Pausing and resuming an S Series storage component

When an S Series storage component is in use, you can pause it at any time. Pausing the component makes it inaccessible for all read and write operations and for storage tiering. After you resume the component, it becomes available again for read and write operations and for tiering.

Procedure

  1. Go to the Storage Components page.

  2. Click an S Series Node.

    The Storage Node page opens.
  3. Click the Manage tab.

  4. Click Pause Component.

    After the storage component is paused, the button is replaced with Resume Component.

  5. To resume communication between HCP and the storage component, click Resume Component.
