Custom groups navigation path
The Custom Groups node comprises of individual custom groups that display the associated LDEVs.
Following is the component selection path:
• Custom Groups > Individual custom group > LDEVs (component type) > Individual LDEVs
The serial numbers of the XP and the P9000 disk arrays to which the LDEVs belong are also
mentioned in brackets beside the LDEV IDs. You can create a custom group that has multiple LDEVs
from different XP and P9000 disk arrays. For more information on creating custom groups, see
“Creating custom groups” on page 104.
