About checking system status in the dashboard

The HP XP7 Command View Advanced Edition dashboard shows a summary of tasks, alerts, and
activities of registered storage systems.

Storage System Alerts: A list of links for each registered storage system and the associated alerts.
You can choose particular severity levels of alerts to be collected in the Storage System Alerts report
by clicking the tool icon in the application pane.

Datacenter Utilization - Physical capacities: A bar chart that provides volume capacity information
for Open-Allocated, Open-Unallocated, Open-Reserved, Mainframe, and Free volumes. This chart
applies to all of the managed storage systems, collectively. Because capacities are calculated
based on actual volume capacities, the capacity of virtual volumes, such as THP/Smart volumes,
is not included.

Failed CVAE Tasks: A list of failed CVAE tasks submitted by you or other users. Each item includes
the task name, task type, and description for the failed task. Clicking the Task column link for a
task that you submitted allows you to view task details, including error messages. You may not
view task details for tasks that you did not submit.

Failed System Tasks: A list of failed System tasks submitted by you or other users. Each item includes
the task name, task type, and description for the failed task. Clicking the Status column link for a
task that you submitted allows you to view the processing status.

Top 10 Consumers: A list of the ten hosts having the largest combination of allocated physical and
virtual storage capacity.
• The Capacity column reports (capacity of basic volumes + reserved capacity of THP/Smart

volumes).

• The Used Capacity column reports (capacity of basic volumes + used capacity of THP/Smart

volumes).

• File System Used Capacity indicates the file system space used by hosts as (the total value

calculated from File system Used % for each volume).
