Preventing a space shortage on a host logical volume 89
Monitoring Your Datacenter
Following the company’s procedures, the administrator first acknowledges the alert in
the Alerts view to indicate that someone is addressing the issue. In the Alerts view,
the administrator right-clicks the alert, selects Acknowledge Alert, enters a brief note
in the dialog box, and clicks OK to close it.
To diagnose the free space alert, the administrator:
1. Clicks the horizontal split-screen icon in the Alerts view to create a new view.
2. Clicks Relationship on the Console toolbar to change the view type of the new
view.
3. Drags the host from the Alerts view to the Relationship view.
The Relationship view shows how the host logical volumes map back to the array
devices (Figure 64).

4. Right-clicks the volume in the Relationship view and selects Properties to find out
the actual free space available on the volume.
