You can prevent the pool from reaching full capacity by monitoring the pool usage rate.

For more information about checking alerts and checking the details of a SIM, see the System Administrator Guide for your storage system.

For more information about SNMP, see the Hitachi Alert Notification Guide.

  • You must not be decreasing the pool capacity.
  • You must have the Storage Administrator (Provisioning) role.
  • In CCI, use the raidcom modify pool -user_threshold command.
  1. In the Explorer pane, click Storage Systems, expand the storage system tree, and then click Pools.
  2. In the Pools tab, from the list of pools, select the check box for the pool with the warning threshold that you want to change, and then click More Actions > Edit Pools.


  3. In the Edit Pools window of the Edit Pools wizard, complete the following:
    Warning Threshold
    • Enter the data pool warning threshold.
    • Range: 20% - 95%, in 1% increments.
    • Default: 80%
    CAUTION:
    Excessive pool usage rates (rates over 50%) are rounded down to the closest integer. Therefore, excessive pool usage in SIM and SNMP might be reported when the actual pool usage rate exceeds the threshold, even though the value shown is only 50%.
  4. Click Finish, and then confirm the settings.


  5. Accept the default task name or enter a unique name.
    You can enter up to 32 letters, numbers, and symbols, except the following:
