Monitoring Your Datacenter
Locating additional free space
Because the logical volume free space has fallen below the fatal threshold, the
Windows administrator decides to act immediately and find additional free space.
To find additional free space for the logical volume, the administrator:
1. Closes the Properties view.
2. Drags the top of the Relationship view up to better see the view’s contents.
3. Expands the Devices for l82ar154 folder.
The administrator notices that there are several array devices that are already
mapped to the host. These devices might be available for extending the logical
volume. The icons in the Relationship view indicate the device types.
4. Highlights several standard devices by clicking, pressing and holding the Ctrl key,
and clicking additional devices.
5. Right-clicks one of the highlighted devices and selects Properties.
A new Properties view opens. The highlighted devices are added to the view
(Figure 66).
