Click the [OK] button.

End of procedure
This function cannot be used under the following conditions:
•
No TPPs can be formatted
•
The status of the TPPs that are to be formatted is "
Available".
•
The TPP includes a volume that is used for the Storage Cluster function
•
TPPs in "
Partially Readying", or "
Readying" status can be formatted. Data stored in the TPVs of the
target TPP are not deleted. The "Unformatted area" is a new area that is added to a TPP by the capacity
expansion function.
•
This function is only used when an error occurs during TPP capacity expansion and the expanded area
cannot be formatted. When TPP capacity is successfully expanded, the TPP is automatically formatted. In
this case, it is not necessary to format the TPP by using this function.
•
To check the progress of formatting ("Progress", "Estimated Time Left", and "Remaining Size"), refer to
"Thin Provisioning Pool Detail (Basic)" in "ETERNUS Web GUI User’s Guide (Operation)". Click the TPP
