5 Monitoring storage

ASM provides storage-management functions so you can quickly view used and allocated storage,
and percent full warning thresholds settings for application and shared folder storage on your HP
Storage Server. You have a choice of these views for the content pane:

Application View

, page 47—Monitoring the overall used and allocated storage values for specific

applications and shared folders (such as Exchange or SQL Server storage)

Storage View

, page 60—Monitoring the used and allocated storage values for the logical disks

and volumes on your HP Storage Server that ASM created to host application storage and shared
folders.

Application Server View

, page 63—Monitoring the application servers with storage hosted on

your HP Storage Server.

Storage Utilization View

, page 65—Monitoring the allocated storage values for specific applications

and the shared folders pool, the unallocated storage value, and the storage value for data not
managed by ASM.

Views are selected from the Actions pane.

You can also quickly view storage status on the content pane. Status icons for warnings and critical
conditions are displayed on top of icons in the content pane when storage status changes from OK
to Warning or Critical.

NOTE:

Select an item in the content pane and then click

Properties in the Actions pane to view any alerts for the

item.

IMPORTANT:

During the ASM discovery process, if ASM detects a user-defined storage area that hosts SQL or Exchange
data and the proper credentials have been set between ASM and the application server, these user-defined
storage areas are moved to SQL or Exchange storage areas as appropriate. For more information about
setting application credentials between ASM and application servers, see

Configure Application Credentials

” on page 10.
