Service information messages (SIMs) report the status of Dynamic Provisioning V-VOLs and pools when specific events occur. If an event associated with a pool occurs, a SIM and an SNMP trap are reported.
An example of a SIM condition is when the used capacity of a pool reaches or exceeds the warning threshold set for the pool. For example, if the warning threshold is set to 50% and the used capacity of the pool reaches or exceeds 50%, a SIM and an SNMP trap are reported.
This table lists and describes the SIM reference codes associated with Dynamic Provisioning operations and provides solutions for the conditions.

Perform one of the following actions to increase free space in the pool:
|
62B000 (Moderate) |
In the Dynamic Provisioning pool, the used capacity reserved for writing continues to exceed the highest pool threshold. SOM 734 must be enabled. If SOM 734 is set to ON, the SIM is output every eight hours. |

If a deduplication system data volume is associated with the pool of the selected DP-VOLs, take the following actions.
|
681xxx (Moderate) xxx = hexadecimal pool number |
Deduplication system data volumes cannot be deleted. Failure occurred while deleting the deduplication system data volumes, then the processing terminated abnormally. |
None |
Yes |
No |
Take the following actions:
|
682000 (Moderate) |
Deduplication system data volumes cannot be deleted from the pool, and the deleting process is stopped. |
None |
Yes |
No |
Verify the configuration information, and then take the following actions.
|
* If you delete DP-VOLs for which the compression accelerator function setting is compression only or duplication and compression, the deletion processing might increase the pool usage. |
