the pool status changes to Warning. You cannot create new XP Snapshot pairs to the pool in
Warning status. Be careful not to set too small a value for the threshold.

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

box.

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 StorageWorks XP24000 Remote Web Console User’s Guide.
