Colors
The connections are color coded to help identify interconnected elements.
NOTE: The actual colors shown do not imply any specific meaning. The colors are provided to
help you understand the connections from virtual to physical devices.
Focus links
Clicking a Focus link simplifies the display by showing only the item that was clicked and the
elements that are directly attached to it:
•
Focusing on a VM or vPar shows the virtual storage interfaces in the VM or vPar and all the
logical storage devices, physical interface cards, and devices that back them.
•
Focusing on a virtual storage interface is like focusing on a VM or vPar, except that only the
selected virtual storage interface and its connections are shown; all others are hidden.
•
Focusing on a logical storage device shows all of the virtual storage devices and all of the
physical storage interface cards and devices connected to it.
•
Focusing on a physical storage interface card shows only the physical devices attached to
the card, the logical storage devices connected to the physical device, and the virtual storage
devices connected to those logical storage devices.
•
Focusing on a physical storage device shows only the logical and virtual devices using that
physical storage. This might reduce the number of devices shown, depending on how many
virtual devices and VMs or vPars are connected to the physical storage device.
•
In a focused view, the presence of additional devices or connections is shown by either an
ellipsis, or a solid line becoming a dotted line.
•
To view all the storage devices again, use the Show All link.
Dotted lines
The black vertical dotted line indicates the boundary between the virtual and physical devices.
A colored vertical dotted line indicates devices are present but not associated with the indicated
VM or vPar. For example, a three-dotted vertical line inside a box indicates that other storage
devices are attached to the host bus adapter but are not used by the VM or vPar (in other words,
other VMs or vPars are using those devices).
