Monitoring economy and extended storage component and pool usage

The StorageOverview page displays information about economy storage, extended storage, and pool usage. From this page you can find the amount of objects and bytes on your economy and extended storage, the usage of individual components, and the usage of individual storage pools.

The Extended and Economy Storage Statistics panel shows how many objects and bytes are currently in all of your storage components.

The Metadata-only Statistics panel shows how many Metadata-only objects exist on your primary storage as a result of being written directly to economy storage or tiered off to economy and extended storage. The Metadata-only Statistics panel also shows how many bytes of primary storage you save as a result of writing directly to economy storage or tiering to economy or extended storage. Bytes saved is an estimate that does not take into account duplicate elimination or compression.

Note: If you have an active/active replication link, the Metadata-only statistics fluctuates during object replication.

The Component Usage By Capacity section shows the usage, in gigabytes, of individual storage components. The graph incorporates primary, economy, and extended storage, depending on which exist in your HCP system. This information is also presented in a pie chart. Clicking on the primary, economy, or extended storage part of the bar graph or pie chart takes you to that component’s individual overview page.

The Pool Usage By Capacity section shows the usage, in gigabytes, of all storage pools. The graph incorporates primary, economy, and extended storage pools depending on which exist on your HCP system. This information is also presented in a pie chart. Clicking on a primary, economy, or extended storage pool in the bar graph or pie chart takes you to that pool’s individual overview page.
