Figure 15 New Pool Dialog Box

The New Pool dialog box displays the following items.

Pool ID text box

You can enter the pool ID in the text box. A whole number from 0 to 127 can be entered in
the text box.

Do not enter a pool ID that is already used by another pool. If you enter a pool ID that is
already used by another pool and click Set, an error message will be displayed. In that case,
enter a different number for the new pool ID.

Threshold drop-down list

You can select the threshold of the pool usage rate between 20 and 95.

The unit of the threshold is percent ( % ). If the pool usage rate exceeds the threshold, the pool
status changes to Warning. You cannot create new XP Snapshot pairs if the pool is in Warning
status. Be careful not to set a very small value for the threshold.

Attribute drop-down list

The program product that uses the pool is displayed. You cannot select the items from this
drop-down list.

Set button

Creates a new pool according to the settings in the New Pool dialog box and closes the dialog
box.

Cancel button

Cancels the settings in the New Pool dialog box and closes the dialog box. No pool will be
created.

Changing the Information for the Pools

After you create a pool, the only setting you can change is the threshold.

To change the threshold of the pool:
1.

Change the mode of the Remote Web Console to Modify.

If the mode is already changed to Modify, you can skip this step. For information on how to
change the mode, see the HP XP24000/XP20000 Remote Web Console User Guide.

2.

Select and right-click the pool whose setting you want to change in the Pool tree of the Pool
window. A menu appears. If the pool usage rate is 95% or higher, the menu will not be
displayed.

3.

Select the Change Pool Information command from the menu. The Change Pool
Information dialog box (
