Disk Shelves
A list of disk shelves, if supported, is displayed at the bottom of the
Maintenance > Hardware view. The thumbnail to the left represents the front of
the currently selected disk shelf. Clicking on the right-pointing arrow or
double-clicking on a row within the list will provide complete details about the
disk shelf. The state indicator will be orange if the chassis contains any
faulted components.

|
Name
|
Name of the disk shelf, used in faults and alerts. This is
initially set to the serial number of the disk shelf, but
can be changed by clicking on the name within the
list.
|
MFR/MODEL
|
The disk shelf manufacturer and the model number.
|

|
Device type HDD or SSD.

Revolutions per minute; the speed of the disk
drive.

Data
|
Total size of all data disks within the disk shelf.
|
Cache
|
Total size of all read-optimized cache devices within the
drive shelf. If there are no cache devices within the shelf,
then "-" is displayed.
Read cache devices are supported in
DE2 disk shelves with a minimum software version. For
software requirements and slot configuration rules, see
Disk Shelf Configurations.
|
Log
|
Total size of all write-optimized cache devices within the
drive shelf. If there are no log devices within the shelf,
then "-" is displayed.
|
Paths
|
Total number of I/O paths to the disk shelf. The only
supported configurations are those with multiple paths to
all disks, so this should read "2" under normal operating
circumstances. Clicking the information icon
will bring up a dialog with information
about each path. This includes which HBAs are connected to
the disk shelf, and the state of any paths. If the disks
within the disk shelf are not currently configured as part
of a storage pool, complete path information will not be
available, though it displays two paths to the
chassis.
