Tracking cluster usage

The Use Summary, Volume Use, and System Use tabs provide detailed information about provisioning
of volumes and snapshots and space usage in the cluster. See
management" on page 198 for information about the information reported on these tabs.
NOTE:
An overprovisioned cluster occurs when the total provisioned space of all volumes and snapshots is
greater than the physical space available on the cluster. This can occur when there are snapshot
schedules and/or thin-provisioned volumes associated with the cluster.

Editing a cluster

When editing a cluster, you can change the description and add or remove storage systems. You
can also edit or remove the virtual IP and iSNS servers associated with the cluster.

Prerequisite

You must log in to the management group before you can edit any clusters within that group.

Getting there

1. In the navigation window, select the cluster you want to edit.
2. Click Cluster Tasks, and select Edit Cluster.

Adding a new storage system to an existing cluster

Add a new storage system to an existing cluster to expand the storage for that cluster.
NOTE:
Adding a storage system to a cluster causes a restripe of the data in that cluster. A restripe may take
several hours or longer.
Adding a new storage system is not the same as replacing a repaired storage system with a new
one. If you have repaired a storage system and want to replace it in the cluster, see
storage system" on page 184.
