary table that displays the following types of container-related information:

•
Containers — lists containers by name
•
Files — lists the number of files in each container
•
Marker Type — lists the marker type that supports your DMA
•
Access Protocol — lists the connection type/access protocol per container:
◦
Network File System (NFS)
◦
Common Internet File System (CIFS)
◦
Rapid Data Access (RDA)
◦
Network Data Management Protocol (NDMP) (for VTL containers)
◦
Internet Small Computer System Interface (iSCSI) (for VTL containers)
•
Replication — lists the current replication state per container:
◦
Not Configured
◦
Stopped
◦
Disconnected
◦
Trying to Connect
◦
Online
◦
N/A
◦
Marked for Deletion
 
NOTE: For newly created OST or RDS containers, the Replication status displays N/A. When replication data has been deleted from an existing OST or RDS container, the Replication status also displays N/A. For existing containers that are in the process of deleting a large amount of data, the Replication status displays Marked for Deletion to indicate that the data deletion process has not yet completed.
 
NOTE: Use Select to identify the container on which you want to perform an action. For example, click Select, and click Display Statistics to display the Container Statistics page for the container you selected.

•
Edit or delete an existing replication relationship.
•
Start or stop replication.
•
Set the bandwidth (or speed limit) for the replication process.
•
Display statistics for an existing replication relationship.

The Replication page contains a Replication summary table that lists the following replication-related information:

•
Source Container Name—SRC container name (IP address or hostname)
•
Replica Container Name—Target in the replication process (IP address or hostname)
•
Cascaded Replica Container Name—Remote container name (IP address or hostname) (optional)
•
Bandwidth—Settings include Kibibytes per second (KiB/s), Mebibytes per second (MiB/s), Gibibytes per second (GiB/s), or default (an unlimited bandwidth setting)
 
NOTE: Mouse over status for Peer State—Online, Offline, Paused, or Disconnected. When started the Peer State displays the status as Online for the selected container. When stopped, the Peer State initially displays the status as Paused, and then changes to Offline.
