Surrounding text describes browse_storage.gif.

To access this page, click Physical then Storage from the Top menu.

Note that not all menu options appear on this screen for all users. The options depend on the rights assigned.

The Exploring Page for the top level (called "Storage") is displayed.Use the links on this page to navigate within the storage space hierarchy.

Element Description
Storage Name The name of the storage location. Click the link to display a new Exploring Page which lists the storage locations contained in the selected storage location. This functionality enables a user to move down to the lower levels of the storage space hierarchy.
Location Type The type of the storage location. The available location types are defined by an administrator.
Description The description of the storage location, as specified when the location was defined.
Status The current status of the storage location.

A status is displayed only for storage locations that can hold content items. If a storage location cannot hold content at that level, the status column is empty.

Space Used The occupancy percentage of the storage location and all its children. For example, 25% indicates one-quarter of the maximum allowed number of items that can be stored in the storage location (and all its children) is currently assigned to the location.
Action Menu The available menu options depend on the storage location in the row, and may include:

To access this page, click Physical then Storage from the Top menu. The Location Page for the top level of the storage hierarchy is displayed.

Navigate to the storage location. Click Information then Storage Information from the item's Action menu.

A storage location's ability to hold content depends on its assigned Location Type and applies to that particular level only. For example, in the default hierarchy, shelves have several positions, each of which can hold content items, but no content items can be directly assigned to the shelf level (only to the positions on a shelf). Therefore, the location type 'Shelf' cannot store content, whereas the type 'Position' can.

Important:

By default, the available storage space is recalculated daily at midnight. Therefore, the displayed storage availability information may not be entirely up to date as the day progresses since it still reflects the situation from the night before. The administrator may force a recalculation of the storage space availability at any time.

For each field selected and moved to the Search Fields box, a checkbox appears below the fields section. Check the box to further refine if the sorting for that field should be in ascending order. If not checked, sort order is descending.

  • To screen for content items due for review, indicate a review date by which the review must be performed in the Review Due By box.
