Label
Description
NAS Volume Name Name of the volume
Size Size of the volume
Unused (Reserved) Space A portion of a thin-provisioned NAS volume that is dedicated to the NAS volume (no
other volumes can take the space). The amount of reserved space is specied by the
storage administrator. Reserved space is used before unreserved space.
Unused (Unreserved) Space Space allocated for the NAS pool that has not been used
Snapshot Space Storage space occupied by snapshots of a NAS volume
Overcommited Space
A portion of a thin-provisioned NAS volume that is not available and not in use by the
NAS volume. The amount of overcommitted space for a NAS volume is: (NAS volume
size) – (NAS volume available space) – (NAS volume used space)
With thin provisioning, storage space is consumed only when data is physically written to
the NAS volume, not when the NAS volume is initially allocated. This provisioning means
more storage space can be allocated to the NAS volumes than has been allocated in the
NAS pool itself.
Volume Folder Name of the NAS volume folder
Used Vs Unused Space Bar charts showing comparison of used space and unused space
