LDEVs tab


LDEV tab of the Selected Resource Group window

Item

Description

LDEV ID

LDEV identifiers.

Some undefined LDEV IDs might appear. A hyphen (-) in the LDEV name indicates the LDEV is undefined.

LDEV Name

LDEV name.

Parity Group ID

Parity group identifier to which the LDEV belongs.

Pool Name (ID)

Pool name and identifier to which the LDEV belongs.

Capacity

Capacity of each LDEV.

Namespace ID Namespace ID of the LDEV. If the LDEV is not registered as a namespace, a hyphen (-) is displayed.

Provisioning Type

Provisioning type of each volume.
  • Basic: Internal volume
  • DP: DP-VOL
  • External: External volume
  • External MF: Migration volume
  • Snapshot: Thin Image volume
  • ALU: LDEV of the ALU attribution.

Attribute

Attribute of the volume indicating how the LDEV is being used.
  • Command Device: Command device for CCI.
  • Remote Command Device: Remote command device for CCI
  • JNL VOL: Journal volume.
  • Pool VOL: Pool volume. The number in parentheses is the pool identifier.
  • Quorum Disk: Quorum disk for global-active device.
  • Data Direct Mapping: LDEV with the data direct mapping attribute.
  • ALU: LDEV with the ALU attribution.
  • SLU: LDEV with the SLU attribution.
  • Deduplication System Data: LDEV used to manage data deduplication.
  • - (hyphen): LDEV in which the attribute is not defined.

Journal ID

Journal identifier when the attribute is JNL VOL. A hyphen (-) indicates the attribute is other than JNL VOL.

Virtual Storage Machine1

Information about the virtual storage machine.
  • LDEV ID1: Virtual LDEV ID. If a Virtual LDEV ID is not assigned to LDEV, this column is blank. If the setting of the LDEV virtualization management is canceled, Transient is displayed. Failed is displayed on the Status column in the Task window.

    To resolve the transient status, perform one of following operation to LDEVs:

    • Resolve the cause of the failure by confirming the solution of the error message in the Task window. Then retry the same operation by using the Edit Virtualization Management Settings window.

    • In the Edit Virtualization Management Settings window, set Virtual Management Settings to Disable and apply the setting to the storage system.
  • Device Name1: Virtual device name, which is a combination of the virtual emulation type, virtual LUSE volume number, and the virtual CVS attribute. Values of the virtual emulation type, virtual LUSE volume number, and virtual CVS attribute appear only for items that have been set. This column is blank when the virtual emulation type, virtual LUSE volume number, and virtual CVS attribute are not set. If the virtual CVS attribute is set, CVS is attached as the suffix to the device name.
  • SSID1: Virtual SSID. If Virtual SSID is not set for LDEV, this column is blank.
  • Attribute1: Virtual LDEV attribute. If the attribute is not set for LDEV, this column is blank.
