• Viewing VDEV and LDEV configuration information
You can view configuration information for VDEVs and LDEVs on the Customized Volume pane

and VDEV numbers and a table of CU:LDEV numbers, emulation types, LDEV capacities, and path
settings of VDEVs selected in the tree.
• Viewing LDEV number setting information
You can view setting information for LDEV numbers for a CU number in a selected parity group
on the Install CV pane (2) (
Figure 94 ), Make Volume pane (2) ( Figure 99 ), and Volume Initialize
pane (1) ( Figure 102 ).
In the table, gray indicates LDEV numbers that are already in use, white indicates unused LDEV
numbers, and blue indicates available LDEV numbers.

Converting logical volumes to space
CAUTION:
The Volume to Space function is a destructive operation. Data on the logical volumes being converted
is lost when the operation is complete. You are responsible for backing up data as needed before
performing this operation.
Use the Volume to Space function to convert one or more logical volumes (LDEVs) to space, which
deletes the selected LDEVs from that VDEV. In other words, the Volume to Space function converts
one or more selected LDEVs (FVs or CVs) in a VDEV into spaces. For more information, see
Volume
to Space function .
1. On the upper right of the XP Remote Web Console main pane, select a CU group from the
drop-down list.
2. From the Customized Volume pane, select the LDEV folder in the Parity Group - LDEV tree to open
a list of VDEVs.
3. In the LDEV Information table, select a VDEV to display detailed information about the LDEVs of
the selected VDEV.
