◦ HP MSA—Unallocated space in the storage pool (cluster) that can be used to meet storage
needs for a snapshot or thin-provisioned volume. The calculation of this value assumes
all unallocated space is formatted the same as this volume. For all other volume types,
no value is displayed.
◦ HP XP P9000/HP XP—P9000 or XP thin provisioning pool capacity.
◦ HP StoreOnce Backup—Not applicable

• Array Disk Emulation Type (HP XP P9000 and HP XP arrays only)—LDEV emulation type.
• Replicated—Specifies whether the disk is replicated
• Physical Device Type—The type of device in the CPG (applies only to HP 3PAR StoreServ).
The types can be FC, NL, or SSD.
• Zero Detection—Detect and discard zeros during volume copying (applies only to HP 3PAR
StoreServ)
• Volume ID—Internal volume ID (applies only to HP 3PAR StoreServ)
• Volume Status—Volume health status (applies only to HP 3PAR StoreServ)
• Drive Speed—Physical drive speed (applies only to HP 3PAR StoreServ)
• Creation Time—Source volume creation time (applies only to HP 3PAR StoreServ)
• Expiration Time—Source volume expiration time (applies only to HP 3PAR StoreServ)
• Retention Time—Source volume retention time (applies only to HP 3PAR StoreServ)
• User Space Warning—Alert threshold for a volume's User CPG (applies only to HP 3PAR
StoreServ)

Viewing virtual disks
The virtual disks page displays the following information:
• Virtual Disk Name—Virtual disk name assigned by VMware
• Virtual Disk Type—Virtual disk type (VMDK or RDM)
• Virtual Machine—Name of the VM associated with the selected VMDK or RDM
• Datastore—Datastore name or the .vmdk name for the RDM
• Provisioned Capacity—Disk capacity visible to a VM using this VMDK or RDM
• Allocated Capacity—Disk capacity reserved by VMware for the VMDK or RDM
For an RDM, this value will match the provisioned capacity value. For a VMDK, this value
might be less than the provisioned capacity value if VMware thin provisioning is used. This
is separate from thin provisioning configured in the storage array.
• VMware Provisioned—Thick or thin
