Managing resource labels
This module describes how to manage resource labels.
About managing resource labels
User defined resource labels can be assigned to volumes and THP/Smart pools. Specifically, resource
labels can be volume labels, or THP/Smart pool names.
Resource labels help users:
• Search for volumes or THP/Smart pools
• Differentiate between listed volumes or THP/Smart pools
• Confirm the correct resource is being acted upon
When resources are located with a label search, tasks can be performed including:
• Allocating volumes or THP/Smart pools
• Editing volume LUN paths
Note that resource labels can be created using:
• Device Manager
• Remote Web Console
For storage systems where resource labels have already been configured using Remote Web Console,
you can apply (import) the resource labels to Device Manager in a batch operation.
