Threshold Monitoring of Used Capacity
When the used capacity of an FTRP or an FTV reaches the threshold, an alarm notification can be sent from
ETERNUS SF Storage Cruiser. There are two types of thresholds: "Attention" and "Warning". A different value
can be specified for each threshold type.
Make sure to add drives before free space in the FTRP runs out, and add FTSP capacity from ETERNUS SF
Storage Cruiser.

FTRP Thresholds
There are two FTRP usage thresholds: Attention and Warning.

FTV Thresholds
There is only one FTV usage threshold: Attention. If there is insufficient capacity for the FTV unallocated
space in the pool free space, an alarm notification is sent. The threshold is determined by the ratio of free
space in the FTSP and the unallocated FTV capacity.

Caution
•
When the Flexible Tier function is enabled, 64 work volumes (physical capacity is 0MB) are created.
The maximum number of volumes that can be created in the ETERNUS AF decreases by the number
of work volumes that are created.
•
The FTRP capacity that can be used for VVOLs differs from the maximum Thin Provisioning Pool
capacity. For details, refer to
