Hosts to Pools page in the Hosts view
The Hosts to Pools page in the Hosts view enables you to get more information about the storage pool associated to the host and more especially:
- the name and type of the storage pool
- the RAID level of the volume
- the service level
- the number of volumes.
To access the page, in the Helix Continuous Optimization Dashboard, click Capacity > Storage > Hosts, and in the Hosts view page, click the Hosts to Pools tab.
Metrics per host are displayed in a tabular format.
By default, some columns are hidden. You can show or hide columns using the action menu
that is located next to the table title.
Each row in the table represents a host and displays the following metrics, which are computed from the Hosts to Volumes page.
Host-related metrics are not available when the option Disabled and Collected for metric computation (Default) are selected in the ETL additional settings. Refer to Customizing Volumes and Shares Monitoring for more information.
Column | Description | Statistical Type | Metrics |
|---|---|---|---|
Host | Name of the host. Depending on the information available, the value will either be the entity name, the collected host name or the collected WWN or IQN. | Not applicable | Grouping criteria from Hosts to Volumes |
| Storage System | Name of the storage system. | Not applicable | SA_CONTAINS_SP |
| Vendor | System vendor. | Not applicable | ST_SYSTEM_VENDOR |
| Storage Pool | Name of the storage pool associated to the volume. | Not applicable | NAME |
| Pool Type | Type of the storage pool associated to the volume. | Not applicable | ST_POOL_TYPE |

| Pool Service Level | Level of service required. This information is not collected by the storage connectors but specified by the Administrator from the Workspace or a dedicated ETL. | Not applicable | ST_POOL_SERVICE_LEVEL |
| Number of Volumes | Number of volumes of the storage pool that are actually mapped to the host. | Not applicable | Count of volumes for the Storage Pool that have the same Hostname |
| Consumed Capacity [GB] | Capacity actually consumed in Gigabytes. | Average on the latest day | Sum of BYHOST_SIZE for the storage pools that share the same Host |
| Host Visible Capacity [GB] | Amount of capacity exposed to the host (i.e. subscribed capacity) in Gigabytes. | Not applicable | Sum of BYHOST_ALLOCATED for the storage pools that share the same Host |
To find a specific host
