EMC Ionix ControlCenter 6.1: Taking Control of Your Datacenter
Configuring and Controlling Your Datacenter
Determining if configured storage is available
The administrator uses Free Space view and Properties view to determine if
configured storage is available on the Symmetrix array.
To do this, the administrator:
1. On the taskbar, clicks the pull-down menu on the blue Storage Allocation button
and selects Free Space.
2. In the Console tree, expands the folders Storage Systems, Symmetrix, and selects
the checkbox beside Symmetrix array 000187461272.
Figure 112 Free Space view showing available unmapped storage
The Free Space view shows that there is not enough available unmapped storage. The
administrator will configure additional storage on this array to meet their
requirements.
The administrator now splits the target panel horizontally using Alt-Shift-h, clicks the
Properties view button, and drags the array into the Properties view to confirm that
unconfigured storage is available on the array (Figure 113). There is 331.64 GB of
unconfigured storage available.
