Screen Item Description:
Snapshot Container |
|
Snapshot Container ID |
A randomly generated identifier for each Snapshot Container. |
Online/Offline |
The status of the Snapshot Container. |
Data Area Section Size |
The size of smallest allocation unit in snapshot data differentials. Similar to data blocks in ordinary storage media. |
Mount Status |
Array status (the status of the RAID array that this Snapshot Container is referring to). |
Current/Max. Media Extent |
The number of RAID volume (LD, LV, or partitions) currently associated with this Snapshot Container and the max. number of volumes allowed. |
Inode Table Entry Size |
Inode refers to the infrastructure table used to organize data differentials, differential locations, and relational information |
Total Number of Inodes in all Media Extents Combined |
Total number of inodes in all storage volumes allocated for a Snapshot Container. |
Number of Inode Allocated |
Number of inodes allocated for snapshot operation. |
Number of Data Area Section in all Media Extents Combined |
Number of Data Area Sections in all storage volumes allocated for a Snapshot Container. |
Number of Data Area Section Allocated |
Number of Data Area Sections consumed for the current snapshot operation. |
Snapshot Set |
|
LD/LV, Partition |
The unique ID of the source volume this Snapshot Set is referring to. |
Activated |
A snapshot image has been created in the Snapshot Set. |
Mount Status |
Array status (the status of the RAID array that this Snapshot Set is referring to). |
Data Block Size |
Data blocks consumed by the Snapshot Images in this Snapshot Set. |
Current Active Snapshot Image ID |
The unique ID(s) of the currently activated Snapshot Image(s). |
Snapshot Image |
|
Activation Sequence Number |
When a snapshot image is activated, it appears as a frozen image that can be mapped to a host LUN. The act of taking a snapshot image actually include creating and activating a snapshot image. The sequence number indicates the image’s positions among a series of snapshot images. |
Activated Actual Time |
Indicates the time when the image was taken. |
Last Modification Time |
The last time when the source volume receives updates and differentials were added to a snapshot image. |
Activation Schedule Time |
Applies to Snapshot Scheduler. The time refers to when the scheduler creates and activates a snapshot image. |
Total Number of Data Block Entries |
The total number of data block entries reserved for a snapshot image. |
Valid Data Block Entries already Filled |
Numbers of data block entries consumed by storing data differentials. |
Total Data Block Entries already Filled |
Numbers of data block entries consumed by data differentials including valid and bad blocks. |
