Understanding the storage pool list
The Pools page in the HCP System Management Console lists all storage pools currently defined on the HCP system. You can display this page.
Procedure
In the top-level menu of the HCP System Management Console, click Storage.
On the left side of the Storage page, click Pools.
For each listed pool, the Pools page shows:
Name
The pool name.
Type
The pool type, which can be:
- Amazon S3
- Google Cloud
- HCP S Series
- Microsoft Azure
- NFS
- Primary running
- Primary spindown
- S3 Compatible
Usage
The number of bytes currently used to store objects, parts of multipart objects, chunks for erasure-coded objects, and chunks for erasure-coded parts of objects on storage represented by the pool.
For primary running and S Series storage pools, the number of bytes includes storage occupied by the parts of in-progress multipart uploads that have already been written to the storage represented by the component. The number of bytes does not include storage occupied by replaced parts of multipart uploads, parts uploaded for aborted multipart uploads, or unused parts of completed multipart uploads.
NoteFor an NFS storage pool, the number of bytes shown is the total number of bytes used on the NFS storage in the pool, including bytes used for the OS, non-HCP files, and system overhead.Compliant
Whether the pool is compliant. A green checkmark indicates that the pool is compliant.
A storage pool is considered compliant if it includes at least one compliant component. A service plan is considered compliant if each tier in the plan includes at least one compliant storage pool. Only compliant service plans can be associated with namespaces that are in compliance mode.
In Use
Whether the pool is included in any storage tiers defined a service plan. A green checkmark indicates that the pool is included in at least one tier.
Alerts
If an issue exists with the pool, either a warning icon (
) or an error icon (
), depending on the severity of the issue.
