Managing pools and THP V-VOLs
Viewing pool information
1. In the Remote Web Console main window, in the Storage Systems tree, select Pool.
2. View the pool information.
For details about the window for pool information, see “Pools window after selecting pool
(Pools window)” (page 147) and “Top window after selecting a pool volume group under Pool”
(page 151).
Increasing pool capacity
Adding the pool-VOL to the pool created for Thin Provisioning Z increases the pool capacity. The
amount of pool capacity registered in the pool represents the pool capacity. You need to check
the pool free capacity to increase the pool capacity, if required. However, you cannot increase
the pool capacity while it is being shrunk.
If Mixable is set to Enable, note the following when adding a pool-VOL to the pool:
• An internal volume and an external volume whose Cache Mode is set to Disable cannot coexist.
• An external volume whose Cache Mode is set to Enable and an external volume whose Cache
Mode is set to Disable cannot coexist.
