120 EMC Ionix ControlCenter 6.1: Taking Control of Your Datacenter
Configuring and Controlling Your Datacenter
An Oracle DBA has requested 40 GB of RAID 1 storage with local replica for the new
database host. The system administrator determines that they need to find and
allocate a total of 120 GB of space (40 GB for the standard devices, 40 GB for the
mirror devices, and 40 GB for the BCV devices) to meet their RAID protection and local
replica business requirements.
The host and the Symmetrix array are physically connected to the same fabric as
shown in Figure 101.

Determining if there is enough storage on the Symmetrix array
The system administrator needs to find and allocate a total of 120 GB of storage for
the new database host. The administrator creates a custom StorageScope report to
determine the amount of configured, allocated, and unconfigured storage available
on this array.
The administrator uses the most up-to-date data for generating the StorageScope
reports used in this section. Otherwise, the administrator could be basing device
allocation on old data that is no longer valid for this configuration.
To do this, the administrator:
1. Opens a web browser window and enters the following URL:
https://<StorageScope_host_name>:30002/srm
where <StorageScope_host_name > is the name of the host on which StorageScope
is installed.
