Asset Reporting - System Wide Overview
Asset reporting system wide enables you to:
- view your storage assets as a whole, across the entire system. Thess reports
enable you to get lists of all of your disks, all of your computers, all of
your fileystems, as well as viewing aggregated reports based upon certain
filters, such as grown defects per disk.
- view detailed information about Data agents. Use these reports to monitor
your agents and keep track of their status.
Note: Some of these reports will contain inaccurate information if the following configuration is used:
- an IBM SAN Volume Controller is used to virtualize a disk array subsystem
- you have configured Data Manager to access the CIM/OMs of both an IBM SAN Volume Controller and the disk array subsystems
In this situation, Disks and LUNs will appear to belong to both the
IBM SAN Volume Controller and the disk array subsystem, and will be counted
twice in system-wide reports. To avoid this situation, CIM/OM access should
be set up for either the IBM SAN Volume Controller or for the disk array
subsystems which it virtualizes. This issue does not apply to ESS and
IBM FastT subsystems.
You can view system wide reports by:

Disk/Volume Groups
Disks
File Systems/Logical Volumes
Export/Shares
Monitored Directories
