You can change the group configuration defaults and initial settings. You can also add members to a group to
expand group capacity and improve performance.
Displaying the Group summary
The Group Summary window appears when you first start the Group Manager GUI or when you click the group
name at the top of the far-left panel.
Figure 5-1: Group Summary Window
The Group Summary window displays the basic group configuration and resources in the following panels:
• Group information panel – Shows a summary of grou
p parameters and resource use
• Group disk space panel – Shows how the group is using space. Yo
u can display details about the space by
selecting from the radio button options.
Note: The group free space might not be
precise because the GUI uses a rounding algorithm to calculate free
space. To display the actual free space in megabytes, you must use the CLI. Enter the
cli-settings
displayinMB
on command. Then enter the show command to display the free group space. See the
CLI Reference manual.
• Storage pools and Group members – Shows storage pools in the gro
up, with details of pool capacity and used
space. See About storage pools on page
7-1.
See the online help for information about the data fields and options.
