The report shows that there is 2635.24 GB configured, 2575.61 GB allocated, and
331.64 GB unconfigured storage available. Since the administrator needs 120 GB of
storage for the new host, there is enough additional storage on this array to meet their
requirements.
Determining if type of connection is available
The administrator uses the Topology view in the Ionix ControlCenter Console to verify
that Fibre Channel connections to the array exist.
To determine if the required connections exist, the administrator:
1. Clicks the Topology button on the Console toolbar.
2. In the Console tree, expands the folders Storage Systems, Symmetrix. The
Symmetrix arrays appear.
3. Drags the array (000187400075) into the Topology view (Figure 107).
The administrator turned on Show Links to see the cabling that is in place for this
fabric. The administrator is using WWN zoning and will need to create a zone and
add it to the zone configuration for the Mainstreet_3800 fabric.
