Storage Array | The name given to the storage array. |
Span Instance Name | The name that was assigned to the span when it was created. |
Is Healthy | Indicates if the server has I/O with the filesystems. Yes = the server can do I/O to the filesystems on the span. If storage-based mirroring is implemented, a failed secondary does not impact the good I/O health, because a span can support I/O as long as all its primaries are healthy. |
# Tiers | Number of tiers associated with the span. |
Total Capacity | Total capacity of the span. Values are stored in the database as KiB and rendered according to your user profile preferences. |
Used | Used capacity of the span. |
Usage | Percentage of the span that is used space, unallocated to filesystems. |
# Sets | Number of sets associated with the span. Click the value to view the Hitachi NAS System Drive Summary. Note that a single set could have more than one system drive and therefore the drilldown report may return more rows than indicated by the value in this field. |
# Filesystems | Number of filesystems associated with the span. |
# Mirrored SDs | Number of mirrored system drives. Click the value to view the Hitachi NAS System Drive Summary. |
# Chunks | Number of chunks contained in the span. Storage is allocated in chunks (small allocations of each stripe set, of relatively equal size) from the span (storage pool) to filesystems. When a file system is created or expanded, the server always allocates a whole number of chunks. Chunks can be allocated as needed, supporting thin provisioning, or preallocated at file system creation. |
Chunk Size | The guideline or approximate size of each chunk. Chunks are close to, but not always exactly the same size. This size controls how much capacity will be allocated to a filesystem at one time. |
Auto Expand | Indicates if a span is auto-expandable: Y or N. |
