5 Monitoring storage
ASM provides storage-management functions so you can quickly view used and allocated storage,
and percent full warning thresholds settings for application and shared folder storage on your HP
Storage System. You have a choice of these views for the content pane:
• Application View , page 47—Monitoring the overall used and allocated storage values for specific
applications and shared folders (such as Exchange or SQL Server storage)
• Storage View , page 60—Monitoring the used and allocated storage values for the logical disks
and volumes on your HP Storage System that ASM created to host application storage and shared
folders.
• Application Server View , page 63—Monitoring the application servers with storage hosted on
your HP Storage System.
• Storage Utilization View , page 65—Monitoring the allocated storage values for specific applications
and the shared folders pool, the unallocated storage value, and the storage value for data not
managed by ASM.
Views are selected from the Actions pane.
You can also quickly view storage status on the content pane. Status icons for warnings and critical
conditions are displayed on top of icons in the content pane when storage status changes from OK
to Warning or Critical.
NOTE:
Select an item in the content pane and then click Properties in the Actions pane to view any alerts for
the item.
IMPORTANT:
During the ASM discovery process, if ASM detects a user-defined storage area that hosts SQL or
Exchange data and the proper credentials have been set between ASM and the application server,
these user-defined storage areas are moved to SQL or Exchange storage areas as appropriate. For
more information about setting application credentials between ASM and application servers, see
“
Configure Application Credentials ” on page 10.
Application View
Application View displays the used and allocated storage space, and storage status of applications
and shared folders hosted on your HP Storage System in the content pane.
• In the Actions pane, select Application View.
• To view all the application storage and shared folders hosted on your HP Storage System in the
content pane, select Show all from the Filter drop-down menu, located at the top of the content
