Manage a SnapSAN S2000 Pool

To manage a pool, select the pool and then double-click the icon (or select Manage
SnapSAN Pool from the SnapSAN Pools tasks list). This displays the Properties view
of the pool.
The view displays basic pool properties, such as the pool name, size, free space, size of
the replication journal (if present), RAID level, and state. If a disk fails, then a pool
with redundancy (RAID 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, or 60) will go into degraded mode. It will still be
accessible but performance may be reduced and it is vulnerable to loss of data if
another disk fails
This is also the window where the alarms are managed. You have an option of
disabling or muting an alarm in the SnapSAN Pool tasks list.
The table at the bottom of the view gives information on each target linked to the pool.
To see more information, double-click the disk's entry in the table. This opens the
SnapSAN Targets Properties page.
1. Raid 1, 5, 10, or 50 can sustain a single disk failure without data loss; RAID 6 and 60 can sustain two
disk failures before loss occurs.
