Managing Storage Pools 89
To view the storage pool usage status for each storage subsystem series:
1. In the navigation frame, select Storage Pool. The Storage Pool subwindow is displayed in the method
frame. The Show Properties - Storage Pool subwindow is displayed in the information frame.
2. In the Storage Pool subwindow, choose Analyze Per Series. The Analyze Per Series - Storage Pool
subwindow is displayed in the information frame (see
Figure 5-12).
3. In the Analyze Per Series - Storage Pool subwindow, specify the following items according to the
information you want to view.
View: This item lets you select either of the following items:
• Summary: Displays information on storage pools of the user group, including its child groups, to
which the logged-in user belongs. This is the initial screen of the Analyze Per Series - Storage Pool
subwindow.
• Details: Displays information on storage pools of the groups under the user group to which the
logged-in user belongs. Different from Summary in that you can view only the parent group
information or the child group information rather than both at the same time.
When Details is selected (see
Figure 5-13), the User Group button used to specify a user group and
the Show Information button used to show information are displayed.
4. When Details is selected, set the User Group according to the contents that you want to display. You can
view information on storage pools of the specified user group, including the groups belonging to the user
group. Select a desired user group from the pull-down list.
5. After specifying User Group, click the Show Information button (see
Figure 5-14). The storage pool
information for each storage subsystem series is displayed according to the following scope:
• Storage pool information for the child group contents of the user groups set by User Group
• Storage pool information set by User Group
• Storage information for child groups, including grandchild group content
IMPORTANT: The sum of the storage sizes of new groups and child groups, including the contents
of grandchild groups, equals the sum of new groups, including child groups. However, if there are
multiple child groups, and if the access scope of the child groups overlaps, the contents of new
groups and child groups, including the contents of grandchild groups, is larger than that of new
groups, including child groups. For details, see section
5-1 .
NOTE: When you click the Show Information button of Storage Pool Per Series (Including Size of
Child Groups) - child-group-name, the Analyze Per Series - Storage Pool subwindow toggles
between the child group storage pool information with and without the grandchild group contents.
