Capacity Manager > Available or Reclaimable Storage > Suspected De-provisioned Hosts
Sometimes LUNs have been assigned to a host, but later, that host is re-assigned or de-provisioned. Often when hosts are retired, their storage is not given back to the pool and that storage remains unused.
Capacity Manager identifies suspected de-provisioned hosts by determining data staleness—that is, finding hosts for which data has not been collected within the specified time period. The default period is 14 days, however, you can choose from 3 days to a year for the report’s time period. Hosts in this list deserve further investigation to determine if they truly have been de-provisioned.
