Storage view

The Storage view is a tree view. It lists the server volumes and cluster volumes existing in your environment, and shows their severity state.

This view appears in the Quick-View on the left when you select the Storage tile in the Virtual Environment view.

Figure 118. Storage view

Selecting the All Storage node displays the overall resource utilization for all volumes in your integrated system and identifies the ones that consume the highest amount of system resources in the Summary - All Storage view on the right. Similarly, selecting a storage node shows storage-specific metrics in the Volume Summary view.

Alarm severity. The state of the most recent alarm raised against the volume.
All Storage. A parent node for the instances of all volumes that appear in this view.
Server Storage. The parent node for the instances of all server storage.
SMB Storage. The parent node for the instances of all SMB storage.
Cluster Storage. The parent node for the instances of all cluster storage.
Storage Pool. The parent node for the instances of all storage pools.
