7-6 Storage Group Operations
The system administrator, storage administrator, local system administrator, and local storage administrator
can perform storage group operations. Guest and local guest users can only view the storage group
information.
A Device Manager storage group is a user-defined set of LUNs that can be manipulated as a group. When you
view the contents of a storage group, you can view property information on the selected storage group and
information on the LDEVs managed under that storage group. You can add, remove, and move storage in a
storage group, and you can change the security properties of a storage group.
Device Manager storage group operations include:
•
Viewing the contents of storage groups (see section
7-6-1
)
•
Adding storage to a storage group (see section
7-6-2
)
•
Moving storage from one group to another (see section
7-6-3
)
•
Modifying LUN security for a group (see section
7-6-4
)
•
Removing storage from a group (see section
7-6-5
)
•
Deleting a storage group (see section
7-6-6
)
NOTE:
For instructions on creating storage groups, see section
7-3
.
NOTE:
When an error occurs during a storage group operation, Device Manager might ask you to perform
the Refresh operation. If you do not have Refresh privileges (if you are a local system administrator or local
storage administrator), ask the Device Manager system administrator or storage administrator to perform the
Refresh operation.
NOTE:
Regarding Display of Capacity: The rules for calculating the capacity and the display format are as
follows, unless otherwise specified in the description of items.
•
The capacity is calculated in kilobytes.
•
The unit of display changes according to the capacity. If the capacity is less than 1 GB, the capacity is displayed in
MB. If the capacity exceeds 1 GB, the MB display changes to the GB display. If the capacity exceeds 1 TB, the GB
display changes to the TB display.
•
For the MB display, the fractional portion of the value is truncated. For the GB and TB displays, the value is truncated
to two decimal places.
