IT28830: INCONSISTENT VSNAP USED CAPACITY VALUES

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The used vSnap capacity shows different values depending where
  in the Spectrum Protect Plus user interface the used capacity is
   checked.
  Example where different values are shown:
  * 'Capacitiy Summary' in the Dashbord window
  * 'Status/Capacity' column in the Disk Storage configuration
  window
  This is only a cosmetic issue. The issue is caused by different
  rounding functions being used when generating the user interface
  values.
  The exact value can be checked using vSnap command line
  interface using 'vsnap pool show'
  
  IBM Spectrum Protect Plus Versions Affected:
  All supported versions of IBM Spectrum Protect Plus
  
  Initial Impact: Low
  
  Additional Keywords: SPP, SPPlus, TS001987819
  

Local fix

• Verify vSnap used capacity using the vSnap command line
  - connect to the vSnap server using 'serveradmin'
  - run 'vsnap pool show'
