Search for volumes or THP/Smart pools

Differentiate between listed volumes or THP/Smart pools

Confirm the correct resource is being acted upon

When resources are located with a label search, tasks can be performed including:

Allocating volumes or THP/Smart pools

Editing volume LUN paths

Note that resource labels can be created using:

Device Manager

Remote Web Console

For storage systems where resource labels have already been configured using Remote Web Console,
you can apply (import) the resource labels to Device Manager in a batch operation.

If Device Manager and Remote Web Console are both actively used, and Command View AE Suite
is the primary management software, labels set in Device Manager can be applied (exported) to
storage systems managed by Remote Web Console. Volume labels can be set when creating or
allocating volumes depending on their use for hosts or applications.

NOTE:

Due to differences between Device Manager and storage systems, incompatible character type or
string length issues will be reported with pop-up messages. Use the message to resolve resource label
naming issues.

TIP:

You can apply any current label to the storage system by specifying the following settings:

For volume labels, select Reflect current labels to the storage systems.

For THP/Smart pool names, select Reflect this pool name to the storage system.
