Modifying properties of an existing goal
To modify the properties of an existing goal:

The list of service requests appears under Service Requests in the Navigation tree. When you

2. From the Navigation tree, select the service request that contains the goal to be modified.
3. From the List View pane, select the appropriate goal, then click the Action Properties button at
the bottom of the screen. (Alternatively, right-click the goal and select Properties.)
The goal-specific Goal Properties dialog box appears.
4. Modify the properties of the goal, including the goal description and all aspects of the constraints.
For more information, see the instructions used in the section “Creating a new goal” on page 54.
5. When you have finished modifying the goal properties, click OK.
The status of service requests and goals is indicated in the List View pane, and correspond to the
service request or goal that is selected in the Navigation tree. For a description of the status icons,
see Table 3 on page 59.
Table 3 Fulfillment status icons
StatusIcon
Fulfilled, indicated by a green circle with a white check mark
Unfulfilled, indicated by a gray box with a diagonal white line
Nonconforming, indicated by a red circle with a white “X”
A service request that contains no goals is marked Fulfilled because there are no goals in it that are
Unfulfilled or Nonconforming.
A service request that contains a Nonconforming goal is marked Nonconforming.
Fulfilling a goal
Fulfilling goals is primarily the responsibility of the storage administrator. Goals are fulfilled by matching
each goal within a service request to a volume service in the catalog. In the pre-populated use model,
goals are matched to the volume services that are already present in the catalog. Goals are fulfilled
automatically by SPM. In the request-based use model, the details of the goal are used by the storage
administrator to create a volume service that matches the goal. Goals are fulfilled manually. To create
volume services, see “Importing a volume service” on page 35.
To fulfill a goal:
1. From the Navigation tree, under Service Requests, select the service request in which the goal
resides.
The goals in the service request are listed in the List View pane.
2. Click on the goal in the List View pane, then click the Actions Fulfillment button. (Alternatively,
right-click the goal and select Fulfillment.)
