Computer Views - By Filesystem/Logical Volume

Use this report to view the relationships between the filesystems/logical volumes and the storage subsystems, LUNs, and disks in your environment. Reports can be generated for ESS subsystems as well as IBM SAN Volume Controller clusters.

To generate a report for the relationship you want to view, select an item from the Relate Filesystems/Logical Volumes to: field on the Selection tab. The Selection tab appears when you left-click the Reporting --> Storage Subsystems --> Computer Views --> By Filesystem/Logical Volume node. For more information about this tab, see Selecting an Object.

The following section describes the fields that appear on the report based on the options selected on the Selection tab.

Storage Subsystem

The following fields appear on the By Filesystem/Logical Volume report if you selected Storage Subsystems from the Relate Filesystems/Logical Volumes to: field on the Selection tab. Use this report to view information about filesystem/logical volumes consuming space on storage subsystems.

Field Name

Description

Computer

name of a computer using space on a storage subsystem or IBM SAN Volume Controller

Filesystem or Logical Volume Path

name or path of a filesystem/logical volume using space on a storage subsystem or IBM SAN Volume Controller

Capacity

total usable storage capacity of a filesystem or logical volume

Freespace

amount of storage space available on a filesystem or logical volume

Storage Subsystem

name/alias of a storage subsystem hosting a filesystem/logical volume

Storage Subsystem Type

type of storage subsystem, such as IBM ESS

LUNs

The following fields appear on the By Filesystem/Logical Volume report if you selected LUNs from the Relate Filesystems/Logical Volumes to: field on the Selection tab. Use this report to view information about filesystem/logical volumes consuming space on LUNs.

LUN name (disk array)

name assigned to a LUN by a storage subsystem

 

Disks

The following fields appear on the By Filesystem/Logical Volume report if you selected Disks from the Relate Filesystems/Logical Volumes to: field on the Selection tab. Use this report to view information about filesystem/logical volumes consuming space on storage subsystems disks.

Field Name

Description

name/alias of a storage subsystem containing the disk or the IBM SAN Volume Controller managing the disk

Storage Subsystem Type

type of storage subsystem, such as IBM ESS

Manufacturer

name of the manufacturer of a disk

Model

model number of a disk

Serial Number

serial number of a disk

Computer

name of a computer using space on a disk

Filesystem or Logical Volume Path

name or path of a filesystem/logical volume consuming space on the disk

Capacity

total usable storage capacity of a filesystem or logical volume

Freespace

amount of storage space available on a filesystem or logical volume

Physical Allocation

total amount of disk space consumed (overhead + capacity)
