Declustered arrays

View the information that is shown about declustered arrays in block storage systems.

The following information is shown for each declustered array:
Acknowledged
Shows whether a user marked the status of a declustered array as acknowledged. An acknowledged status indicates that the status was reviewed and is either resolved or can be ignored. An acknowledged status is treated as normal and is used when the status of related, higher-level resources is determined.
For example, if a declustered array has an error status, the related storage system also shows an error condition. If the error status of the declustered array is acknowledged, it changes to Error-Acknowledged. This acknowledged status is then treated as normal, and is used in evaluating the overall condition of the storage system. In this case, if the other internal resources of the storage system are also normal, the storage system condition is considered normal.
Class
Identifies the drive technology used by the declustered array. Example values include NVMe, SSD, or other storage media types. Helps you understand performance characteristics of the array.
Disk capacity
The usable capacity contributed per disk in the declustered array.
Drives
The total number of drives assigned to the declustered array.
Last data collection
The timestamp of the most recent successful data collection for the declustered array. You can use this value to verify data freshness.
Name
The unique name of the declustered array.
Raw capacity
The total physical storage capacity of all drives in the declustered array before any overhead or formatting.
Recovery groups
The recovery group to which the declustered array belongs. Provides the association with a higher-level data protection and recovery structure.
Spare disk count
The number of drives reserved as spares within the declustered array. Spare drives are used automatically to replace failed drives and maintain data protection.
Status
The current health and operational state of the declustered array. Example values:
  • Normal: Array is functioning without issues.
  • Other states may indicate degraded or error conditions.
Storage system
The name or identifier of the storage system where the declustered array is defined.
Virtual disks
The number of virtual disks created on the declustered array. A value of "-" indicates that no virtual disks exist or the information is not available.
