Using custom group filters
You can also use the following custom group filters to view specific set of LDEV records in the Custom
Groups table:
• Arrays: Array Names list
• Hosts list
• ACPs list
• Ports list
• RAID Groups list
The selection in each filter is independent of the selection in other filters. Example, if Array_1 is selected
from the Arrays: Array Names list, the Ports and ACPs lists are not updated to display only the ports
and ACPs that belong to Array_1. They still display all the ports and the ACPs that belong to all the
monitored XP and P9000 disk arrays.
To filter and view specific set of LDEV records:
1. Select the values from the above-mentioned custom group filters and click Filter.
The existing set of LDEV records are filtered based on the filter criteria and displayed in the
Custom Groups table.
Click Clear Filter, if you want to restore the default settings across the Custom Groups filters. This
action also displays all the LDEV records in the Custom Groups table. The Custom Groups screen
is refreshed when you click Clear Filter.
2. Provide a name for the custom group and click Create Custom Group.
