Table 24 Cartridges Capacity Table

The barcode of the cartridges in the library. The barcode
name is a link to display the capacity information about
the cartridge.

Barcode

Total storage capacity allocated to the Cartridge.

Allocated Capacity

The size of all backup data currently retained and visible
to the backup application.

Logical Data

The physical storage capacity consumed in the cartridge.

Used Capacity

The ratio of Logical Data to Used Capacity.

Ratio

NOTE:

The Used Capacity value for some cartridges may be greater than the Logical Data. This

can be due to relabeling of a cartridge that consumes 32 MB of physical space. The Extent Size
of a relabeled cartridge is fixed at 32 MB. This is added to the Used Capacity value of the relabeled
cartridge, even when the cartridge has no data.

See

“Viewing Additional Information about a Cartridge” (page 142)

for detailed cartridge capacity

utilization.

Performance and Storage Use Reports

You can customize and view current status, performance, and storage use reports for the entire
VLS, for individual nodes, and for selected devices in Command View VLS. You can also view
information on the overall health of the SAN.

You can generate and display the reports online, or export the report data in a comma-separated
values (CSV) file-format; see

. You can also set up automated reports that the

system emails to you on a regular basis; see

Determine the information you want exported and select the Export (or similar) button. The File
Download window opens for you to indicate where to save the file.

The CSV export file is a text file delivered as a .zip. Each line is the record for one device, and
the data fields are separated by commas or columns depending on the program used to view the
file.
