Monitoring total THP-VOL subscription for a pool
You can configure the Subscription Limit of total THP-VOL capacity to pool capacity. This prevents
a new THP-VOL capacity that exceeds the configured subscription limit from being allocated and
is associated to the pool. If you specify more than 100% as the Subscription Limit or the subscription
limit is not set, you must monitor the free capacity of the pool because it is possible that writes to
the THP-VOLs may exceed pool capacity. For details about the Subscription Limit, see
The used value displayed on the cell for Current in the Subscription (%) is truncated after the decimal
point of the calculated value. Therefore, the actual percentage of THP-VOL assigned to the pool
may be larger than the value displayed on the window. If you create a new THP-VOL of the same
size as the existing THP-VOL, the larger size of capacity which is displayed on the Current cell is
necessary.
For example, if 3 GB V-VOL is related to an 11.89 GB pool, the capacity (%) is calculated as
follows:
(3ч11.89)Ч100 = 25.23....(%)
In this case, 25 (%) is displayed on the cell for Current in the Subscription (%). If you create a new
V-VOL of the same size as the existing V-VOL, 26 (%) or more remaining capacity is necessary.
Changing pool thresholds
1.
In the Remote Web Console main window, in the Storage Systems tree, select Pool.
The pool name appears below Pool.
2.
From the Pools table, select the pool with the threshold you want to change.
To select multiple pools that are consecutively listed, highlight all of the pools to be selected
and press the Shift key. To select separate pools, click each pool while pressing the Ctrl key.
3.
Click More Actions, and then select Edit Pools.
4.
In the Edit Pools window, check Warning Threshold or Depletion Threshold.
5.
Type the threshold values in the text box.
The threshold value can be within the range of values indicated below the text box. The
Depletion Threshold value can be equal to or greater than the Warning Threshold.
NOTE:
For a pool where only one user-defined threshold is set, the system assigns the system
threshold (fixed at 80%). The lower value of the single user-defined threshold and the fixed
system threshold are set as the Warning Threshold; the higher value of the two is set as the
Depletion Threshold. After one of the thresholds is changed, the system threshold cannot be
enabled again.
A SIM code is reported when the pool usage capacity exceeds the threshold changes.
