From the Actions list in the application pane, select  Element
Manager . Refer to the documentation for the native management tool
for your storage system.
3. In CLPR  on the  Migrate CLPR Resources  window, select the CLPR
number to which the resource is assigned.
4. In CU , select the CU to which the resource is assigned.
5. In Available Parity Groups  or Available Virtual Volumes , select the
resource that you want to migrate, and then click  Set>. This adds the
selected resource to the  CLPR table....

4.Edit the CLPR settings as follows. The CLPR number cannot be changed.
a. In  CLPR Name , edit the CLPR name as needed. You can use up to 16
alphanumeric characters but you cannot specify CLPR names that are
already reserved.
b. In  Total Cache Size , edit the CLPR cache capacity as needed. The
minimum cache size is 8 GB, and the size can be changed in
increments of 4 GB. The maximum available capacity (by subtracting the total usage capacity of other CLPRs from the total capacity of the
storage system)...

When periodically monitoring logical groups or DP pools during routine work,check the ranking reports in the Mobility tab so you can efficiently find logical groups or DP pools that have problems in their operational status.
The Mobility tab can be used to check the total capacity and usage rate for
each logical group, DP pool, or each volume in a logical group or DP pool. As with HDT pools, you can also check which volumes are using the largest
proportions of each hardware tier. In addition, the...

Reports for logical groups displayed in the Mobility tabSeveral reports are available on a logical group basis for monitoringperformance related items such as response time and unused capacity.
You can display one of the following ranking reports for a logical group in the
Mobility tab by selecting a top folder of the Public or Private folder, and a top-
level folder for each user group under the Private Logical Group folder:
• Bottom 10: Logical Groups with High Response Time

capacity. You can change the display period of the trend chart as needed,
or save the trend chart as a report after exporting it to a CSV file. If the
display period of the trend chart is seven days or more, the chart displays
the average of the obtained information for each day.
• Capacity Utilization
Check the total capacity and used capacity of the HDT pools for each
hardware tier. Based on this information, you can check whether the HDT
pool has the necessary capacity. You need to perform capacity...

Procedure1. From the tree view of the  Mobility tab, select  Logical Groups .
2. From  Logical Groups , select either Public Logical Groups  or Private
Logical Groups , and in the logical group ranking, check for logical
groups that are responding late, have a small unused capacity, or have a
large used capacity for each drive type (for example: FMD, SSD, SAS, or
SATA).
3. If the capacity or performance of the entire logical group is not
satisfactory, click the link of the logical group name to check the...

• To check if the usage capacity of the HDP pool is appropriate, from theActions  menu, select  Show Trend Chart , and then check the IOPS
and usage capacity of each pool.
• To check if the configuration and performance of each hardware tier in the HDT pool is appropriate, from the  Actions menu (or from the
Capacity & Performance Utilization  link), select Show Trend
Chart , and then check the capacity and performance of each
hardware tier. To save the contents of the Trend Chart as a report, click...
