View volumes associated with OR director
A storage volume is an identifiable unit of data storage. Storage groups are sets of volumes.
About this task
Steps
- Select a storage system running PowerMaxOS 10 (6079).
- Select System > Hardware.
- Click the OR Directors tab.
-
Select an OR director and click
to open its
Details view.
-
Click the number next to
Volumes to open the
Volumes list view.
Use the Volumes list view to view and manage the volumes in a storage group.
