HP P9000 Tiered Storage Manager Software 7.4.1-00 CLI Reference Guide (TB585-96029, April 2013)

4 Filter conditions that can be used in the
CLI
This chapter provides an overview of the filter condition expressions that can be specified for the
filtercondition parameter and the newfiltercondition parameter, and describes the syntax
and properties that can be specified for filter condition expressions.
Types of filter conditions
For CLI commands that have access to the filtercondition parameter or the
newfiltercondition parameter, filter condition expressions can be specified to limit the command
execution scope, or to use the filtered results to manage storage tiers.
Filter condition expressions are specified by combining properties. Properties in this chapter refer to
comparison-predicate values in the filter condition expressions described in Syntax of filter
condition expressions on page 36.
The following table describes the types of filter condition expressions.

Specifiable properties
Description and commands that
have access to the filter
Filter name and function
The properties to specify differ depending
on the target (volume or pool) managed
by the storage tier.
If the filter targets are volumes, see
Table 5 and Table 8.
Note that some properties might not
be specifiable for filter conditions that
are used to filter volumes managed
in storage tiers.
If the filter targets are pools, see Table
6 and Table 9.
Filter condition expressions for
volumes and pools in storage tiers
Because a storage tier cannot
manage both volumes and pools
at the same time, volume filter
conditions and pool filter conditions
cannot be specified at the same
time.
Commands that have access to this
filter type:
CreateStorageTier
ModifyStorageTier
